Rayman 2 Death animations

Post by bunnieblaster »

Hey

I just found out that in rayman 2 there are multiple die animations :P

For example when you are completely out of health and fall in poisioned water, you will drown.

When you come too close to the mini-jano's, they will eat you.

Anyone knows more from these?

Rayman turns onto his back and screams as he falls into an abyss.

No,thats exactly the same drowning animation.

When you drown in infested/poisoned waters,you can see piranhas.

Kind of old news, but there are 2 ways to get the fall-to-death animation.
Just fall off a cliff or (only tested in the DS version) moonjump for too long.
You can use the helicopter to prevent that from happening.

I'll list them all, since I've tested out with this A LOT. :P

-Falling off a cliff AAAAHHH
-Splashing and drowning in water (sometimes with piranhas and almost like he has tourettes)
-Running out of air under water and you flip and float upward
-Flipping backwards when getting hit in the water
-Drowning and holding your "neck" and turn and sink (<- yes it IS a different animation!)
-Getting owned by Jano's hand
-Getting eaten by Jano's minions

I'll post more if I'm forgetting any.

-Getting banned by Hunchman801, Rayman screams and dissapears
-Getting hugged to death by Huggers,Rayman screams and his eyes explodes in a bloody way.
-Getting infected by Weege,Rayman's head dissapears,and gets replaced by a Weege head
-Getting destroyed by Spiraldoor's facepalm (Just a joke spiral,dont get angry.) Rayman screams and explodes.

Sorry for the spam

But also,i have seen that in Rayman 1,when you re falling to a hole,sometimes Rayman will start moving its arms and scream : Woooooh woaaah waaah!,and die.It only happens SOMETIMES,for some reason it sometimes it doesnt happen

Also in Rayman 3,theres some die animations? I only see that when you die,Rayman screams, gets flat,and dissapears.

The Rayman 1 cliff effect is activated via "fall" blocks. If you know anything about Rayman Designer you'll know that.

That's because he goes off the edge of the map. It's not automatic. It's a manual thing triggered if you want a cliff somewhere other than the bottom of the map.

When R dies on a flat surface, he doesn't do anything. The energy he is made of disappears and the "try again" comes up.

Actually, yes, if you are completely out of health.

I went about recording some of them (though I never uploaded them to Youtube or anything).

Hey, I was playing Revolution yesterday and in the Sanctuary of Water and Ice a pirate shot me when I was underwater and Rayman TRIED A SOMERSAULT just like in Rayman 3 when you press the jump button. I know it's not a death animation, but it's still a ''hurt'' animation sooo...

Nice.

I found some funny things: (not death animations)

In the echoing caves:
- At the part with the gorilla pirate and the plum, take the plum, stand on it, move carefully to the gorilla pirate and when you hit the gorilla the plum will explode :O
- At the same part, get a plum, go stand on it, and shoot another plum. You' ll be able to pick it up. Holding a plum on a plum :P
- At the part with the flying platforms, hang on the side of the platforms. When they turn around, you will randomly die :P

In the PS1 version, there is a different death animation for getting caught by Jano's hand than the other versions.

1:26 to 1:28, there is also a slightly different death animation for getting swallowed by the Mini Janos at 4:10 to 4:13 (They burp afterwords), if you pay attention, the Mini Jano's health at the bottom left actually lowers when Rayman gets eaten, guess he doesn't taste very good! :hehe:
