**BACKER STUFF**
WHEN AM I GETTING MY CODE (for backers)
Codes to backers will be out by Noon PST on Friday! They’ll be sent out via email shortly before they go live in the stores and they’ll have instructions on how to redeem them. Make sure you pay attention to the email address that you used for your BackerKit/Kickstarter and if you need any help or are having any issues please reach out to support@humanaturestudios.com.
KS Exclusive Special Edition (for backers)
During the month of March we’ll be debuting the IndieBox contents, and final box art for those of you who got the Kickstarter box set! Since the box won’t be ready for shipping on 3/1, we’re making sure that anyone getting one will also be getting an extra Steam key on March 1st, so you can hop right in. Excited to show you all the goodies soon!
Peabo Special & Lamont Surprise (for backers)
For those of you who got the “Peabo/Lamont surprise” from the Kickstarter, please be aware that this will be a PC-only DLC, and will go out in the next few weeks after launch. Those will be going out by email the same way that the codes will be! We will have more info about this soon, we really wanted to get it in by launch but there were a few small things we need to tweak and test…stay tuned!
**BACKER STUFF END**

A few weeks ago we debuted a new animated trailer for ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove at the Kinda Funny Games Showcase. We hope some of you were able to catch the live stream! We were in great company, with many phenomenal indie games showing off new trailers of their own!
For those who weren't able to tune in, here is a video of our portion. What? WOAH! A wild Freddie Prinze Jr. appears! It's very effective.

We've run into some technical hurdles with EU switch pre-orders but they are on the way. And Xbox One pre-orders are not too far off either!
As always, thank you all for your wonderful support. We're in the homestretch now and we can't wait for you all to get Back in the Groove!
