LMW member LaptiNek, who leads the search for this game, started a petition on for Cartoon Network and Pepworks about the game, and is trying to trend "#FindHyperspace" on Twitter under the name LaptiNek emailed Simon Edis of Ezone (who used the 3D Groove engine) and got a reply that he may be able to find something. Pepworks has a picture of the game on the clients section of their website, and footage of the game was featured in the promo for the event on TV.ģD Groove worker Jules Urbach is trying to find the game (as well as the other 3D Groove games). Cartoon Network's UK site also had the game, but its page can't be found with the Wayback machine. If you try to go to the page on the Wayback machine, you'll only see a Shockwave loader. The only file remaining is a preloader that shows the Cartoon Network logo and a broken file called "game_menu.jpg". He couldn't for reasons unknown, and look what happened! (As of May 2017, this is no longer the policy.) Interestingly enough, Alshoff planned to back up the Total Immersion Event games in 2004 via browser cache. Pepworks could only give copies to their clients. The runner of Toonami Lost Data, Alshoff, contacted Pepworks, the people who made the game. He also says he can't release the games, but maybe he doesn't know this particular game is lost. 3D Groove shut down and Jason DeMarco, Toonami's creator, lost his assets. Nobody backed it up, and the Wayback Machine couldn't save it. The music of the game was apparently "technoey" and "dark, ethereal, almost cyberpunk", kind of like the Metallic Madness Present theme in the US Sonic CD soundtrack.Īfter the event ended, the game moved to the Play page, and stayed that way until July 2004. His voice actor was sure enough a Kiwi, in his late 20s, and was an asshole according to some of the developers one even went so far as to claim he was "worse than Trump" (which is impossible.) In the damaged beta of the training stage, there is a deep voice that sounds like Mojo Jojo from The Powerpuff Girls saying, "Prepare." However, this isn't Swayzak according to a Yuuki Takemoto on YouTube, it was just a generic voice when you had to use a shield. He spoke pretty fast (according to Toonamette on Twitter and Youko Miyamoto, Allison Yamada, and Princess Sally on YouTube) with a slight lisp and hissed the "s" sound. His voice was more human, a lower-pitched version of his voice when he cameoed in SARA's later review of Rez and also reminiscent of the voice of Rez from Gex: Enter the Gecko and was a New Zealand accent.

Swayzak's full body, according to several, had a slim middle, digitigrade legs, and square feet with cablewires as toes (a developer told LaptiNek and Amadeo Dott about the cablewires.) He also has been described as wearing sharp-edged, futuristic power armor and wielding a trident/pitchfork in his boss fight. Stage 5 revealed that Swayzak has infected TOM and this stage is focused on saving him from the inside.
#Toonami scavengers code
Hints were given by Nintendo via AOL, and at the end of every level, you were given a code you could use on Cartoon Orbit to watch Super Mario Sunshine cToons, as that game sponsored this event. You had to find all 3 different colored keys in order to unlock the boss room.
#Toonami scavengers password
According to Toonzone, the controls were WASD to move, and P to bring up the password screen. You accessed new weapons, such as a particle cannon, through passwords shown on TV. The gameplay is similar to Pepworks' other Cartoon Network game: Showdown in the Sky, a PowerPuff Girlsgame, except in this game you fly a fighter jet through tunnels. Swayzak would also show up when you beat each stage, giving negative comments on your performance and also throwing a tantrum. His computer companion SARA provided narration and guidance throughout the game, and you'd occasionally hear Swayzak's voice.

TOM hooks up to the systems in order to fight Swayzak, and you played as TOM in the game, which was a mix between 2D and 3D animation. In the event, the ship Absolution is infected by a computer virus named Swayzak while in hyperspace, and they are now going to crash into Earth. Toonami: Trapped in Hyperspace is a tie-in game to Toonami's total immersion event Trapped in Hyperspace, aired on Cartoon Network from Septemto September 20, 2002. "You'll NEVER defeat us!" - Swayzak at the end of level 2
