ToeJam and Earl Back in the Groove is a successor of the SNES Game ToeJam and Earl, a game that i honestly never played. The video i recorded was my second attempt, since i missed the button...i think, so it wasn't recording. But i played the Tutorial level before, which gives you hints with little signs, how you should play the game, it's also a little easier, since each since give you also some pocket money.
So the story is, after ToeJam told Earl to hit the red button, which stated "do not press", instead of the blue button. A black hole did ripped away and scrambled the earth to smaller island and this also destroyed your ship. So you scavenge through the island mainly for ship part, to repair the ship and probably to undo the mess. You also can find some mistery gifts, which gives you a buff or boon. but after you used such a box, you get a info, what this type of box is doing. So it's not completely random. You also collect money, to pay the various npc, to do nice things for you. Like searching surrounding bushes and buildings for items, destroying other npc (most of them are harmful), protect your from incoming damage, identify unknown gift packages or heal you. There are more, but i'm too lazy to name all their abilitiers.
By the way, you can not fight. So you have to outrun the harmful npc or hide in sunflower "fields". This is with the exception, that some powers in the gift packages allow you to attack the other npc. But this is for a limited time.
