Rayman Beta - Atari Jaguar

This is a beta build of Rayman for the Atari Jaguar.
I don't know what the date is on it, though.
I'm not sure of many differences between this and the commercially released product. Please watch the video and compare it with the commercial release and let us know your findings!
I know that the opening screen is different -- where you choose levels. The girl fairy person that gives you powers might actually talk to you in the released version. I'm assuming so, since you'd otherwise have no idea what new powers you would have. Sorry, it's just been a while since I played the commercial version.

do you use fraps'?

[viMasterJag]

I've used fraps before, but no, for this I have a capture card.

[Raymanama]

capture card?

[viMasterJag]

Video capture card in my PC.

I hook my jag up to the inputs on the capture card and it records the audio & video while I watch it play out on my monitor.

and have you got this beta on CARTRIDGE????

wow!

[viMasterJag]

Yeah, a special cartridge someone made for me :-)

I compared Jag Raman (4MB) to my PS version (97MB inc music) side by side on my HDTV. Both look very similar. People go on about the Playstation version being better, but the only real differences are the PS version has a few more flowers, and a few more layer's of Parallax scrolling on certain levels. The Jag has some extra stuff too, has to process music, and decompress data in real time which the PS version does not. Given extra space, the Jag version could easily match the PS version.

I wish Rayman 1 was on n64....

I actually prefer the walking animation in the beta version.

[fr33eat]

I think he walks slightly differently, punching noise is different, maps on the very first couple of parts are different, screen just fades out and no 'yeah' at the end of a section (best bit of the final version!) taller explorer enemy things appear to be defeatable with one quick punch as opposed to 2 of them or one charged punch in the final version, music sounds different (although i'm only familiar with the ps version). I could go on but someone's probably listed all those already :p

[Scourgeandmephiles93]

@meowmmmmm You forgot to mention sounds. The Jaguar lacks sound effects. Still, I prefer the music here over PS.

where can i download this beta?

[METALMAN4Wii]

The background looks like a rip off of Donkey Kong Country for SNES.....!

[KirbyY15]

now you have to find out what power you got? how mean

[Superwaluigi64]

Rayman's move cycle and his hurt animation are different, his dance is different when he gets a new power, and in the final version, the lives would say "03", not just "3".
