Well, the first thing to note is that this is destined to get funded on name alone. .
I had no idea Sega didn't own TJ&E. Probably for the best, though. Definitely backing this as soon as I get paid.
I think you're dramatically overestimating the love for toe jam and earl
They made 1 good game (the first one) and then 2 pretty bad games after that
It's like trying to reignite the boogerman franchise(which was a failed attempt as well)

I honestly thought TJ&E were Sega properties. Huh.
I was talking about that one.
PC wtfffff
Cult series, for some reason, tend to have super loyal fans who are willing to spend money to get what they want. Zero doubt in my mind that this will get backed and I say this as someone who hasn't even played the Toejam & Earl Games.
Just looked at the reward tiers. Wow, they're going to get destroyed with physical reward fulfillment at low tiers.
Well, the first thing to note is that this is destined to get funded on name alone. As soon as the press shines light on this those pledges are going to rocket. The second thing that comes to mind is that are they showing this too early? Those screenshots look very experimental prototype stage as opposed to finished form. I was a massive fan of TJE2 on the Megadrive (which TBH is where most of the fans of the series come from) and not so much TJE1.
I would have preferred a successor to that in the same style. Honestly I feel like they're drawing inspiration from the wrong game here. He is the original creator so he would know best but TJE is predominantly famous for the second game and not really the first. The second game is the game people remember and love. That said I wish them all the best. Hope that the game and the art improves considerably over the course of development. Just feel like the game should look better than this.
Showed the game too early IMO. TJE2 looks miles better than this and that game was eons ago and on ancient hardware.
