The Longest Shortcut

Part 1. Everything on the ground floor can be taken in one combo, but as the green gems don’t yield any combo points after 15 items, it is more profitable to split it into two combos. These two combos, however, will prove to be some of the most difficult and annoying combos in the entire game.

The first combo is quite simple; hit the shoe 9 times in combo. (630 points).

The second combo starts with the 9 red gems in the tunnel. After taking the last of the red gems, kill the shoe in combo. This will give you the Lockjaw. Now run like the wind to a certain spot where you can get the Matuvu in combo. Continue the combo in the secret room where you take 2 yellow gems. Take the 2 green gems in combo and get the remaining 6 yellow gems. (28.130 points).

The combo presents some challenges. First one has to lure the shoe into the tunnel so it can be comboed after the last red gem. Then, getting the Lockjaw, Rayman must yell yahoo! and he must be placed near the switch in the floor in order to reach the very specific place where he can combo the Matuvu, with the Lockjaw naturally, and where he can reach the first yellow gem in the secret room in combo. Getting the Matuvu in combo is a close call, and so is reaching the secret room in time, so a lot of experimenting on where to stand is required. The rest is trivial play.

Use the Lockjaw and the hooks to swing to the first room in the wall. Get the 3 crowns. (28.230 points).

Renew the Lockjaw and swing to the second room. Ignore the crowns and instead climb upstairs using the vine. Take the 5 crowns and fall to the level below and combo the 3 crowns you just left behind. (28.590 points).

Renew the Lockjaw one last time and use the hooks and the vine to get to the top floor. Use the hooks to cross the room to enter the last room with 3 crowns. Take these crowns and transport yourself back to Globox. (28.690 points).

Take the last crown. (28.710 points).

The door will open and across the room you will find a Tribelle. Strafe towards it with the Lockjaw (renew the Lockjaw if it runs out) and collect the points. (29.210 points).

This completes the first part.

Part 2. Go to the room with the moving platforms and use them to enter the first room. Collect the 3 crown. (29.260 points).

Use the platforms to enter the second room. Before you touch any crowns, use a charged fist and punch the wall to reveal a secret room. Take the 4 crowns in combo and get the 4 yellow and the green gem in combo. (33.970 points).

Use the platforms to enter the last room. Collect the 5 crowns and transport yourself to the next room. (34.060 points).

Enter the invisible moving platform and collect the 4 crowns in combo. (34.130 points).

In the next room there are four invisible moving platforms, although their reflections can be seen in the mirror. On top of these platforms are a total of 10 crowns. Take these in combo. It may require some practise to do this. (34.370 points).

In the next room another set of invisible moving platform is found together with 3 crowns. Get at least two of them in combo and leave the room through the wall in the far left corner, as seen when you entered the room. (34.410 points).

Transport yourself back to Globox and get the last crown to open the door. (34.420 points).

Behind this door you will find a Matuvu and a Tribelle. Approach the Tribelle carefully and stop at a safe distance. Zoom in on the Matuvu and strafe towards the Tribelle to get it in combo. This completes part 2. (35.170 points.)

Part 3. Turn left to enter the room with moving platforms above the water. Take the lone crown near the switch. (35.180 points).

Use the platforms to jump to the other end in time to get the 4 crowns before the gate closes. (35.250 points).

Now charge your fist, jump and hit the circular glass plate in order to open the secret room. In this room you will find 8 yellow gems, 4 red gems and 1 green gem. Take the yellow gems first, then the red and finally the green gem in combo. (41.850 points).

Exit the secret room and activate the switch on the ground floor. Punch the 3 platforms to go to the upper level. Collect the 4 crowns. (41.920 points).

Enter the next room. On the left there are three moving platforms with 3 crowns and a room with 3 crowns as well. Take the 3 crowns at the platforms and take the 3 crowns in the room as well. (42.010 points).

Jump to the level below and place yourself in front of the vine with 5 yellow gems. You must stand in a position where you are just able to zoom in on the Matuvu to the left of the vine. Get the Matuvu and at once jump the vine to continue the combo with the yellow gems. (42.370 points).

Now jump the bubble trampolines to reach the ledges with the crowns. Activate the switch on the bottom ledge and jump the ledges to get the crowns in combo. (42.610 points).

From the top ledge, jump to the room with 4 crowns and collect them. (42.680 points).

Enter the last room. Punch the platform with curved shots, alternating left and right, and reach the other end in time to collect the crowns before the gate closes. (42.770 points).

Get back to Globox and collect the last crown. (42.780 points).

Enter the open door and collect the Tribelle near the ship. End of this level. (43.030 points).
