I don't think the screenshots really do it justice - this is a first rate level with some marvelous architecture. The author has created Kessel the way I think most of us would have imagined it. I would have liked to have gone outdoors a bit more, but on the whole the interiors were just brilliant. Some short cutscenes, definately some plot, my favourite Michael May level, and the others were good :)

Wow... this has to be the best user-made SP level I've ever seen for JK2 :] Very good job!

Hmm... the storyline should've had more thought put into it (at least from what I see here)... the Kessel mines are dark, dank, unsanitary, and bad for your health. Only the most horrible prisoners of the Empire would be sent there... it was a most feared thing by the galaxy, from what I know.

Noone in their right mind would mine spice on Kessel out of entepreneurship...

But I'm not gonna judge this bok by it's cover... the comments make it sound promissing. *downloads*

The level was OK. A bit confusing with some of the parts.

Actually 'The_Mega_ZZTer' in the Jedi Academy trilogy of books Lando spoke of an interrest in mining the spice from Kessel. Wot entepreneur wuldnt want a stake in the billions of credits that can be gained from such an endeavor? So in such respect the storyline is quite credible.
Im downloading in anticipation to try this dousy hehe :)

This is a very good level. You have very good level design, a story line, and good use of texturing.

A few things to improve:
-I noticed a few reborn problems and some problems with the NPC placement. Make good use of the NPC dont enter shader.
-Some of the elevators had problems

Thats all i really saw that was bad. Good job. I look forward to playing more by you. I gave it a 9.

I thought this level was great. Maybe it was because I was playing it on hard, but it was very challenging. I thought the enemy placement was well done. the architecture wasn't amazingly but it was good. I liked having to fight with the prisoners but in the large fight near the end they were very hard to protect. The only way I could figure out how to beat that segment was to run through the clearing with speed and then fight them in smaller groups on the catwalk. Overall, a fun, challenging level. I give it a solid 9.

very nice level. unfortunately, for some reason my comp won't show the sky textures so when i'm looking out of the hangars i see white, but i'm sure it's not the level coz it did that a bit with some of the JO levels. i'm kinda stuck. after you shut off the wind tunnel bit, wot do i do then?

I love the archi and all. very true to the game. i could've mistaken it to be a true JO level if i didn't know that it's not.

Great maps. Good play sequence. Nice challenges to get past some of the obstacles. I especially like how some of the reborn gang up on Lando when you're trying to kill them. I found a creative way around that ;).

Thanks for a good level.

this is the first JO SP map i have ever played. and i think i chose a good one.
its fun, quite hard at parts. well made. and sometimes you actualy have to think.. something lots of maps for other games tend to forget..

also when you have to fight off those two or three shadow troopers is bad, but when after killing the first two of those nasty walking robots with the guns come after you.. thats realy hard.. and considering i had only 50 life left i have no idea how i pulled it off..

either way its a really good map i think, so i am giveing it nine..

awsome. this is one of the best JO sp levels i have ever played. great architecture and level flow. though i did think he went a bit over board with all the dark jedi piled in there. but overall a great map. download it now!

Another great level from this author. Very good atmosphere, and excellent architecture. Some might object to the enemy placement, which is extreme at times. Personally, I enjoy plowing through a sea of troopers and reborns -- just hit force speed and put 'em through the blender :-)

This was an awesome level that I replayed a few times. The flow of the level was great with a few parts that required some thinking. My only problem was in the detention area and on. I often killed the friendly NPC's when trying to fight enemies with a lightsaber.

It was good and I gave it a 9/10,

I really enjoyed this map even though I know nothing of Kessel. The environments in this really feel like a mining installation and it's got some great cut-scenes. It's awesome for a mercenary-type main character model. (I use the mercenary kyle model from JKII files) Anyway, great work mate. It'd be nice to see more single player maps for Outcast even in '08. Show Outcast a little love ya know? It's a great game still.

A Very Excellent Map, Highly Detailed and all.
You have put alot of effort into this and it is great. One Small Problem though, you should of made it so you can go outside onto the surface of Kessel!

I would like to visit Kessel....

Oh well, it is after all a fictional thing.

Later, upon discovering the Kessel level.....

Can't feel legs, must play Kessel....


The poor sap rated a 110/10 for the nice man who created this level. Thank You.. because now this player can visit his dreamworld anytime.

Continued (sorry for this it's just that I'm currently injured and my cast keeps on accidently pressing submit). IT'S JUST MY CAST, I DON'T MEAN TO KEEP STOPPING MY COMMENT!

So, I was trying to open up a tuna can and I tried to peel it open with my bare hand. And I got massive cuts on all of my fingers and all the way down my palm. So, I've been wrapped in bandages all month long. That's why I have nothing better to do than downloads these levels. Normally I'd either be at the dojo or the gym. I do martial arts, boxing, wrestling, and weight lifting but since I'm all cut up, I'm out of sports for awhile. So, now that I'm done explaining my injury, I'll finish my review in the next comment. AGAIN, THIS ISN'T MY FAULT! I'M JUST INJURED!

So about your level:
. It's accurate for Kessel. Just like in Solo.
. It's a historic planet. Kyp was from here.
. It's a good storyline. I like the plot.
. The secret areas are kinda easy. I had trouble with area 6 but I found it.
. Easy difficulty. And puzzles. Any bad player should be able to make it through this level.
. Nice cutscenes.
. Fun
. Quick
. Not too much space to download.
. And I'd be up for a sequel. I don't see how this is at all a cliff hanger. Kyle, Lando, and all of the Prisoners escape safe and sound but I'd be down for another.

To summarize all of this, there's nothing bad I can even think of to say here. This level is a 10 out off 10 for me. That's all from me...
