Item Description

Funkotron was supposed to be the safe place. After escaping Earth at the end of their first adventure, ToeJam and Earl finally make it home, only to discover that a crowd of Earthlings stowed away on their ship and is now running loose across the planet. The fix is gloriously silly: track down every human, from the obvious to the cleverly hidden, and trap them in jars so they can be shipped back where they came from.

Johnson Voorsanger Productions turned the series into a side-scrolling platformer this time, and the world is packed with personality. A radar points you toward Earthlings, presents hand out super jars, radar scans and teleporting moves, and coins feed parking meters that trigger events in the environment or open up mini-games, the Jam Outs and the Fungus Olympics. Gateways lead to the Hyper Funk Zone, where you dodge obstacles to earn more presents, and ten hidden items tied to Lamont the Funkapotamus stand between you and the best ending.

Two players can team up as ToeJam and Earl at the same time, and co-op is where the game shines brightest. John Baker's soundtrack is the other star, a laid-back jazz-funk groove the Chicago Tribune compared to Herbie Hancock, with the original theme remixed into something more layered. The hand-drawn art is just as loose and loopy, full of oddball locals and Earthlings who look hilariously out of place on an alien world.

Fans of the first game's random, roguelike treasure hunt were split on the change in direction, and Greg Johnson and Mark Voorsanger have since said they regret drifting from their original sequel idea. Taken on its own terms, though, Panic on Funkotron is a gorgeous, funny co-op platformer and one of the most distinctive-looking games on the Genesis, the perfect companion to the original for anyone collecting Sega's funkiest duo.
