those two "modern" rayman games managed to make something that was enjoyable from 1-4 players - I would say that mario wonder leans pretty heavy on those for inspiration too (trying to make every level unique and surprising). but nintendo always add a tonne of awkwardness into their games for seemingly no reason
I used to think it was because they didn't look at competition so didn't know "the right well understood way", but then a lot of their games in the last decade have taken a lot of inspiration from others so that doesn't fly so well anymore
Yeah. Rayman Legends is a delight, and really the high watermark for platforming in multiplayer.
I can't speak strongly to single player, beacuse I've enjoyed it in single player, but it honestly pretty much 100% picks up a second, or third and fourth player every time I play it.
