I might as well throw my hat into the ring and write up a wall of my biggest criticisms. I've kept the criticisms mostly focused on the content new to 2.2, rather than the content that was kept mostly unchanged from 2.1.

Added Midnight Freeze/Frost Columns Zone, Azure Temple Zone, and Black Hole Zone (MP_ICE, ATZ, BHZ respectively—not to be confused with SPEC8, which is already in the mod!) With this update, I've gotten all the stuff I consider high priority finished at last! While there's plenty of multiplayer...

Ranked best to worst (copied from the OLDC discussion thread)

Somewhat last-minute, but here are my reviews for each level! Some of the reviews may be a little hastily written.

Since 2.2.1, the game saves per act instead of per zone, so that's a moot point now.

I'm guessing the first line of this post was meant as sarcasm? You didn't explain why you thought your suggested shield change wouldn't mess up the shields' balance, but rather mentioned something totally different related to shields. In any case, I don't see the issue of SRB2's shields...

Are you saying that the whirlwind shield should be replaced with a shield that does the attraction shield's homing attack? I think that's a pretty weird idea. Say what you will about shield abilities, but I actually like the balance between the whirlwind and attraction shields in SRB2: the...

Personally, I find it more confusing for Amy's shield abilities to be activated by double jump unlike all other characters. The inconsistency with which key uses the hammer is a little annoying, but I don't think there's a better solution to this problem. I normally use jump+jump when hammering...
