Earlier this month series creator Greg Johnson engaged in a Reddit Ask Me Anything to celebrate the beginning of the Kickstarter campaign for his new game, Dancing With Ghosts. Inevitably, the conversation turned to ToeJam & Earl, with one participant asking for more details about a potential new game.Subtle hints, of course, weren’t enough to sate the hunger of fans of this rapping, hotdog-eating, chain-wearing pair, but Johnson was happy to oblige (to a certain extent). He noted:"I can say that the new game is in the planning stage. We intend to make it happen."Of course, optimism can be difficult to come by in the gaming industry at times, but ...
In a Reddit AMA, ToeJam & Earl co-creator Greg Johnson shared a progress update on the movie adaptation that was announced a few years back. It seems things have stalled a bit in terms of movement, but the good news is that the film isn’t dead.“I’m not 100% sure [if it will be live action or animated] as it’s out of my control but I expect it will probably be animated. I’ve read the script and really it could be either all animated, or it could be a mix like Sonic, as it’s primarily on Earth. I’m as curious as you are as to what they will do.

It’s a nostalgic look at how Sega used graphic design as a weapon in the console wars, shifting from a toy company aesthetic to a lifestyle brand that defined a generation.
A memorable voice-over heard in ToeJam & Earl III: Mission to Earth belongs to Genevieve Goings. She began her singing career by voicing most of the game’s female characters, including the one who narrates the story of ToeJam & Earl in gospel style. Sherrie Jackson, for her part, portrayed Latisha. Nothing seemed to predestine Genevieve for a musical career after this successful first attempt as a vocal performer, as she previously worked in the customer service department of an insurance company. This is how she became the star of the Disney show Choo Choo Soul!To try a prototype of ToeJam & Earl III for Dreamcast and read about the game’s development history from ToeJam & Earl Productions, please click the link below!
