Bite-Sized: Rayman 2 (GBC)

Post by Lens of Truth »

Time to follow up my Bite-Sized episode on Rayman for the Game Boy Color with its follow-up, Rayman 2. The Rayman Wiki has been instrumental in the creation of these videos! Bite-Sized is a series on my channel where I take a short look at a short game. I played the first one a lot growing up, but I didn't even know this existed until recently. It plays a lot like its predecessor, delivering a solid, if less cohesive, 8-bit platforming adventure.

I think this is a pretty extensive presentation of the game, well done! Indeed, the gameplay is rather solid, given that it reuses the engine from its predecessor, but it does certainly feel a lot more rushed, as epitomized by its infamous artwork. The final boss is probably one of the biggest letdowns in the series, too. :P

Aside from Rayman Raving Rabbids on launch day? :hap:

No, come to think about it, the Reveal in Rayman Origins was actually the worst for me.

Thank you for the review.

Personally I can't play GBC games even more than NES games. They just look and sound so primitive.
