Well, what do you do when you plan to select the best 40 levels, and you only get like 25 submissions total?By His Fans is rubbish though, there was basically no quality control on the levels that fans submitted for inclusion
BHF might actually be the worst Rayman game, it's absolutely dreadful.Designer is really good too, though probably even lonelier by lyndo's standards

You add the same level 7 times with minor variations, and then you do it again.
I think the competition was carried out on site though, because the level templates aren't the same ones that shipped in the retail Rayman Designer. There's one Mountain level from Rayman Junior that shows up several times, just with a different name and different objects each time

I think there's only one really - in Image Level 6 - titled Don't Despair. A somewhat ironic name for the level, don't you think?Look out for the softlocks!

Yeah, that's what I thought but I was too lazy to go back and confirmI think there's only one really - in Image Level 6 - titled Don't Despair. A somewhat ironic name for the level, don't you think?Look out for the softlocks!
The name makes me wonder if the softlock was deliberate 
I liked the Magician and Betilla in those educational games, they make for a good company throughout the adventure.
True, the punishments can feel a bit harsh, but Activity Center is not a even a platformer, just a bundle of activities for kindergarten kids. You can stil enjoy the platforming and atmosphere of Brain Games as an adult, but I'm not sure what's left to enjoy in Activity Center past the age of 6.
I'm in the exact same situation, so I must agree.Now that I look at these replies I feel like none of Rayman 1 spin-offs worth my attention at all...
Maybe I shouldn't be touching them?..
Rayman Junior is worth playing imo. But then it was my first platformer ever, so it's got a lot of nostalgia for me
I feel that I must have asked this before, but do we know anything about this competition? The wiki states that "Ubi Soft opened a contest for Rayman Designer players to upload their custom levels to the UbiOnline server", but I can't find any source.Yeah, I'm guessing it was something like that

Of course, this is only my personal opinion and everyone has the right to enjoy it regardless of their age.
I brought up the template thing years ago on a different forum, and I felt at least some responses were insightful, but now I realize that entire thread was basically more hearsay and conjecture.I feel that I must have asked this before, but do we know anything about this competition?

The DSi version specifically has a huge knockback issue which results in Rayman being pushed back much more than intended, so it can be way harder despite the extra health points.
Advance tends to be considered easier, with 1 extra HP and some adjustments to cage placement, but IMO the zoomed-in screen makes it even more difficult and some platforms/mechanics are kind of broken so you can't reach a few extra lives.
Redemption is really the way to go if Rayman 1 is too hard for you, the difficulty curve is near perfect with only the final challenges or some bonus stages being very hard.
...Otherwise there's Rayman Ultimate on Pocket PC which gives you an absurd amount of HPs but good luck getting this one and making it work on a modern device!
I found Candy Château significantly harder in Redemption than in the original game, and I couldn't even beat Mr Dark there, but maybe I just don't know how to play games anymore?Redemption is really the way to go if Rayman 1 is too hard for you, the difficulty curve is near perfect with only the final challenges or some bonus stages being very hard.
