'''''Rayman''''' for the Atari Jaguar is the most distinct version of the game. This is mostly due to the limitations of cartridge space and the Jaguar's weaker hardware. Differences range from levels having major gameplay and design changes to a lower quality soundtrack. | '''''Rayman''''' for the Atari Jaguar is the most distinct version of the game.

One of the well-known changes in the Atari Jaguar version is the heavily altered design of [[Mr Dark's Dare]]. Instead of riding on a [[frying pan]] in part 1, [[Rayman]] must follow several arrows of [[Ting]]s to reach the [[exit sign]]. In this part are [[corkscrew]]s and [[Swiss army knife|Swiss army knives]]; these assets are only used in this version and later on in ''[[Rayman Designer]]''. Part 2 is also changed; [[Bad Rayman]] does not appear at all, but more exclusive dangers like the blue lemonade pools with little icing platforms appear. Part 3 is mostly the same, with a few minor changes. | One of the well-known changes in the Atari Jaguar version is the heavily altered design of [[Mr Dark's Dare]].

The battle with [[Mr Dark]] is much unlike the one in [[Rayman 1|the console versions]]. [[Mr Dark]] only has 12 [[Resistance|health]] points, he attacks [[Rayman]] for a longer period of time, he only morphs into two creatures ([[Mr Skops]]/[[Mr Stone]] and [[Bzzit]]/[[Mr Sax]]/[[Space Mama]]) instead of three, and the creatures sweat and walk/jump away when they are damaged enough. When [[Mr Dark]]'s [[Resistance|health]] reaches 0, [[Rayman]] does his victory pose. While doing so, [[Electoon]] faces from the [[Cage|medallions]] appear around him, with colourful text saying "Well done". | The battle with [[Mr Dark]] is much unlike the one in [[Rayman 1|the console versions]].

In recent years following the release of the game, several betas and a prototype of the Atari Jaguar version have been leaked. The gameplay mechanics were most notably different in the beta. Some animations [[Rayman]] could do such as the handstand ended up being scrapped, the [[Ting]] counter was originally an enemy counter, and the HUD was placed in the middle of the screen rather than the top corners. | In recent years following the release of the game, several betas and a prototype of the Atari Jaguar version have been leaked.
