The game appears either to be set between the events of Rayman 2 and Rayman 3, or to be an alternative sequel to Rayman 2. It was not given the ‘Hoodlum Havoc’ subtitle, as Hoodlums are only being present as enemies in three levels of the game (Hoodlum Hideout, Wretched Ruins and Scaleman’s Keep). There are also versions of this game for some mobile phones, and it was ported to the Nokia N-Gage. The game was originally developed as a Game Boy Advance version of Rayman 2, with its Rayman 3 elements added late in its development so that it could be marketed as a Game Boy Advance version of Rayman 3.Įarly preview versions of the game still use the Rayman 2 level names. It is a 2D side-scrolling game with elements from the original Rayman game, Rayman 2, and Rayman 3, though it is mostly centered around the story of Rayman 2. Rayman 3 is a portable version of the console game of the same name which was released for the Game Boy Advance in 2003.
