Script

*The script is exactly the same as it is in the video as In my voice recordings I decided to change, remove and add more Information however this is what my voice recordings is based on. 

In the first rayman in the rayman franchise the player is played as Rayman and he can do movements such as jumping, crawling and a movement called grimance.
Grimance is Rayman only ability to defend himself, he does this by stretching out his mouth and doing a silly face which will frighten the most basic enemy which is called 'living stones'. To get more advanced movements he has to interact with a character called Betilla who is a fairy and a character within some of the levels.
One of the first permanent moves is basically where Rayman is able to throw out his fist and hit an enemy to defeat them to make this do more damage than it usually does there is a power up called speed fist and golden fist.
Another permanent move is hanging and grappling fists. Hanging allows Rayman to hang onto ledges while grappling fists allows Rayman to grab onto objects such as the flying rings.
Instead of having double jump Rayman has an ability to tie his hair up and fly/guide almost like an helicopter would do although Rayman can only permanently  guide with his hair e.g guide onto a platform which is to far for a single jump. He can also get a power up called super helicopter which allows Rayman to use his helicopter guide much longer so he can basically fly by using his hair.
The main feature i noticed in this particular ray man game is that you are able to interact with the characters you come across in the level. You are able to talk to these characters and they will either give you a tip/hint or a special item. For example the fairy wants to give Rayman power ups.

Script 2

In Rayman legends which was released 18 years after the first Rayman in 2013. The layout of the screen has changed for example in Rayman legends there is only the health and points in the left hand cone while in the first Rayman it was in left and right. Although the levels in Rayman legends has changed a lot since he first Rayman for instance there is a lot more detail. Even before picking the level there is more detail within the game e.g. jumping into a picture frame to jump into a level. Plus you don’t have to play the game with just Rayman you have the ability to change into different characters which I personally think each character have different stamina. For example the character called globox isn’t as good as jumping than Barbara. In Rayman legends there are different kinds of worlds and levels such as challenging levels where you have a certain amount of time to save the teenies before the get blew away by a rocket. Or the music levels where you collect Teensies.
Even though the levels are different there is still some similarity throughout the franchise for instance he is still able to crawl, fly, punch etc although he doesn’t meet Betitila the fairy anymore and meets a wizard which gives him the ability’s to still do super punch etc. 
Survey




Survey 

I had 6 responses from my survey. Some of the responses ranked the legendary level design first simply because it seemed like it had more detail, looks more adventures and has a higher bit rate/Better graphics. I do agree with this feedback because legendary has a lot more action than the original Rayman and requires a lot more skill and attention than Rayman 1995.

Here are the images Of my survey; 















Overall rayman legends had been sold over 25 million units by the year 2014 this is because rayman legends has several different levels and is similar to the original rayman but with more vivid colours and a more unique design. Although rayman original in 1995 sold 900,000 copies with in two years It is also the best PlayStation game of all time in the United Kingdom, with around 5 million copies sold, beating Tomb Raider II and Gran Turismo in the country.  However this means that rayman legends sold over 24 million than ray man 1995 did within the first week from international sales although the main software which had the most copies was the wii U even though the game failed to meet the sales expectations until November 2013 when ray man was approaching the one million units and by November 2014 the game was still selling.
