The Bayou: Difference between revisions

''‘Your horribleness, he... he has made it to the swamps!’'' —[[Spyglass Pirate]] to [[Admiral Razorbeard]]

Shooting the bombs to avoid their explosions, Rayman arrives at a small bit of bare land. To the left is an old branch with a [[cage]], collecting the two [[Red Lums]] inside. From here he hops aboard another barrel, and floats down more of the river until he reaches the bottom of a canyon.  The warship is unable to reach him here and leaves. When Rayman goes to the top of the canyon, he sees a switch, and hits it. Rayman hops on the bridges and he goes into a cave. There a [[Robo-Pirate]] sleeps.

At the very beginning of the first area, Rayman can choose to turn left and find the entrance to the [[Walk of Life]], which is one of two portals in the game that are surrounded by a circle of pillars with [[Ly the Fairy]]'s face carved on each. When Rayman goes near this, an image of Ly will appear in the middle, and grant access to the Walk, depending on whether 60 [[Yellow Lum]]s are gathered.  The Walk can then be accessed through the Hall of Doors.  While this is optional in terms of gaining full health upon finishing the race, the Walk must be visited at least once in order to obtain the 50 Yellow Lums scattered within it.

This level's layout is identical to the original versions except for some [[mosquito]]es, [[frog]]s and more [[piranha]]s dotted around the landscape. The Walk of Life can be accessed as in the original version and can later be accessed again through the [[Isle of Doors]].

In the cutscene before the mission starts, the scene where Razorbeard ate a Yellow Lum was changed to him eating a [[Red Lum]], because the PS1 version has only 800 lums and the hidden [[1000th Yellow Lum]] present in all other versions wasn't included (the [[Lum]] was included in the area with 3 switches in other versions but this section was removed completely in the PS1 version).  

The stone circle to the left of the entrance portal was also removed as it can be directly accessed from the [[Hall of Doors]] (which has no lum requirement).

The rest of the level remains the same except for some more Robo-Pirates.

In Phase 1, near the end of the level, there is a [[Yellow Lum]] on the side of the cliff. The last [[Purple Lum]] of the level has three Yellow Lums that Rayman can swing onto and jump to get.

As Rayman walks out from the cave in Phase 2, he finds himself at a clearing. On the side of a cliff is a prison similar to [[Ly the Fairy|Ly]]'s from the [[Fairy Glade]]. However, this time it holds a [[Moskito]] look-alike, [[Bzzit]]. Bzzit warns Rayman of an ambush, and soon Robo-Pirates [[Parachuting Pirate|parachute]] down to attack.  Rayman fights them off, but is quickly met with a new challenge.  A [[Yellow Henchman 800]] rises from the ground and begins firing its energy projectiles at Rayman. This is the strongest Robo-Pirate Rayman has fought so far in the game. Once he defeats it, the forcefield is turned off, and [[Bzzit]] cheers for him upon his rescue, then tells Rayman to meet him at [[the Pier]] in the [[Minisaurus Plain]]. Rayman nods, and pushes onwards.
