Rayman: Raving Rabbids

Imidlalo yevidiyo ivamise ukushintsha indlela yayo ngesikhathi sokuthuthuka, kodwa azikho ezinjengoguquko olukhulu kangaka noma olunezithelo ezinkulu emasikweni njengoguquko lweRayman: Raving Rabbids. Kukhishwe ngo-2006, leli thuluzi lathatha indawo ebalulekile emlandweni we-Ubisoft, libonisa ukwehluka kweqoqo le-Rayman nokuzalwa kwama-Rabbids—insimu-eyinhlanganisela yokuqala ezodlula uhlelo lwakudala ngokuduma emhlabeni wonke. Noma ligcina igama lomlingiswa ongenampho, umdlalo usuzwakala kangcono njengomhlanganisi wemicimbi emincane emibili-nye ebididile ngokuhleka, hhayi njengomdlalo wesigaba esivamile, kodwa njengeqoqo lemisebenzi emincane ehleli izinjongo zokukhombisa ukulawulwa kokunyakaza kwe-Nintendo Wii. Umlando wokuthuthukisa lomdlalo uyindaba yokuzivumelanisa nezimo nokuxolelana. Okokuqala lo msebenzi wakhulunywa nguMichel Ancel neqembu lakhe e-Ubisoft Montpellier njengomdlalo we-3D platformer wendabuko ogama lakhe linguRayman 4, iphrojekthi eyayihlosiwe ukuba ihlale ingathi uhambo olunamandla, olugxile ekulweni lapho u-Rayman ebhekana nokuhlasela kwezinambuzane ezifanayo nezinsomi zabafana abangaphakathi kwendawo. Nokho, ngesikhathi ithimba lithola lezakhi zofaka zokuqala ze-console ezizayo ze-Nintendo, i-Wii (ngaleso sikhathi kucatshangwa ngegama elithi "Revolution"), izinhlelo zabo zabona ukuthi ukulawulwa kwezokunyakaza kwempahla kunikeza ithuba eliyingqayizinkundla yokuhlangenwe nakho okuhlukahlukene, okungazenzisi ngokugcwele umdlalo omkhulu ungumhlaba wonke. Ngokubhekana nezinsuku ezibomvu zokuhlela ukuze kukhishwe i-console, izici zokuhamba kwendawo kwe-platform zavame ukususwa ukuze kuphathwe ifomethi yomdlalo womphakathi. Imisebenzi yokuthuthukisa yabelwa inethiwekhi yomhlaba jikelele we-Ubisoft, i-Ubisoft Montpellier ibambe iqhaza ezandla eziyinhloko, kanti i-Ubisoft Sofia iqhumelele inguqulo ye-PC kanti i-Ubisoft Casablanca yahlela inguqulo ye-Nintendo DS. Izinguqulo ezilandelayo ezathathwa ezifinyelele ezincwadini zezinsikele nazo zazethulwa, njenge-Game Boy Advance eyakhiwe yi-Visual Impact Productions. Umbono womdlalo wokugcina ulula kakhulu ngokweqile, ukwethembela ekuhlekeni kokuhleka kunokujula kwendaba. URayman uphapalele ukudla nesizukulwane somngane wakhe u-Globox uma kungenasikhathi abephathwa yi-Rabbids—izidalwa eziyinqaba, ezikhalayo, ezifana nezimbuluka zabantu ezivela phansi zibeziqhaqhazela ziseduze. URayman uboshwe aze afakwe endaweni yempi yomlingo. Ukuhlala, kumele abambe iqhaza ezivivinyweni eziningana ukuze azijabulise iziqhumiso ze-Rabbids. Indaba ihlukaniswe nge-“izinsuku,” lapho uRayman aboshwe ngaphakathi kweseli esibi phakathi kwezimbokodo zemidlalo. Njengoba eqedile izivivinyo, uthola ama-plungers—kuqala umklomelo wohlekisayo, kodwa ekugcineni amathuluzi asetshenziswa ukwakha umkhukhu wokubaleka. Ithoni liphathwe yokuqhekeka, ngokuhlekisa kuka-Rabbids okunomdlandla (nekhono elikhethekile elithi “Bwah!”) kanye nokusetshenziswa kwezinto zabantu abangajwayelekile njengama-plungers namabhulashi wohlanzi. Umdlalo wemanethiwekhi