The '''Kagoubinôme''' was a variety of [[Hoodlum]] which was initially planned to appear as an enemy in ''[[Rayman 3]]'', but was cut from the final version of the game. The Kagoubinôme was in fact composed of two completely different, but complementary, [[Hoodlum]]s. One [[Hoodlum]] would have been small and thin, and the other [[Hoodlum]] would have been tall and fat. The Kagoubinôme couple could carry out two distinct attacks, playing on the size and shape of the [[Hoodlum]]s who make up his two-person character. At long distance, the smaller of the two perches on the fatter one, who starts rolling around like a ball. The small one looking like a circus tightrope walker steers him along, attempting to crush [[Rayman]]. Later on, in close combat, the large [[Hoodlum]] would attack [[Rayman]], using the small [[Hoodlum]] as a nunchaku.

The '''Kagoubinôme''' was a variety of [[Hoodlum]] which was initially planned to appear as an enemy in ''[[Rayman 3]]'', but was cut from the final version of the game. His French name would most likely have been changed  before the game's release. Since the name can roughly be translated to 'Hoodpair', the [[Siamese Hoodlum]] could be an earlier concept of the Kagoubinôme.

Despite the character's original and attractive game design, the Kagoubinôme was discarded by the developers because his first attack required a lot of space in the level and the second proved very difficult to program. The Kagoubinôme are one of the [[Hoodlum]] types that have been completely removed from the final product.


The name ‘Kagoubinôme’ would most likely have been changed to one containing the word ‘Hood’ before the game's release.
