No, one of the main guys behind the game was also responsible for Toe Jam and Earl.
The game is about a robot who is abandoned by his family, and is then told by the company that made him that he is going to be "discontinued" unless he can gain humanity.
The purpose (the way I understand it) is that you visit different planets in order to help various characters with their problems in order to become more human (think Data from Star Trek, or Pinocchio).
You also get your own planet that you can customize, and it comes with your own in game shrink who will give your personality quizzes. You can also fly through space on a giant piece of shit (literally).
And for the youngsters:

Fuck it, I'm lazy. I'm gonna make a discussion thread for it instead.
