Rayman Glitches

[Hunchman801]

Yeah, I have no idea what caused that.

So I did some experimenting with Rayman Advance and decided to get all the powers first before I got the cages and finished levels and now this particular stage has become hidden forever for some mysterious reason and the unlock all cages code didn't reveal the level like it normally does.

So you didn't break a single cage until you got the last power? I have no idea how it could lead to this!

[The Jonster]

Yeah it was pretty weird. In fact every level after Twilight Gulch remained invisible unless I used the code to unlock all cages and even then the code didn’t work on that level.

The only reason I can think of for this is bc of the fact that phase 2 of Twilight Gulch becomes unreachable after finishing Mr. Stone’s Peaks, so in essence I never finished Twilight Gulch.

This is very weird indeed. On Rayman PC you can type the POWERS and ALWORLD cheats to unlock all powers and levels at the very beginning of the game, and I don't recall it broke any stages. Except of course, the Betilla stages don't show anymore.

I don't know if this was posted before, but I saw this on reddit:

Dolphin emulator glitch, I guess!

I've seen Globox do some weird things like this in other videos, but not specifically this.

I actually didn't know about this glitch before, it is pretty cool I think. The end is kinda freakish though.

Rayman 3 does have a lot of glitches which can benefit when it comes to speedrunning or scoring, but this one is more of a meme.

[The Jonster]

Oh yeah I've never seen this kind of glitch before in R3. And I did quite a bit of experimenting with the game some time ago.

[Steo]

I haven't ever seen Globox do this in all the times I've played, but the main Rayman 3 glitches I've done were super jumps which aided in scoring.

I was playing the Sanctuary of Water and Ice on Rayman 3D, and died trying to reach the waterfall behind Axel after clearing the boss. When Rayman respawned, the "Axel" subtitle returned, as well as the black, wide screen bars from that cutscene. They remained there until Rayman reached Polokus. It's a lot harder to control him with the black bars in the way!

I think that happened to me a long time ago, but my memory could be failing me. I don't think this glitch is mentioned in the wiki, I wonder if there is a video of it somewhere.

[Hunchman801]

I think I remember seeing a video of it too, though I could of course be mistaken.

I got a new one in Rayman 3D today. I was trying to reach the secret cobweb passage cage in The Sanctuary of Stone and Fire, and couldn't work out where to go. After comparing my screen to footage of the PC version, I discovered that the last cobweb was invisible! Fortuneately it was just a missing texture or a rendering glitch, because I managed to get Rayman to climb "the air" where it should have been and reach the missing cage.

Between this and the 1000th lum glitch, Rayman 3D seems to really struggle with its cobweb implementation....

I remember playing Rayman DS on emulator shortly before getting the game for pc months ago and I got this weird bug where Rayman was upside down during the cutscene after escaping the Buccaneer.
I always played this game on DS and never encountered any bug as far as I can remember though, so it's either the emulator's fault or the game was unexpectedly glitchy.
I even fell off the map on a couple occasions during the game (avoid these stairs inside the pirate fortress in the Fairy's Council!).

As for the pc version I think I didn't get any (yet!), but I remember Clark's cutscene where his eyes would look hypnotised in a frame. Quite creepy to be honest.

And Rayman Adventures? Kinda self explanatory I guess.
When you complete a level and you get stuck at the end of it after reaching the captain; you're likely forced to close the game and redo the level again. Frustrating when it's about a difficult level. If you manage to reach the score section and get stuck there, at least you completed the level.

That upside down Rayman is a sight to behold! XD

[PluMGMK]

Wow, upside-down Rayman! Was he just walking along as if everything was fine?

As for the hypnotized-looking Clark, I always thought it was done on purpose, to show that he's a bit on edge in that scene (he's about to smash a bunch of stuff, remember!).

He could be doing a handstand instead.
