* ExecutiveMeddling: Virgin wanted the game to be the equivalent of a blockbuster and poured huge amounts of money into the animation and hiring Hollywood actors forgetting that the game tying it all together might need some as well. Three years and $8 million dollars later (including 18 months just getting the engine to work properly) the game was far from complete but released anyway.

* AllStarCast: This game has a stellar cast, with Creator/ChristopherLloyd and Creator/BenStein in live-action roles, and voiceovers by Creator/TimCurry, Creator/DomDeLuise, Creator/DanCastellaneta, and Creator/DavidOgdenStiers. Also, if you're a 90's cartoon buff, you'll recognize voice actors such as Creator/JimCummings, Creator/JeffBennett, Creator/TressMacNeille, Creator/CoreyBurton, and more. It's a real treat with such recognizable names attached.

** The game, as released, only uses about 1/3 of the completed animation. It was supposed to be 4 parts, all as long and complex as Disc 1 of the released game, but time and budget constraints forced the team to push it out with only 2 parts completed (and with the second part truncated, at that.) This [[ChristmasRushed Christmas Rushing]] is the reason the game ends on a cliffhanger.

* MeaningfulReleaseDate: The game was released on Halloween 1996, which fits its madcap and often dark tone. The game's MascotVillain is Spike, a MonsterClown, and the entire second half of the game takes place in a spooky castle.
