Rayman Designer

Rayman Designer (also known as Rayman's World in Germany and as Rayman Gold in the bundle with the same name) is a PC sequel to the original Rayman game, which features 24 new maps called Rayman's New Levels, and a program called Rayman Mapper that enables players to create their own levels, or play levels downloaded from others. Levels could previously be shared to the Ubisoft server from where you could also download user created levels. This service is however no longer active and the only way to download levels is by getting the level file and exporting it using the Rayman Mapper program.

Gameplay in the 24 official levels, as well as new ones created by fans, occurs in the same six worlds as the original Rayman game, but does not involve finding cages and freeing the Electoons inside. Instead, Rayman must collect 100 blue Tings to make the exit sign appear, a task that also involves collecting Tings of various other colours to make other items appear or disappear (most often platforms or blocking sprites, respectively). User created levels do however not require you to collect specifically 100 tings as the creator may choose to have less tings. All tings places in the level do however need to be obtained for the exit sign to appear.

Together with the original game, Rayman Designer is included in Rayman Gold, Rayman Forever and Rayman Collector. The latter two compilations also added 40 new levels designed by fans (entitled Rayman Par Ses Fans / Rayman By His Fans), and Collector also featured 60 by Ubisoft themselves (entitled 60 Niveaux Inedits / Rayman 60 Levels).

Hacking Rayman Designer

In late 2007, the ability to hack and modify Rayman Designer was discovered, allowing users to create their own graphic tiles for the mapper, as well as modifying and adding their own events to the Events Editor, and much more.

Trivia
