Rayman is a shitty ripoff of Star Street.

LOL really? It is colorful but not to the point of being bad taste, like many euro platformers of the era. Anyway, did you try adjusting the tint or the color grading on your CRT?

Decent enough game, too many GOAT platformers on the SNES for it to stand out. It'd be considered a classic on the Amiga.

I didn’t like this game the first few times I tried it - the early levels are rough. But it’s a good game when you get used to it.

>>6618321
The fact that the webcomic is still going after all this time is wild.

>>6618492
The fact that the comic is still going after all these years is pretty impressive. I haven’t read enough to know if if’s good yet, though.

I just can't seem to like it, the character is weird, the overall design of stuff is pretty tripped out and weird as well, the soundtrack is pretty subpar (excluding Beach) and the difficulty is badly scaled, the game gets pretty hard, really fast

The comic's on hiatus while its creators work on a puzzle game spinoff of Plok (though I haven't seen progress of that in almost a year...)

Their previous title, a (now unavailable) puzzle game called Magnetic Billiards, took almost 5 years to be completed. A full platformer would likely be more work than 2 part time developers can do.

Cult classic.

only reason people know about it is because of the music
actually not a bad game, but being an ok platformer on the super nintendo, home of several excellent platformers, it kinda ends up being "just another one"

When the Video Games Live Orchestra came to my city I asked the conductor guy if Tim Follin was a jerk because he was obviously influenced by prog rock and all prog rockers were arrogant he told me I shouldn't judge people based on their music taste and that the Follin Bros were all nice guys.

True to an extent, but still a pretty decent platformer, especially for being non-japanese.
I think it has a very unique feel, not only because of the music, but the game has, dare I say, soul.
Its only flaw is not having unlimited continues or passwords, it's brutal.
