Overview and Gameplay
ToeJam and Earl return to Funkotron where escaped Earthlings are scattered across vibrant side-scrolling stages, turning the planet into a cleanup mission. Each level focuses on tracking down these humans, using special items to stun or lure them, then delivering them to containment points to unlock the exit. Progress is structured through clearly defined stages, replacing the open exploration of the previous entry with objective-driven platform action.
