Rayman is a side-scrolling platformer starring the titular Rayman, a big-nosed chap with no arms or legs. Rayman can jump and use his hair to hover for a short period of time. He can also attack by throwing his fists, or winding up his fists for a more powerful punch. He can occasionally find special power ups that grant him unlimited flying power, giving him the ability to navigate through tricky mazes.
The evil Mr. Dark steals the Great Protoon and defeats Betilla the Fairy. The Electoons are scattered around the world and Rayman must find them and defeat Mr. Dark. The Magician helps out Rayman during the journey by offering special minigames. Tings are collected for extra lives and new powers are earned, such as using Fists and The Helicopter.

The game is tough as nails. And yes, I should've been prepared for how tough it might get.
I played the fan remake Rayman redemption first, and while it recreated the game to a T, it provided some modern life changes like giving certain powerup early and giving more life or even infinite life, depending on what you choose.
Here, just like the first crash bandicoot, you have very limited lives with stages that are hellbent on fucking you over at any given second.
So bewarned. It is a wonderful game. But it will f you up.
