Very nicely done! I designed all the TJ&E games and originally came up with this bass line and melody, then worked with the very talented John Baker who turned it into real music for the Sega Genesis. You guys did a great performance of it! Awesomely funky. --Greg Johnson (Humanature Studios)
I loved TJ&E!!! The music was a major part of the enjoyment for me. I do hope that whenever the franchise is resurrected that it includes this sort of wonderfully funky music.
Thanks guys. More funky music is coming your way. I'm working on a new TJ&E game now, and the music is gonna be really fun. These guys are great aren't they. I just posted another video performance of theirs on the Toejam and Earl FB page.
Greg, the anarchy and all the funk mood on your game made it unforgettable. No doubt it belongs on game industry history. Im a screenwriter with some game ideas, hope someday I'll do something unique like that. All the best. Big fan here. GameBoys, vocês tocam pra cacete, tão de parabéns.
Greg Johnson Grats on getting your game funded. I'm a "Lovely Dufus" level funder. To be quite honest I really wanted a TJ & E Figure but I don't have that kinda scratch. I did however spread your Kickstarter around in literally every social media type thing I could. In the recent past though I've been thinking of TJ&E randomly and sometimes subconsciously. I did a number of doodles of them in my note book at college (In those doodles TJ&E looked all desheveled and were drinking and unshaven. Big Earl was like "When we gonna get another game Toejam!?" *Smasshes a fourty against the wall*) and did a paint drawing in class in windows paint of Toe Jam, as seen here. millgiass.deviantart.com/art/ToeJam-paint-334247391 One of my art projects was a giant sized comic page which I thought of on the fly HAD to have been inspired by TJ&E. Thier ship though was a bit more hearty and didn't smash into pieces. millgiass.deviantart.com/art/Space-Lords-Comic-274231778 Clearly these guys aren't funky enough to be from Funkotron. I can't wait to play the new game. I'm prepping myself by playing through the other 3. (yes I own all 3 in physical copy.) I also own a Digital copy of the Genesis ones on PS3, those were excellent ports IMO. I just 100%ed the first game (Beat on Fixed and Random worlds getting all the trophies. Paid Trixie a visit with both TJ & E.) Next I'll play Panic on Funkotron. And after that I'll play TJ&E 3, which I found at a local store for 8 bucks! I've never played it before but I'm looking forward to it. I'd totally test play your new game if I didn't live on the other side of the country. Good luck though.
Greg Johnson A new TJ&E game?! That is the best piece of information I've accidentally stumbled across in forever. I'm like the others here, this game made my childhood. Thank you so much for your contribution to it! I was listening to this for nostalgia, and now you're telling me there's another TJ&E in the works? I'm. so. stoked.
Hello! My mother is a *huge* fan of T&E games (which made it ome of my childhood games) and for her birthday this year or the next, I would like to gather autographs from you and the team that worked onto this project. I'm sure she'll be stunned by this and I wish you were part of this gift :) I will try to add my mail address to my profile in case you would want to cntact me on this topic ! In any case, thanks for your marvelous work which (in my opinion) made the game achieve this special cult status for people who played it ! The game would be repetitive without this awesome groove of yours to keep bobbing heads and shoulders while playing for the 55th time haha
I come back to watch this every so often. You guys are all talented but that guitar solo at the end fuckin RIPSSSSS!!! Great job everyone, still entertaining me in 2016
cara, eu amo vcs por isso!!!!!!!! essa eh a melhor versao q eu ja vi pro jogo mais divertido de todos os tempos!! eu gostaria de fazer um pedido: por favor, façam uma versao pras outras músicas do ToeJam & Earl!! faça um pobre rapaz feliz! hahahaha MTOOOO FODA!! MEUS PARABÉNS PELA PERFORMANCE!! e obrigado por terem disponibilizado isso aqui... é uma grande honra pros gênios q criaram esse jogo!! FANTÁSTICO!
Foda, mandaram muito.... músicas bem escolhidas e executadas com uma puta musicalidade, parabéns de verdade !!! INFÂNCIA MODE ON ... huHUHUuhauhahuaAUHa !!!
I can't believe I was able to listen to this for the full 10 minutes and not get tired of it. Very well done! PS. TJ&E and Panic on Funkatron coming to XBLA/PSN in the first week of November! Yes!
Real criticism: This is funk, that bass player needs more volume. It looks like he has active pickups, and since you want to keep the 'twang' of those high notes, boost the low pass.
