ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron
In my professional opinion, now is the time to panic!
Gameplay
Floaty movement. Platforming is a chore.
Hard to tell what will damage you vs benign sprites.
Gotta touch everything - shake every tree and inspect every platform.
One-trick pony. Simple objective - throw a projectile (bottle) at Earthlings. Oh and you can jump. That's it.
Level Design
The gameplay is so sparse that the levels are the only interesting aspect of the game.
Light platforming which is good because of the poor controls.
Every level has the same structure - collect all Earthlings then reach the end of the level. Gets boring fast.
Theme
Silly, but over-the-top. You're on a big fetch quest.
Art Style
Wonderful use of color.
Impressive background parallax scrolling effects.
Some fun character models but many are over-the-top.
Good animation.
Busy artwork with tons of foreground elements obscuring your view.
Interesting, but mostly obnoxious.
Audio
Some ok tunes.
