This museum isn't anywhere close to being complete, however. This took a lot of time and money - not to mention the effort to categorize it all afterwards - but we wanted to make sure that this was all done properly before putting it out on the internet forever. If you’re interested in the archival process, or even have some Toontown history of your own that you'd like to contribute, keep reading onward for details.Īll over the place! Many Toontown Team members have spent years digging up pieces of Toontown Online history to assist us with developing new content for Toontown Rewritten, and we've even had a few former Toontown Online developers send us donations of things they've kept around over the years.įor all of the physical material that we've collected, we pooled together funds to have everything professionally scanned by an archival service. If that's the case, simply go to toontown.online and browse away!

The Toontown Preservation Project is a mini-site dedicated to archiving the history of all things Toontown Online that can't be achieved with Toontown Rewritten alone. Right! That's probably an important thing to tell you. What is the Toontown Preservation project? Without further ado, I present to you The Toontown Preservation Project !
To that end, we've spent a long time figuring out the best way to put together a mini-site to preserve all of the bits of Toontown Online that we can't preserve with Toontown Rewritten alone. The in-game portions of Toontown Online are just one piece of this, though - Toontown stretches far beyond the reaches of our screens, and we wanted to find a way to preserve every single piece of it forever, for free. We never want the memory of Toontown Online to fade away, which is a large part of our goal of running Toontown Rewritten. Thus, I didn't hesitate for a moment to be a part of this special project to give back to the Toontown community in the same way it's given back to me. To say that this game helped shaped who I am as a person would be an understatement. This game introduced me to some of my greatest friends, and helped me through the toughest of times in my life. In case it's not obvious - Toontown Online is very important to me. Today, I’m here talk about what the Toontown Preservation Project is, and how you can help us with our efforts to keep every bit of Toontown alive!
