In the Japanese release of the Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 versions of the game, several characters received minor design changes. Rayman was recolored from purple to blue. This is because in Japan, purple is commonly used on villains. It is likely the change was to assert Rayman as the game's hero. Sssssam the Watersnake went from purple to green, Jano's hat became red, and Ly the Fairy's design changed completely: her eyes were rounder, her pupils were bigger and a lighter shade of green in color, she was given thin eyebrows the same color as her hair, instead of green lips, they were now pink, and her clothes also became purple and white.
