Howdy, stranger!

One of my favourite artworks that Ubisoft has ever made of the series: a render based in the famous French Romantist painting from Théodore Géricault, completely "Raymanized".

An unexpected discovery I did in a visit to Marseille. A retro gaming shop was exposing this board containing many Rayman 2 art parodies, some of them unknown by the fans until the date!

How this interest for the Rayman franchise started?

I was in the house of an ex-neighbour which had a slim PlayStation 1 with a couple of games. When I went to the living room, I saw him playing a game with a very cartoony, colourful, happy and animated jungle landscape. I was marvelled to the amount of detail of everything in the screen. When I look to the left I see a character with a unique attribute, something that I've never seen before: no arms, no legs and no neck. I asked if I could play, and despite of his hesitation he let me. I found the character's attack quite fun and how the enemies died. I managed to beat a giant purple mosquito and to reach the first musical level. I took no time to notice that I was hooked! I tried out the sequel's DEMO in the same day that came in a PlayStation Magazine disk that the ex-neighbour used to have too. I became a Rayman fan from that day on. And that's my story!
