TAKE THE PLUNGE INTO THE IMAGINARY WORLD OF RAYMAN
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS (June 23, 1994) -- During the Consumer Electronics
Show this week, UBI Soft will take you on an adventure into the
imaginary world of Rayman, UBI Soft's first game for the Atari Jaguar,
scheduled for release during the 4th Quarter.
Join Jimmy, a 10 year old who escapes reality by entering "Hereitscool",
a fantasy kingdom he has created within the realms of his computer. When
in Hereitscool, Jimmy becomes Rayman, a superhero who gives animated
life to everything around him, (mushrooms, insects, trees, rocks,
mountains...) creating an unlimited amount of friends and kingdoms.
But an evil power has entered Hereitscool and is out to destroy
everything he has created. He must use his superhero powers to save
his friends before it's too late!
Rayman has more than 10 levels, each level is 40 screens long by 4
screens high giving it a huge capacity for horizontal and vertical
scrolling, the speed is extremely fast (25 frames per second) and the
graphics are stupendous, offering more than 16 billion colors. There are
more than 50 animated enemies Rayman must face, in addition Rayman
himself has more than 50 animations including walking on his hands,
doing a helicopter spin which enables him to fly, and when he gets
impatient he dances or sticks his tongue out.
Look for Rayman on the Jaguar during the 4th Quarter! We "hear it's
cool"!
