Rayman 2: The Great Escape/The Canopy

For information about tricks this page might refer to, see the main Rayman 2 page.

• You can jump off the spider web and grab the purple Lum from various points along the web, including the very beginning. Climb up as far as you can, jump, and shoot the Lum. Video (#1)
• There are three methods to skip Globox's "Rayman is the greatest" text.
  • Face the wall near the plank leading to the pirate, then jump, shoot, face Globox, and enter first-person mode. If you did it right, your shot will bounce off the wall and hit the switch. This method also skips the pirate fight, making it the fastest of the three methods, but it's harder than the other two. Video (#4)
  • Kill the pirate, shoot the switch, and quickly run down the nearby ramp. This method is slower than the one above. Video
    • If you use this method and are in the wrong spot and/or facing the wrong way when the text tries to activate, the game will freeze. Video
  • Shoot the switch, jump off the platform you're on, helicopter for a little while, and drop into the pit. You'll spawn near the laser door and Globox will be free. This method is the slowest of the three, but it's easy and won't make the game freeze. Video (#5)
• After defeating the pirate on a faraway set of platforms, run into the lasers to death warp back to Globox. Video (at about 5:03)
• You can skip hiding in the bush at the end of the level. Grab the purple Lum, swing directly toward the door, and jump. If you did it right, you'll make it through the door before it closes. It seems helpful to keep A pressed and hold forward after jumping. Video
• In the last outdoor area, you can bounce shots off of various walls to grab the purple Lum. Video
