I missed it Monday, but there's a new, less silly pitch video that's got ToeJam's forward-facing walk cycle.

CONSOLE STRETCH GOALS ARE IN THE HOUSE!!!
Once again wed like to say: We Hear You! It has been our plan all along to build this game for all platforms, but as you know we were holding back from announcing these as stretch goals. We've been getting SO many requests from fans for console stretch goals though; many of these fans want the game for themselves on consoles, and many helpful fans have simply been making suggestions to help entice new backers.
Well, we used GDC (the Game Developers Conference) to good advantage, and had a number of conversations with Sony, and Unity, and Humble Bundle and potential porting and distribution partners, and other platform vendors, and we decided to go for it. So now, please help us spread the word. Were trying to remove all barriers and put the pedal to the metal. Lets make this thing happen!!!
Also you may notice that we've snuck in one more intermediate stretch goal at the $550K mark to help pull this thing along. If we can get enough bucks we will have some money to get some exciting guest composers to make some music for our game. This is in addition to our main awesome audio guy, Burke Trieschmann, here is are a few guest composers we might get to contribute:
JOHN BAKER, the original composer for TJ & E, and Panic on Funkotron. Hed love to do some new funky tunes for us (note: he still needs to get clearance from his current employer, thats why it says "provisional").
KAWEHI: You will notice on the ToeJam and Earl Facebook page I have liked only two other pages. Choo Choo Soul (the funky music videos on Disney Jr. starring Genevieve) which is a TJ&E style kids show I created and wrote the songs for, and Kawehi. She is a several-times, KickStarted, indie musician who is insanely talented, and she has agreed to do some music for us if we can meet this goal. Check out a link to one of my favorite Kawehi songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qZsM0m9_0E
TONEZP: You will recognize TonezP (also called Tonez The Prince) from our TJ & E music video. He is Funky Fresh.
OTHERS: There is an awesome group in Brazil called The Game Boys, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFmW-ED2CH4 and an AMAZING professional bassist named Cody Wright who is a major TJ&E fan, and some others who have expressed interest. We want the music in this game to be funky awesomeness.
