'''The Canopy''' is a level in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' and its remakes. In all versions of the game, it is where Rayman meets Globox for the second time in the game, and the power of his [[Magic Fist]] is upgraded by a [[Silver Lum]]. In all versions except ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', it is the ninth level in the game.
'''The Canopy''' is a level in ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and its remakes. In all versions of the game except for the [[Rayman 2 Forever|Game Boy Color version]], it is where [[Rayman]] meets [[Globox]] for the second time in the game, and the power of his [[magic fist]] is upgraded by a [[Silver Lum]]. In all versions except ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' and ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]'', it is the ninth level in the game.


The Canopy shares its name with [[Canopy (Rayman Rush)|another level]] in ''[[Rayman Rush]]'', but the two are distinctly separate.
The Canopy was originally called "The Wilderness".<ref>This name comes from [[Rayman 2 (early production)|early demos]] of the game.</ref>

===Phase 1===
===Phase 1===
This area is a chasm full of giant cobwebs, and before long, [[Rayman]] is being stalked by a giant [[Spider (Rayman 2)|spider]]. This creature can be defeated, but it is not compulsory. Rayman must climb up the cobwebs to evade the spider, find the two [[cage]]s and collect the [[Yellow Lum]]s there, before dropping down a pit and into the next area.  
This area is a chasm full of cobwebs, that appears to be the inside of a giant tree. Before long, [[Rayman]] is being stalked by a giant [[Spider (Rayman 2)|spider]]. This creature can be defeated, but it is not compulsory. [[Rayman]] must climb up the cobwebs to evade [[Spider (Rayman 2)|the spider]], find the two [[cage]]s and collect the [[Yellow Lum]]s there, before dropping down a pit and into the next area.


===Phase 2=== 
<gallery widths="320px" heights="240px">
[[Globox]] is being held prisoner in the area, but first, [[Rayman]] will have to defeat a [[red Henchman 800]], and then flick the switch that opens the gate. [[Globox]] will then follow his limbless friend, provided that there are no [[pirate]]s around. They both have to go through a passage that is blocked by laser bars, but [[Globox]] uses his Rain Dance to deactivate it. This leads to some cliff sides with gaps neither of the can cross, so [[Globox]] waters a glowing plant to make a flower appear. [[Rayman]] stands on this to cross the cap, then shoots at a wooden [[sparadrap]] which breaks a wooden pole down for [[Globox]] to walk on. Then, they come across a huge fire, which [[Globox]] gladly puts out.

Down the passage, another [[red Henchman 800]] appears, and [[Globox]] runs away to hide in a cubbyhole. When [[Rayman]] defeats it, he walks back to his friend to reassure him that there is no shame of being afraid of the [[pirate]]s and the [[warship]]s, and then wishes he has more powers. This triggers [[Globox]]'s memory, and he gives [[Rayman]] a [[Silver Lum]], which upgrades his [[magic fist]] - he can now charge up his shots which will make them more powerful.

===Phase 3===
[[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] come out into the open, but a [[warship]] appears, sending [[Globox]] into hiding again. Out comes a tougher [[red Henchman 800]], and once it's defeated, the pair move on, shutting down laser barriers with the Rain Dance. Down that passage, where another [[red Henchman 800]] appears, there is a small stronghold which is being guarded by a security camera of a sort. The only thing left to use is a small bush, which [[Globox]] grows it big enough for [[Rayman]] to hide in it, and when he gets to the door, the security deactivates the door. At the exit, [[Globox]] confirms that he cannot continue adventuring with his limbless friend, and wants to see his wife, [[Uglette]].

This level is identical to that of the original version. In the very first part of the level, it is possible to execute the "Gauntlet" [[List of cheats in Rayman 2|cheat]] (shooting repeatedly to gain a [[Power Fist]] upgrade) as it is a vertical passage. This is easiest to do when attempting to defeat the [[Spider (Rayman 2)|spider]].

==PlayStation version==
The level is mostly identical. The only difference is that it features a brief cutscene in which [[Globox]] informs [[Rayman]] he has to see [[Uglette]], as opposed to the other version which have this exchange during the player's control of [[Rayman]].

Another minor (and curious) difference is that when the player replays the level Globox will still appear, even when he is supposed to be captured aboard [[The Prison Ship]]

==PlayStation 2 version==
The Canopy in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' stays fairly the same as that in previous versions. Some graphical differences are present in the first area - there are patches of green leaves growing around the inside of the tree, and in a couple of spots the tree bark is broken allowing [[Rayman]] to see outside (but not go there).
The Canopy in this version of the game stays fairly the same as that in previous versions, with the exception that the Teensie cage does not count towards the total number of cages in the game, like in the PlayStation version. Rayman is also required to destroy the pirate ship in the third stage rather than just fight the pirate that comes from it.
In the third phase, [[Rayman]] is required to destroy the [[warship]], rather than just fight the [[Robo-Pirate]]s that come from it. The [[Teensie]] [[cage]] at the end does not count towards the total number of [[cage]]s in the game, like in the PlayStation version.

*A glitch is possible at the start. Jump on the walking shell and ride around, heading back to [[the East Plain]]. Rayman will automatically jump off. The shell, however, will carry on walking but will not be destroyed. Unless you exit the [[Globox's House]] area and return, the shell will not re-appear.

==Game Boy Color version==
In ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]'', the Canopy directly follows [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]], and this is where [[Four Masks of Polokus|the second mask of Polokus]] is located. The music is an edited version of one of the tunes that plays whilst [[Rayman]] rides a flying [[keg]], first found in [[the Echoing Caves]].
