Anthony PiggottI think one of the things that sticks out about this level being so good is it's age! As we all know the quality of Jedi Knight levels varies as time goes on due to new advances in the editing programs that we use! I.E. A level that was reviewed two years ago that got 90% would probably get 60% to todays standards! This level is pretty old, it's the first level I ever downloaded and when I played it, my immediate thought was "I want to edit Jedi Knight!" It is a "Derra IV" style level, you have two types of good levels, one like this and Ryan's "Imperial Siege on Derra IV" which have hardly any cutscenes and some pretty clever objectives or puzzles, or you have a levels like "Remnants of the Empire" or "Yug'rin and Zak" which don't have lots of puzzles and objectives but are greatly enhanced by cutscenes! Anyway this level was really good, it is just a disappointment that the editor hasn't made any SP levels since!
NorthChaos..and as far as I reme,ber, the author did it in an amazingly short time, in a week if I don't remember wrong. Check the readme to get the right facts. :)
SL_Ki-Adi Mundi28 days to be exact Northy. He must have spent about every other day and both day working on this thing. Or something. But I mean WOW! This level just kicks ŧ§ man!
SL_Ki-Adi MundiWhoops! I meant to say "He must have spent about every other day working on this thing." Was thinking of something else when I typed it.
spaceboyit's good, but not as good as Ryan's level.
OuterRimYunSure, Siege on Derra IV is better, but this level is two years old!
CSF_Acea cutscene at the begining? where?
CSF_Aceoops... wrong level
Light StaffPersonally, I didn't really like this level..
Home_SlicedAway with your insolence Light Staff. :-) j/k What don't you like about it?
LightsideThis level RULES.....I think it STILL rules more than Seige on Derra IV. Seige was kind of slow and boring....no offense. And it looked recycled. This level has the GOODS!!

I play it OVER and OVER again.
Adm.warlord28 days???? OMG!!!! 28 days???? OMG!!!!! 28 days? ........
jedifreak101I think this level is way better than Seige on Derra IV. The author of Seige on Derra IV just copyed the whole outside of the building in level 6 for JK, and then edited some of the things! Seige at Vol Kanst didn't copy anythhing for JK levels! I think! 28 DAYSSSSSS??????????.........*Drooling*......"Slaps himself with a tuna*..... It took me a month to make Dome of Death! And that level
su*ked!
RyanFor your information, NOTHING in Derra IV was 'copied' from anywhere. Everything is totally original, though I was inspired by JK. Please get your information right before ranting about something that isn't correct.
Lord of the JediI would like to say that this is an excellently designed level. It has a great atmosphere and it is obvious that Dak(Jason Burton)took his time to make it. The sounds and new COGs added to the great gameplay of Vol Kanst. Excellent work!!!
JKFREAKHe the lvl great!!if you wold make a SP level about ep1 its gets the rating 100 if its possible.
KevinatorI love this level. It used to be my favorite until Siege came along. Please, don't make me choose between the two! They're both excellent, and portray atmosphere in different ways.
DakYou guys are too cool...

I made that level in 28 days sure as shootin. Ya see, I was trying for a job at LEC and my old buddy Yves was going to try and help me out. As soon as I started working on it he drops the bomb on me that he'd be quitting LEC within the month, so I worked daily on that thing and got it sent in a couple weeks before he quit. Alas, I didn't get the job anyway because I have no "formal" training in design. I wish I could've spent another month on it so it woulda been better, but imagine how bad it would have run on low end systems after that!!

Thanks for the kudos!

NinjaThis is great stuff, best singel player
level this year!!!! I hope he going to make
more levels like this.
MeEaTPeNgUiNCrApThis level looks tight so I am downloading. Siege Sucked beecause it was to slow and long, therefore no exciting. I like mowing down hundreds of sts. Anthony Piggott sucks ass more. Search for Leia, the last 2/3 levels had not mats. PURE DEFAULT GRID, and A SQUARE FOR HAN. The first levels also were missing mats, and they sucked
MeEaTPeNgUiNCrApAnthonyPiggot and Siege, I'm sorry for being so mean, but your levels need work. try your levels to see that people will like them before release.
ApoK_FlipmojackMeEaTPeNgUiNCrAp, I think you need to try out the Book of Cog, once its released...
EJM_W1slicerThe level was great!, The arcitecture was awsome! But the level was short, extremly short, Perhaps the shortest level ever made, but it was still good.
