Rayman Pirate-Community

Impressed to see the SNES prototype using the same collision system as the Jaguar version. I'm sure there are many more parallels to find!

Well, they're cartoon characters, sort of, and the electoons gravitate around the protoon.

Guess that makes sense

Am I the only one that feels there was scientific inspiration behind the relationship between the Great Protoon and the Electoons?

Maybe it was a repurposed left over from the Jimmy days of Rayman

The gba music is just heavyly compressed ps1 music, right?

PC music, no? Like - single looping track for level, not individual segments. In fact, probably less, as the Wiki claims that certain tracks were downright removed.

I wonder if in the original SNES game the goal was to collect pieces of an "anti-virus" software so you could beat the virus.
And the various pieces of it form the equivelent of "The Great Protoon" that could defeat "Mr Dark".

Yeah several tracks seem to be removed. The remaining tracks seem to be of lower quality and some of them are also changed in pitch. I remember multiple people joked about the soundtrack being like earrape.

There are a few exclusive tracks too though. I don't think it's a compressed version, it's the raw MIDI for decoding by the GBA's (inferior) sequencer. Right?

There’s 2-3 tracks that are exclusive to Advance yeah.

This one in particular is totally exclusive to this version and there’s no other version of it

I was listening this soundtrack into the Rayman Redemption game, oh, so it was from Rayman Advance

There's also this one that came from Advance, and honestly this is one of the songs I liked. I'm glad Ryemanni put this one in his game!

Where can we listen to this music? I don't recognize it.

I got both the songs I posted off of Raytunes, which you can get to here:

I think Ray296 asked where in the game the music actually plays.

This.
Sorry for bad english ah!

Oh, no worries, your English is fine, I just gave the wrong answer is all.

Anyways, you can hear this song in the first phase of Mr. Stone's Peaks after helping the Musician make a new guitar from the large rock you destroy at the beginning.

I wonder if the music could have sounded better

Maybe if they just converted the Jaguar OST

Yeah, I don't understand why they didn't just do that.
