ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove coming 2017 from Adult Swim Games



Sega Genesis fans rejoice, as the classic and interstellar rapmasters of hiphop, and mostly funk are coming back in 2017 for PC and consoles. *Funk levels intensify* Adult Swim of all things will be publishing this kickstarter project for sometime in 2017. Now you can see your favorite funky alien duo, Toejam & Earl..... Back in the groove. No 2D platforming adventure like the genesis sequel, no 3D catastrophe, but 2D Rouge-Like game play which is a first for the series. This new game will have multiple characters and features from each previous entry all in one.

i've known about this for over a year now. and what's wrong with the 3d one i liked it prob the only xbox game i liked.
The xbox game wasn't up to the consumer standards and neither was the developers pleased either. Probably the same story for the second game Panic on funkotron, which i personally liked since it was a platformer.

the 2nd one was the best IMO. trying to find all the fav things that was damn hard back than without guides!
Not only there was so many secrets. I didn't even know there was a warp zone until after i saw the PS3 had a trohpy for using it. :P

Hyper funk zone still is challenging, reminds me of battletoads turbo tunnel. Still hard to beat.

The high five is funny, The music sounded well, and who can forget trixie. Still find the Jam out sessions hard to ever do accuratly.

The game just look graphically interesting as it had so much color and details. I wish it was a 32X or sega CD game back then, it might have just been even more impressive. :)

Looks more than lazy...oh adultswimgames you guys need to step up. You use to make great flash based games of your own ideas and now you are milking a series you probably loved as a kid. Enjoy your free money because your not getting a dime from me

This game is great and was very innovative back then!

How I wish SEGA would continue with their franchises like Phantasy Star, Shining Force, Comix Zone, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, Alienstorm and so many others on current gen consoles, it sure would beat the hell out of the mostly indie shovelware we are presented every week.

*Waits for sega to confirm streets of rage 4* :creep:

Seriously, i appreciate the phantasy star series before it went online. Except for the difficulty and lack of umm.... what the word i am looking for... GUIDANCE, is just a very cherished series. Phantasy star 4 I could maybe beat but the others are just OH MY GOD, SO SLOW, SO CONFUSING.

I heard that ps2 Exclusive sega ages collection has remakes for the games, if they just Put them all on a compilation disc remaster in HD, and translated it and sold it for $40 ($10 for each game on digital services) That be great. :)

The games that really need the spotlight are the ones done by treasure, Dynamite headdy, Gunstar heroes, Alien Soldier, Guardian heroes, Burning Rangers, THE MONSTER WORLD SEIRES, ALEX KIDD, Shinobi, Hang ON, Space harrier.

You know what? When sega was making arcade games they were actually worth playing, then they decided to do consoles and then sink the ship. All they needed was that YU SUZUKI Guy who was doing all those arcade games. :D

Sega arcade collection. :P

Game play is everything. Looks are the bait, and so is legacy. :P
