Congratulations on Spotlight Jkay.

I've had a quick look at the park, but I'll take a closer look at it when I have time, then I'll write my review.

In no way is this the greatest spotlight, however, It was definitely one of the most amusing ones to explore. The clash of colors and elaborate structures added to the atmosphere which shined through out the park. The foliage and smaller scenery really vented off a very nice touch to certain areas. The creativity in some of the attractions was amazing. Even though your coasters don't necessarily "play by the book" they are unique and enjoyable. The vast variety of coasters types also added to the mainy positive qualities in the park. Great job, JKay. A well deserving spotlight

Why is the mainpage talking about it being SRU when it's spotlight?
Highlight the white text. I was being teasy with JKay and wanted to see how he'd react to "SRU" before the link took him to Spotlight.

I hope you are kidding BreakAway, or that was accidental. WME only dreams of getting spotlight....
...yeah...that was an accidental. Sorry about that brah. I was looking over the teams and was looking at the Ferocious Tigers. I wasn't thinking clearly.

But I'm fine now...I think...

Wow i'd actually forgotten about that park...never did much for me either I always though Lost Gem was better, even though it predated it (by a few parks?)
Anyway, Candlelight Times was more than spotlight standard. Still a favourite of mine.

I'm not trying to beg for responses here, but this has got to go down as the "bleekest" response to a Spotlight ever. RoB is still getting more attention than this is.

Oh well. I'm still proud of the park and had fun making it. I agree that a lot of the coasters were disappointing, but I see them as improvement for me personally.

And Phatage, are you trying to say this won Spotlight because there were no other parks to judge against it?.....your incoherent rambling has me puzzled, plz elaborate.

Great park JKay. The main highlights for me were the station and most of the buildings around the JuJu Racer, the Chocolate Factory and that huge maze. One thing I really enjoyed was the flat rides, your not inventive yet without a doubt. I loved the candy cane one with the 4 hacked together, then there was the hover savers and the bumper cars, even the go karts, great way to use the invisible hacks to back a ride up with scenery and change it's look. I think the Chocolate area was the favorite of all the areas, mainly for the factory, (btw the turbines were awesome) the flume and all the details like the pipes.

Your coasters did not really show much sign of improvement imo. I wonder if you even want to become a good coaster maker? Still get to many weird parts like the 2 drops on the invert, ect... However some of your rides are of course pretty good, like the Confection one under the lift of the B&M, very nice little ghost train and seem to be pretty good at rides that are almost main coasters like the bobsled and the mini coaster near the maze.

As said by Cork, there are a lot of parts of this park that just fun under the category of fun. Like the cherry picker, apple core, peanut butter cups, ect... It's an enjoyable park for sure. Also you still have a lot of buildings that don't have any meaning I can find, but you did put a shop or two in a few of them, so I was happy to see that improvement.

I don't know if I would have given it spotlight, maybe coz I know how fast you made the park and it almost seems unfair to us who build solo's at human speed It is great to see how much fun you have with RCT and how you keep the parks coming along faster then anyone. I still would say I like RMM more, but then again I have never been a fan of the whole candy themed park idea.

Congrats on another Spotlight, I am expecting another one from you at leased a month after H2H4 is over

congrats on the spotlight jkay!

after just taking a look, i want to say that this is one hell of a fun park. i enjoyed the theming, something you have definitely improved on over the past few parks, in my opinion. all the areas were great, especially the peppermint area and the chocolate area. following those two would probably be the area with juju racer and the peanut butter swamp. awesome work.

my only gripes are the fact that this entrance was basically the same as in RMM and the coaster layouts. the only one i didn't really have a problem with was mentha, or maybe the mine train. i really didn't like the woodie, to tell you the truth. it was basically the opposite of elegant, something i like all coasters to be. the three, sometimes four, shallow pieces into the steep drops really killed it for me. on the other ones, some of the turns were really awkward and didn't really look too great. and your beemer seemed way too short.

shit. that sounds pretty negative. seriously though, i love the park. your theming is the best i have seen, and i really enjoyed looking through it. it was a great way to take a break from homework. congrats again, jkay, i can't wait to see what you have in store for us for h2h.

Great Park JKay!
One of the most creative parks I've seen...IMO, the theme (Candy, I suppose) you used must be really fun to develop in a park...
Anyways...I made a ranking: from things I liked to things that were just good.
1-Creativity
2-Architecture
3-Colors
-------------------
4-Paths
5-Coaster
6-Realism (This park is not supposed to have it, is it?)

Anyways...I think this park is great...and it shows a lot of efford by you.
Nice work, again.

I haven't seen many JKay "realistic" parks. But it's fun to look at and a really great and colorful park to me. good work!

Sorry it took me so long on getting around to look and even longer to reply but it's good shit, just lacking the "it" factor for me that RMM had. A few sections are amazingly loveable, like cotten candy for example, while others, like peppermint, looked half-assed. I guess it's just the result of such rapid construction. I haven't built as fast as you have since my trio of runner ups in my first year here and those were (obviously) of much lower quality (as a whole) than this.

Congradulations on keeping the energy to keep it going!
