I just found one of our own on dA earlier today. The Rayman for Smash group always has a lot of new images popping up.


How do you do it?
Like NSU said, there seems to be a lot of Rayman fans on DA. I never get that many people to see the stuff I post...well, until I had a massive art dump a month ago, which funny enough, had Rayman stuff involved with them.

They're really tight lipped about this, aren't they?

Speaking of trolling, here's the newest Retro Rayman.



Hmmm.... I can't help but to feel there's something familiar about this one.

Well, gotta say it took them long enough to Raymanify one of gaming's classics.

All we need now is Pong. xD

So, for three years now, Ubisoft has held a surprise at the end of their E3 conferences. They are as follows:
E3 2012: Watch Dogs
E3 2013: The Division
E3 2014: Rainbow Six: Siege
If Ubisoft wants to bring the hype, then they should show Rayman 4 at the end of their conference.
Then again, I could also see Prince of Persia or Beyond Good & Evil returning.
However, it's Rayman's 20th anniversary. Rayman 4 needs to happen, Ubisoft.

Let's hope they save the best for last, namely a Rayman 4. I can't stand having their conference to end on a sour note this year.

Any Rayman game is fine at this point, even if it's a 2D platformer.
As long as it comes to Wii U or 3DS, Rayman has a good shot at making it in as Smash DLC.

What do Earthbound, Killer Instinct and Rayman have in common? They were all at the first E3.

Why has nobody ever pointed this out before? This may not be Macy's Day Parade material, but it looks awesome.

Back in E3 2010, to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Rayman, Ubisoft announced Rayman Origins, which was set to be the grand return for Rayman.
It may have been 5 years ago, but it's still on our minds.
The year is 2015, and Rayman and E3 are turning 20 this year. It's also been nearly 10 years since that Rayman 4 trailer was released, resulting in a game that nearly killed the franchise.
Much like how Rayman made his grand return to the 2D platformer 5 years ago, it would only seem right to have him return to the 3D platformer. It would be quite a way to celebrate one of gaming's most unique and beloved characters.
If Ubisoft truly wants to impress this year, they're going to have to pay homage to the character that put them on the map.
There would be no Ubisoft had it not been for Michel Ancel and Rayman.

I agree with you, we've seen that Rayman made his return to the 2D very well. Why don't we see his return to the 3D platforms?

I know. But I'm talking about this.

I wonder what happened to that bit, why wasn't that in the final game?

That actually looks really cool! I'm impressed with the quality.

They stated it was just a test demo to showcase for E3. But yeah, it stinks that it's not in the final game in any form.

BTW, didn't Ubisoft recently grabbed the trademark for Tetris last year?

I think they got the publishing rights, but the trademark is owned by the Tetris Company.

I can't seem to find many animated sprites from Rayman 1, anyone have a secret stash/know how to rip and animate them?

Here are some animated sprites, I don't know how to rip them, maybe others can help you.

Extra:

xD Haha, oh, you. You and that R3 Ray gif

Well, I wonder this as well, but I guess no one has went out of their way to rip Ray's sprites from R1 (PS1) for some reason... But I wish I had them too...

The normal sprites are in Spriters-resource:

They're not animated but I think there are all the Rayman animations. they're from the GBA version I guess.

You would think a game as well animated as the original Rayman would have the animated sprites ready to go on the internet.

Nope.

Yeah, I am aware of those sprites of R1 Ray. But I checked and it's not every animation I seen happen in the original game for some reason, but I guess it's not that easy to do I suppose...

I'm working on splitting the one in the middle into separate parts.

But it's missing a lot of the animations from the game, like the stage clear, shudder, look around, etc.
