'''Jumping eyes''' are a type of static enemy encountered in ''[[Rayman 2]]''. Jumping eyes do not move or attack; they simply stay in one place, jumping up and down endlessly, making a sound like that that of a bouncing ball. They hurt [[Rayman]] if he touches them. They can be destroyed by one hit from [[Rayman]]'s [[magic fist]]. They seem to have some connection with [[Jano]] and the [[Mini Jano]]; they resemble their cycloptic eyes, and are usually found in their territory.


'''Jumping eyes''' are a type of static enemy encountered in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]''. Jumping eyes do not move or attack; they simply stay in one place, jumping up and down endlessly, making a sound like that that of a bounding ball. They hurt [[Rayman]] if he touches them. They can be destroyed by one hit from Rayman's [[magic fist]]. They seem to have some connection with [[Jano]] and the [[mini Jano]]s; they resemble their cycloptic eyes, are are usually found in their territory.
They appear in all versions of ''[[Rayman 2]]'' but ''[[Rayman Revolution]]''. They are encountered only three times: in front of the entrance to [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]] in [[the Marshes of Awakening]] (absent in the PlayStation version), inside [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]] in the area where [[Rayman]] finds a blue [[Magic Sphere]], and in the first part of [[the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]].


They appear in the original version of ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', but not in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' or the PlayStation version of ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]''. In the versions where they do appear, they are encountered only three times: in front of the entrance to [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]]; the area inside [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]] where [[Rayman]] finds a blue [[Magic Sphere]]; and in the first part of [[the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]].
In the PC, Dreamcast and [[Rayman Revolution|PlayStation 2]] versions of the game, the texture for jumping eyes is reused to represent the eyes of the prisoners inside [[Robo-Pirate]] [[cage]]s at the beginning of the game, as well as at the end of [[the Prison Ship]] in the Dreamcast version.


Jumping eyes are not the only disembodied eyeball enemies to appear in the ''Rayman'' series; in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], enemies known as [[lightning eyes]] appear. Unlike jumping eyes, these malevolent eyeballs come in pairs. They take a much more active approach to attacking [[Rayman]]; they blink tightly to shoot small bolts of lightning at him. Their eyelids are blue as opposed to the jumping eyes' green-brown colour. Usually lightning eyes are embedded in walls and are thus inaccessible, but occasionally they are found hovering in the open air. When in the latter state, they can be defeated with four punches from Rayman's [[telescopic fist]], meaning that they have quadruple the [[resistance]] of jumping eyes.
Jumping eyes also appear in ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]'', the Game Boy Color version of ''[[Rayman 2]]''. Here, their eyes are more sinister looking.
