Plum: Difference between revisions

In the [[Rayman (Atari Jaguar)|Atari Jaguar]], PC and [[Rayman Classic|mobile]]-exclusive [[Ray Breakout|''Breakout'' minigame]], [[Rayman]] must use a ball to make a cluster of floating plums of various colours vanish. Some of these plums have special properties, such as being very bouncy. Some cause the entire plum cluster to move when they are struck. Occasionally, plums in this minigame begin to flash with multiple colours; hitting a flashing plum will cause it to vanish and also release a collectible item such as a [[Ting]] (or others, depending on the version).

In ''[[Rayman 2]]'', plums are used to travel over rivers of water and lava. They can also be thrown at [[Gorilla Pirate]]s, who will be rendered harmless and can be used as makeshift platforms due to the plum being stuck on their head. [[Rayman]] can move plums by [[Magic fist|shooting]] at them if they are in front of him, or by [[Magic fist|shooting]] anywhere if he is on it, which will move it in the opposite direction. Plums bounce endlessly, even on lava, however they can be destroyed if they fall into pits of hotter, yellow lava. It is also possible to carry them and throw them onto posts, permanently or temporarily (in this case, the goal is to take the plum to a precise place), allowing [[Rayman]] to reach places he otherwise could not. Oddly enough only plums from specific plum trees will stay on the posts. For the posts where the plum will fall off after a few seconds, it is not actually the post itself which is unstable, but rather that specific type of plum.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLME35DtD1s Rayman 2: Further Plum Experiments] at YouTube</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66ht6r0NjS0 Rayman Revolution Interesting Plum Video] at YouTube</ref>

It was also possible to destroy plums with a fully charged [[Telescopic fist|shot]], spilling sticky juice around and allowing [[Rayman]] to climb onto otherwise slippery surfaces.

Plums also make an appearance in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']]. They are found only in one level, [[River of Fire]], where their sole purpose is for [[Rayman]] to jump on them and sail them across the lava to progress through the level. They cannot be picked up in this game.

Plums reappear in [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], where they can be used in a number of ways. They are much larger here; they do not bounce any more, and [[Rayman]] can carry them again. He can either throw them against spiky walls or spiky ground to create platforms, or in the water to sail through the swamps, though he can no longer control their direction. Thrown plums can also break [[cage]]s and kill enemies, as can walking into enemies while holding a plum.
