Rayman DOOM (new video showing 4 levels)

[XTUX345]

I have one minor suggestion – instead of having Rayman shout ‘Globox!’ when he sees his friend being carried away by the mechanical arm, you should have both characters shout. Globox shouts ‘Rayman!’ and Rayman responds by shouting ‘Globox!’ It’s only a minor detail, but it seems better – more natural – if Globox calls out to Rayman for help and Rayman responds, rather than Rayman spotting and calling out to an unresponsive Globox. I assume the two calls could be implemented as a single audio file, so you wouldn’t have to go to the trouble of creating a new invisible enemy to which Globox’s shout would be assigned or anything like that.

That is an excellent idea. I would perhaps try and and make Globox's voice sound far away and echoey, to increase the immersion and make it sound more professional.

Haha ok, you found it^^
I actually wanted to polish the version I have now up more to release a much nicer demo on this forum. But you guys were faster^^
Most of the levels have some added detail now (like signs and decoration stuff). And Level 7 is finished since quite a while too.

@spiraldoor
Thats an awesome idea. I will use that! Thanks!

Polish? Hm. You mean... em... translate game into Polish? (I know there is a concept "polish a shoes", so with my "language capacites" I do not want to risk a language mistake )
PS. How the Hell open that demo?!!!!oneone!!1!

The word "polish" without a capital means cleaning and making it look nice, in English.

First, you need a doom source port for windows, like ZDoom or PrBoom (I use Zdoom, but everything can be done exactly the same way with PrBoom).

However, a source port needs the original game file. For that, just download FreeDoom, a game which has all the original data that the source port needs: http://www.nongnu.org/freedoom/index.html (Download "Complete I-Wad" at the Download page)

After that, extract Zdoom (or Prboom) and Freedoom into a folder, pull "RaymanDoomDemo5maps" over the application icon with your mouse and select Freedoom (in case it doesn`t start on its own).
Buut here is the problem: It will look extremely unpolished and weird this way, because this version of the demo uses original Doom graphics that I not included in the file. So you will get unfitting replaced graphics from Freedoom all over the place - thats why I wanted to create a polished version with fitting original graphics for this forum, because many here don`t own the original Doom game. Also, Zdoom is able to add extra functions like looking up and down, jumping, blood splats on the wall after killing enemies or transparent projectiles like rockets shot by enemies. All these extras were not in the original game and I also didn`t consider them to be used in Rayman Doom. In the polished version, all these things will be disabled, and it will also include the right source port with Freedoom all set up to play.

OK, i win this demo... The last level is most frustrating one. Add the opton of jump, please. Fun with physics like great impetus helping you "jumping" from platform to platform is nice, but hard to learn. I lost 30 minutes with these awesome rising and falling platforms at end, and what now I see? The wall opens and the pirates trying to stole my last 13% HP...
PS. Delete this deadmatch level at end, please.

Awesome. Worked fine in Freedoom (prboom) on Ubuntu. I just wonder why MMMorshew didn't announce the release on this board...

But, when I'm trying to open it, I see:
---------------------------
PrBoom
---------------------------
CheckIWAD: IWAD tag RaymanDoom5maps.wad not present
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

I get the same error, under Ubuntu.

EDIT: I added the WAD file path to the prboom.cfg, now Rayman DOOM seems to launch by default.

Guys!
After some searching at Google I found another demo of that game:
http://www.mediafire.com/?hfu52hfaxb0zbuh
That is including 7 levels (instead of five that you found), and you finally can shoot at hoodlums
Also I noticed one thing about gameplay- Hoodstormer death animation is uncompleted (that means when it's dying it becomes dead Cacodemon )
I have got a lot of ideas for gameplay, levels, etc. So MMMorshew, please bring that project back. That would be awesome.
Also if you have got Freedoom as IWAD, 8th level would be very....weird? I know that isn't Rayman DOOM level but when I saw Globoxes everywhere and that beautiful and sad music...
Poor Globox.
Also thanks for voodoo doll in level 7. Testing how chainsaw affects on Rayman was very funny.

Bump out of curiosity, is this project dead per chance? Next to ROTD and RayTunes this was one of my first encounters with the RPC, and I thought this project actually looked kind of awesome. Fairly unique concept too, I thought. It's not usually all that common to take one game in one genre, and then throw it into a completely different one while still retaining a similar-esque feel to it.
Though there seems to have been no updates on this thing for quite literally ages. I'd love to know the status on this at this moment in time, whether you decided to halt it or life got in the way somehow, anything on the subject would be nice.
It'd be a bit of a shame to see that it's died a horrible death or something, but y'know. Happens sometimes, eh?

As I know the creator of this game is working now on another project and said:
"Maybe I`ll pick it up again and finish it, but my plans were very ambitious at the time."

[Shrooblord]

Their artwork was flippin' amazing though. Just look at this and try not to love it:

[ikke471]

I tried, but I can't not love it.

[Fouadtjuhmaster]

Are you still working on this?

[Shrooblord]

As I know the creator of this game is working now on another project and said:
"Maybe I`ll pick it up again and finish it, but my plans were very ambitious at the time."

So that would make me say 'no'.

too bad, thanks for answering

[todpole]

This seems like a fun little TC. While I have nothing against the violence against Teensie, because the pirates are that violet, but I don't feel like Rayman should us a real gun. It just feels weird.

[incognito]

Your sig is too big.

Like in Duke Nukem 3D there should be an Adult mode for the dead teensys.

[Master]

Hehe, this thing is dead, not sure why it got bumped.

[incognito]

I saw some activity i posted .

[Master]

Yes, it does seem that activity, regardless of whether it's good or bad, always attracts you, doesn't it?
