Revision as of 03:08, 29 June 2022
A port of the original Rayman was being developed for Sega's 32X add-on for the Sega Genesis before quietly being shelved. This port was one of two planned ports that were cancelled, the other being a port to the 3DO. It was mentioned in magazines in the first half of 1995, as well as in promotional material for the original Rayman touting it as one of five ports Ubisoft had planned for the at-the-time next generation of gaming consoles.
E3 1995 booth
Although it is unknown how far along the 32X port got before its ultimate cancellation, it did get far enough that it was given its own booth at E3 1995. This is the only confirmed gameplay of the 32X build that has been found.
The most noticeable feature in this port is that the background has two unique layers of artwork with parallax scrolling that are not seen in any other versions of the game.
Magazine previews
Although the 32X port was mentioned in several previews, there is no way to determine if any of the screenshots shown really are from the port or not.
