Rayman Origins
Rayman Origins has the onerous task of reviving the glory of a series that, at the time of his first appearance on the PC in 1995, settled with the public trust that would allow Ubisoft to publish several sequels, and spin-off of various kinds, on practically any gaming machine output from then on.
As time has passed since that 2D platformer based on the success of its visual impact on sprites irresistible charisma and the advent of high definition graphics that has set new standards, with regard to the two-dimensional graphics, you are strongly felt not only side of the fluidity of the animations, but also the need to draw characters and environments strictly in HD.
Ubisoft Montpellier has accepted the challenge. A team of just under twenty people, incredibly talented for drawing two-dimensional, it is put to work on this new Rayman Origins, creating one of the shows 2D visual delusions and more attractive to this generation of consoles!
The plot, absolutely crazy, see the jolly gang of Rayman Origins party proceedings against a monstrous horde of evil creatures that have invaded the world, due to the intolerable noise generated by nullafacenza group of heroes. Seeing is believing! But on the other hand, the line has always been insane prevailing characteristic of the series.
And what about the gameplay? A classical approach to the platform genre, after many years spent behind crazy jumps and fist fights in three dimensions, was just what we wanted ... Rayman Origins is a concentrate of pure gameplay, which frustrates the player ever, but it stimulates groped to get more and more each level proposed.
Each world theme contains a certain number of levels, structured as the most exemplary of the platform also with regard to their extension. Each is divided into sublevels, punctuated by portals that serve as checkpoints and allow, in case of death of the character, of starting from a point reasonably close without having to start all over.
Hidden coins, cages full of defenseless creatures to be saved, enemies to be taken to slap! These are just some of the content with which you cimenterete in each of the proposals in different locations in Rayman Origins, literally peppered with small and large missions and secrets to find alternatives to accomplish, like Time Attack, which provides for the completion of a given path within a time limit.
Stand out in the recipe also atypical levels, such as shooting sessions, during which you must ride a mosquito and fight against flies, mosquitoes and sparrows giant angry ... Nothing particularly original in substance, but definitely rewarding and well balanced. Sure, if you want to score maximum points for each level proposed in Rayman Origins, you'll have to much more than minimum wage expected to complete any of the lesser evil.
Note that the qualities of Rayman will become available gradually, advancing to the different worlds and freeing sensual nymphs, which will reward our beloved eggplant with classic man-attack powers, or with the ability to glide using her blond tuft of hair as if they were the blades of a helicopter mini ... In light of this gradual upgrade, you'll often have to do some 'healthy backtracking, going back to visit more than a single time to hunt the previous levels of absolute perfection.
If you think it already so the fun is more than assured, know that even the planned cooperative multiplayer for up to four players, who will join the game at any time in the shoes of one of the crazy Globox or secondary characters who, from time to time, you can unlock. This system known as drop-in drop-out multiplayer allows you to make much more immediate, without going through the menu outside the current game session. The only regret is that it is not supported online.
On the technical and artistic team, Ubisoft has made an undisputed masterpiece, fully exploiting the features of the graphics engine UbiArt Framework. The fluidity of the screen is always optimal and the environments are rich with layers of parallax, which help to give a feeling of depth that enhances the amazement in front of a product already visually excellent. Even as regards the sound, the folly of Rayman Origins has been duly translated into sounds, rhymes, jingles and songs absolutely hilarious.
In short, while the Wii is king his majesty New Super Mario Bros., finally the other consoles have a 2D platformer Mr. worthy of comparison to such a sacred monster. Notwithstanding that, besides being available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, Rayman Origins has landed successfully on the same Wii, albeit with an inevitable loss of enamel due to the obligatory visual transposition to a lower resolution. Anyway, a must in every version!