zasekhaya (Wii, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, ne-PC) uqukungise imidlalo engaphezu kwama-75 elahlekile izigaba ezimbili ezisemqoka: Indaba (Story Mode) ne-Score Mode. Ku-Story Mode, umdlali kufanele adlule ekulinganeni kwezivivinyo ezine ukuze avule i-minigame yokugcina ethi “Boss” ngosuku ngalunye. Lezi zivivinyo ezihlukahlukene nezishubile, zivame ukusebenzisa izinzwa zokunyakaza ze-Wii Remote ukuze zifane nezenzo zomzimba. Imidlalo ingase ibonise umdlali esuka ekushayweni kokuqiniseka ukuze agijime embizeni, ukujova ukunyakaza ukuze alime unogada, noma ukuphawula esikrinini ukuze ashotope ama-plungers emijahweni ezisemoyeni kumasosha angezileli ngaphambi kokuthatha izigameko zokulwa ezisethwe “on-rails” kuqala-person shooter. Isici esivelele somdlalo yizinselelo ezibhekiswe emhuruzini, lapho uRayman kumele adansise ezindlini eziphezulu nezindiza ezisheshayo zomhla womculo ofana ne-“Girls Just Want to Have Fun” ne-“Misirlou,” okudinga umdlali ukuba axokane umgunya wokukhishwa kwe-controller ngesikhathi somculo. Kubalulekile ukugcizelela umehluko ongafani phakathi kwezinguqulo zokuhlela. Ingxenye ye-Wii ibhekwa njengolwazi oluphelele ngenxa yokuthi ukulawula ukuhamba kubalulekile ekwakhiweni komdlalo. Ukuhunyushwa kwe-PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, PC (okushicilelwe ezindaweni ezahlukene ngabangani abafana ne-Buka Entertainment e-Russia kanye ne-Licomp Empik Multimedia e-Poland) kuguqula lezi zenzo ukuba kwikhibhodi nezintambo ze-analog, okuqoshwe ngabagxeki njengokulahla injabulo ehlanyayo yesipiliyoni. Ngokuphambene, izinguqulo zeselula ziqhuba i-DNA yomdlalo we-platforming wokuqala. Isibonelo, inguqulo ye-Game Boy Advance iyingxenye yomdlalo we-2D ogqamile obonakala kancane kuqathaniso nomdlalo we-console wokugubha, kuthi inguqulo ye-Nintendo DS izama ukuhlanganisa phakathi kwe-platforming nemidlalo emincane yomqhafazo wesikwele. Ngokubalulekile, *Rayman: Raving Rabbids* waba impumelelo enkulu yezokuphepha kwezohwebo, ikakhulukazi ku-Wii, lapho yabonwa njengomunye wokuqaliswa okuhle kakhulu okubonisa izinga lokukwazi kohlelo. Abahlaziyi basho ngobuhle bokuklama abalinganisiwe babathuthayo be-Rabbids, isihloko esinemisindo esivunyelwe nguMark Griskey, kanye nokuqhosha okuhle. Kodwa umdlalo wahlukanisa abalandeli abadelelwe uchungechunge, abaningi babo bekhathazekile ngokukhanqisa kwe-“true” Rayman 4 platformer. Ifa le-Rayman: Raving Rabbids lishiywe nsuku zonke. Ama-Rabbids abe zi-icon zamasiko aphambili emabonini, evezwe ezinhlelweni zethelevishini, kwizinto zokuthengisa, kanye nochungechunge olude lwemijikelezo olwakhipha i-Rayman ngokubeka lesi sigaba ngaphandle kwegama. Kwesikhathi eside, u-Rayman waba nokuqala kwelinye igama ekuhambeni kwezwe lakhe, ebuyela esimweni esivela ngebhanya ku-Rayman Origins ngo-2011. Ekugcineni, i-Raving Rabbids iyisikhathi sokugcinwa kwemibono yokulawula ukunyakaza phakathi nekhulu lama-2000s—umdlalo owulahla iqhawe lomlando ukuze wethule uphawu olusha, oluxutshiwe lwemidlalo elula yezikhathi zokudlala.
