Michel Ancel's birthday

Post by Ubi-Mya »

Hello guys :)
As you may know, it's Michel's birthday on March 29th. I thought that maybe, we could create all together a birthday gift for him? I can give him in person on the 29th.
Who's in? :D

Nyeh! Happy birthday to Michel! :D
Maybe you can link him the UnLockRay project? That would be nice to see that, or I could mod Rayman 2/3 textures to face everything related to Michel Ancel? :P

Maybe we could create a special birthday level in Rayman Designer?

I'll totally make a birthday drawing for Mr. Ancel! I can make on myself, but if we're going to collaborate on it, I'm cool with that.

I might be making a video, but it would have to contain a Rayman 4 joke somewhere. It's some kind of law.

Since there are lots of questions asked in private...

Just see it as an occasion to give him your messages or art :)

Gah, times like this make me wish I was artistically inclined. I guess the best I can do is offer a heartfelt message of thanks for his creative efforts. Michel Ancel's creative vision is what spurred me to play and enjoy video games, and even if I may sometimes disagree with the direction the series takes, I will always respect and admire his work.

Dunno if words of thankfulness are sufficient enough, if they are, I'll try to write my thoughts down in a meaningful fashion. Probably not the greatest thing that'll be offered, but seeing how much of an effect Rayman has had on my life, if the option to express myself is there, I'll be happy to take it.

Maybe nice picture containing all Rayman covers and B:G&E with subtitle thank you.
And make it neat and clean.

Yes, B&G is a Michel Angel's game - designer, writer and director.

Nice background as a fireworks may be used from credits in Rayman 2, or in Rayman 3 from PS3/360 HD version.

There is an interesting pose of a Rayman when he inclines in a gesture of thanks in the beginning of Menhir Hills.
If it can be used somehow.

Pretty much this one.
Maybe a personal memoir about how exactly Rayman affected my childhood years and my overall point of view regarding video games in general.

Sounds like a solid idea to me (leaves to write a memoir-like thing for Michel).

I would really like to do something for monsieur Ancel! Though, it would be cool if all the Community could collaborate! :oops:
