[TAS] [Obsoleted] GBA Rayman Advance by got4n in  

Playing This game always had me having an unsettling feel to it, I quite cant describe it… it felt so liminal/surreal and was also very hard to play

i had this game and remember only doing the first levels in the forest and that was it lol

5:36 WT* moment coming

One part that i love is when rayman makes friends with the mosquito, it really shows that even though you were at odds with someone else, it’s good to forgive and forget.

Whoever came up with the idea for Rayman must have been on acid. This game is trippy as hell.

So a ps1 game runs on a gba at full speed but sonic can't?

11:26 WT* moment part 2

This was the only version of the game I could beat because the PS1 version was too hard for me. I lost all of my lives on Bongo Hills...

Ah yes, one of the few games where you basically HAVE to 100% to clear... I was shocked to find out that the cages WERE NOT optional...

I always wondered why the music in each level sometimes cuts out. It happened so often where a certain instrument just cuts out from beat then a few seconds it comes back in.

What happened to using the glitch that skips the final boss by getting hit on the same frame you touch the final goalpost?

As a kid this game was very hard, I also remember it being strangely eerie, all those years I couldn‘t put my finger on it.

Not sure why the final boss music plays in a lot of these levels, but it's fitting considering how difficult they all are

when I was younger I liked how the cages are bigger and more detailed than they are in Rayman 3 Advance

jesus christ that screen size lol. must be bumping into shit all time in the gba version of this game

I love this game

The last level I remember was fighting the scorpion but the game glitched out for example I defeated the scorpion and nothing happens

Got4n is a young french guy for 14 years old (in 2013) he has been invite on the YT channel "Nesblog/Speedgame" for comment this TAS in an old video if someone want to see but its in french for sure 😬, i think its not so hard to understand the essential (Sorry i don't write english very well, i am french too)

This game shouldn’t have been ported to the gba for all the large sprites and all the graphical issues that came with it

This is how this game could look if it was released on the SNES. SNES like GBA was capable to run almost all graphical content from original PS1/Saturn/Jaguar/DOS Rayman and only thing where SNES and GBA PPUs were not enough were 255-color tiles. Only significiant change that Ubisoft had to make if it wanted to release Rayman on SNES is just reducing 255-color tiles to 15-color tiles. I know that the real SNES Rayman prototype was completely different game than the most common version of Rayman, but i am sure than SNES also could run whole this game and only part of the game's content which had to be reduced (if Ubisoft released PSX Rayman on SNES) are number of colors per one tile and number of all colors which could be displayed on the screen at once - just reduction the palette to 254 colors on the screen (127 colors per active tiles (sprites) and 127 colors for 127 colors dummy tiles) (from all 32768 colors possible) and every tile internal palette from 255 to 15 colors! PSX Rayman 1 from 1995 was not an exetremely heavy game for the SNES hardware - it was easier to render than: -Donkey Kong Country trilogy by Rare, -Toy Story by Traveller's Tales, -Mickey Mania by Traveller's Tales. If these games were successfully optimized to fit in these tight SNES restrictions, why PSX Rayman was not?! If this game was released on the SNES (in 1995 SNES was still more popular than PSX and even in year 1995 or later (1996 or even 1997) almost half of the top SNES titles were released - early SNES games made until 1993 were usually very poor) THIS COULD BE ONE OF THE MOST MEMIORIABLE AND BEST RATED SNES TITLES! This game's graphics and audio content fits almost perfectly to the SNES hardware. If it was released along with very similar PSX/Jaguar/Saturn and DOS variants in 1995, this SURELY could be one of the mostly remembered and bestly rated titles along with DKC trilogy by Rare, Yoshi's Island by Nintendo, Kirby's Dream Land 3 by HAL Laboratory and Toy Story and Mickey Mania by Traveller's Tales! What a shame that Ubisoft skipped SNES while releasing Rayman!

1:13:17 did he not take damage?

I remember playing the forest levels while I was walking on a busy sidewalk in the rain with my parents idk why that’s such a clear memory for me lmao

Love that game!!

It's a surprisingly solid engine port, but good lord those are some crusty MIDIs, lmfao. Love how they used the final boss theme for Band Land too

Why did you skip the gorgeous intro music? 🥺

Classic!!

I feel like the music has given me a nosebleed lol

The music kinda reminds me of The Smurfs for some reason lol

I LIKE RAYMAN HE'S THE HERO

Backwards Jump!?!?!?

I prefer the original soundtrack

QUE NOSTALGIA

Señoras y señores

E

They fucking ruined my favorite song

Rayman is one of the most hideous major video game characters ever. Leave it to Europe to make butt-ugly cartoons. Also sometimes Canada.

ALSO, DIESES RAYMAN-GAME IST ECHT DER TOTALE FLOP UND GEHT ABSOLUT GAR NICHT - 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
