![]() ![]() This is much easier said than done, you’ll be repeating these stages a lot. It requires you to stay right on it’s heals, using all your skills at the perfect time. These levels are a little different in that you spend it chasing a treasure chest. If you collect enough Electoons then you can unlock each stage’s treasure chest level. Finally there’s one for beating the level in a par time, though I must admit I never managed to get one of those in the time while I was playing (I also never really tried to get one of those). ![]() There’s also two Electoons that are gotten by collecting a set amount of Lumes, which makes grabbing them all the more important. At first I found them a little tough to find but after a while I got used to hearing when they were nearby and spotting the secrets. You always get one for finishing a level, then there’s two more that you can find hidden away into nooks and crannies around the levels. Electoons are harder to get as each level only has 6 (or 3 in the SHMUP levels, but I’ll talk about that later). The Lumes tend to be laid out in the path you want to take in the level, which helps with knowing when to jump off of walls or when to slide. Lumes are similar to coins or rings in other platformers and you can get them just by touching them. ![]() Instead your goal is collect Lumes and Electoons on each level. There is some light fighting in the game, but it’s not nearly the focus. Throughout the game you’ll find yourself jumping from platform to platform, running on walls, swimming and more. Rayman Origins is a 2D platformer that makes use of Rayman’s agile abilities. I didn’t really find it a huge loss though. Because of this the livid dead put them in cages which they break out of right away and proceed to… adventure I guess? Following the introduction the plot pretty much just disappears and never really bothers to show up again. Rayman finds himself relaxing with Globox and his friends when they accidentally wake the livid dead. Rayman Origins is not named so because it’s a prequel or reboot, but because it’s a return to the roots of the series. Then one day I wake up to see a 2D Rayman game has suddenly become a critics darling and I’m really confused. After disappearing for a while there was suddenly a long stretch where Rayman was all about minigames with the rabbids. I remember my friend owning one of the games, I’d guess it was Rayman 3, on his computer but I never really cared for it. There may be some differences between versions. Reviewer’s note: I played this game on the Playstation Vita.
