What does the amount of pixels per sprite have to do with bitness? The indexing?

Presumably, considering people refer to “8bit” and “16bit” eras, but maybe I just used the wrong terminology

8-bit and 16-bit refer to the number of bits per pixel, not the number of pixels per sprite. The PC version of Rayman 1 and its spinoffs used 8-bit colour, and the non-PC versions used more colours (though I can't remember whether it was 16-bit or just using different palettes per sprite – I reckon the latter). Then the games using Rayman 2's engine used 15-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit colour for different textures (at least judging by the Raymap code). I'd say by Rayman 3, everything was using 32-bit colour, as it still does today!

Yep, so that’s what I meant by Rayman being 16 bit

You said 32-bit though

Dammit! Guess I’ll reply before jonster can make a joke about me not proofreading my posts

Some Rayman fan Greengoop is!

Unpopular(?) opinion: Rayman Mini was the best Rayman mobile game.

I personally think Fiesta Run is the best, but they truly all suck... except adventures

Mainly because of the fact you can only run in one direction. I feel like rayman should be explorative, not... whatever this crappy run in a straight line forever formula is.

Uh... also, I love Gourmand Land. Best world in Origins, wish they had more levels that weren't just... cooking hell. They did the level for El Stomacho beautifully though.

Mini has beautiful backgrounds but overall crappy and boring

Well, I gotta thank you for actually coming up with an unpopular opinion for this thread!

If you have an android, you can download them for FREE here! (this excludes Adventures and Mini)

But if you wanna play on your PC, you can buy them straight from the ubisoft store. It's a waste of money imo but I still bought them

Damn it! Im on apple so i cant... though i dont think im missing out on much TBH..

You could get a free 30 day trial for apple arcade as I did to play Mini, but it's also not worth it LOL

Again, beautiful backgrounds but there's really nothing to it.

You can jailbreak your phone and download practically anything, or just download them on your computer

Having a jailbroken phone sounds fun as hell but I personally wouldn't try it because I always mess something up

I think I’d rather jailbreak a used iPhone I picked up at CeX than the one that costs £250 I use on a daily basis

I would never do it on my personal phone tbh, I would rather do it on my crappy android that I installed the previously mentioned APKS on

Android is a good operating system as long as you have a good device, I’ve found from experience. Anything under £100 can barely function

Personally, I'm an apple glazer but I don't really care what I have, as long as it works

Guess that once my laptop i will just run an android VM and play the games!
