Functions to load levels from all worlds exist, but only the first two have actual maps. This version is a later build from the prototype, now including proper collision and all the worlds in the ROM as in the final version.
The world map, as seen in the early Atari Jaguar prototype. The Magician now also holds a staff, which can be seen in the intro of the final game. This was not included in the final game due to the newly made multi-platform engine only allowing a set amount of objects per level, unlike the Jaguar engine which allows objects to be spawned in after the level has been loaded. This versions also includes a different type of gendoor which can spawn multiple enemies at random. Other differences include the small powers which have a variant which flashes between red, yellow and green. Mr Stone also appears, and although he has several referenced animations they all lead to the only one included in the ROM, which includes placeholder graphics. Image data exists for the tentacle flower, but the data to parse it or any of the animations are not included. Unlike any of the other known ROMs for the game this one includes a reference list where each block of referenced data is names, ranging from functions to animations. No game over system has been implemented either, meaning that when all lives are lost the counter cycles back to 99. Only the lives counter and five of the hit points made it into the final game. An icon of an Antitoon is displayed instead of the Tings icon, and apparently it counts and represents how many enemies have been defeated. There is also a very early looking heads-up display which is centered rather than to the left and right, there are more hit points than normal and the word ‘POW’ is between that and the lives counter. Interestingly, Rayman can also perform handstands and attack with his feet, and his fist can be charged up to be more powerful, which is displayed with an icon at the bottom left corner with the word ‘Nova’ next to it. Not all objects have collision detection, such as hunters and Moskito. This version begins with Rayman dropping down in a Dream Forest level, and getting stunned the second he hits the ground, which he does when falling from great heights. Along with this leaked prototype, there is also an early demo version, which displays even more differences between the final version. Two months later, this was leaked to the public along with 19 prototypes or other Jaguar titles. On 25th August 2008, a YouTube video showing an early prototype of the Atari Jaguar version was uploaded.
TYPE_GRAP_BONUS (148) - gives Rayman the ability to grab (DoGrapBonusRaymanCollision).TYPE_LIDOLPINK2 (144) - unique Electoon command (DO_ONE_PINK_CMD).The following objects remain unused across all versions of the game: Reasons for this plot being scrapped are unknown. When Hereitscool became infected with a virus, Jimmy entered his virtual world and took on the persona of Rayman in order to defeat the virus. The original plot followed a boy named Jimmy who created a world on his computer called Hereitscool. According to an advertisement poster, a similar plot from the cancelled SNES version was supposed to be used in the Atari Jaguar version.
