ToonFest: Birthday Bash | Day Two Summary!
Posted by The Toontown Team on May 26, 2023 at 9:00 PM
Happy Friday, everyone, and welcome back! Another day at ToonFest: Birthday Bash has come to a close, so y’all know what time it is! We’re back at it with our daily update! We’re sure you’re all eager to jump into it, so here’s our second day recap of ToonFest: Birthday Bash at MomoCon 2023!
What’s Next for toontown
In our most anticipated panel yet, a boat load of information regarding new content was released into the world! Be aware, we’re about to dive into some spoilers!!!
In case you missed it, the Toon Resistance intercepted the memo from the Chairman, revealing their restructuring, otherwise known as “Under New Management” plans for facilities. Two brand-new Cog minibosses were revealed — The Club President and the Office Clerk — who will eventually be accompanied by two other minibosses and a facility overhaul that will change the suit grind forever!
The textures in Toontown are bursting with liveliness with the announcement of Toontown Remastered, a retexturing of the game you know and love while maintaining that Toony feel.
Our favorite Toon Council president, Flippy, finally arrived — he was running late due to a Toon Council meeting. He didn’t come empty handed, however! Knowing how beloved he is in the community, Flippy gave everyone he saw a Flippy Plushie! Keep an eye out at the convention center over the next few days, maybe Flippy will make another appearance…
Last, and certainly not least, the clouds covering the final part of the Shticker Book map disappeared, revealing what’s been hiding below the cloud! Book your flights, Toons! The Island of Clear Coasts will be the hottest vacation spot for Toons all over the Tooniverse!

Some Assembly Required: Creating the Cogs
After the “What’s Next for Toontown” panel, we jumped right into the next. In this one, the panelists took us on a trip through the early concept art and development of the “Under New Management” project. With a summary of how these battles will currently function, Toons were able to get a glimpse into these facilities!
After this panel concluded, attendees were able to participate in a playtest of the new Office Clerk and the Club President fights, as well as take a stroll down Snooze Square, a new street that will connect Donald’s Dreamland with Clear Coasts. It was so fun watching people experience these battles for the first time! Some Toons were brave enough to go into the unknown alone (shoutout to Molly who was the first Toon to solo the Office Clerk)!
Toontown Trolley Tournament
The competition was ON for our Trolley Tournament! Several randomized groups rode the trolley together, competing neck and neck to be crowned this year’s Trolley Champion! The fight was tougher than a 4-star Boiler, but you Toons put on a great fight! Congratulations to Lime, Super Snorkelton, Smirky Bumperpop, and Zeku.

Sorry! You must log in before you can post a comment.
I missed the panel, but I arrived in time to get my hands on a Flippy plush. I wonder if that Flunky from earlier is the same one as in those old blog posts. I hope he's alright.
It was a blast being able to experience these new TTR bosses first-hand! I can’t wait for all the other features to release to the live game!
This is so exciting!!!
I love the Flippy and Flunky costumes! They're cool and funny :D
Holy cow, how EXCITING! Was able to stream "What’s Next for Toontown" yesterday and all I can say is... WOAH! Can hardly wait for everything that's coming. :) I'll definitely be watching the Q & A panel today! Hope everyone is having a Tooneriffic time in Atlanta so far, live it up for me! :D
I'm SUPER DUPER excited for all of these toontastic updates! Thank you guys for continuing to make this great game even greater! I hope all the lucky toons who are attending Toonfest have a wonderful, toontastic time!
You guys are just... I don't even know what word to use. I mean, all of these fantastic updates, these new minibosses, Toontown Remastered, a new BEACH PLAYGROUND?! (And finally a 3rd street for Donald's Dreamland!) These ideas and updates are all just absolutely AMAZING! You guys are, hands down, the most talented and awesome game team in the world, and I raise my seltzer glass to you. Happy 20th birthday, Toontown! (And 10th for Rewritten!) Have a great time at Toonfest, everybody! - Bananasnooker ;)
I think the other minibosses will be the Mint Supervisor and the Factory Foreman.
EXCITED!!!!
The second day's panels were so exciting! I'm really looking forward to Under New Management, Clear Coasts and Toontown Remastered! What's been shown of them (visuals, music, concepts) is incredibly fun and I can't wait to see more!
WOW!!! I am beyond astounded by what TTR's plans have in store for all of us! The texture refining really brings our memories back to what's originally planned before, Toontown Retextured, which we've not heard word of, that is, until now! The excitement of redone textures really brought joy to Toons all over! The re-orchestrated music, which I heard and understood is not yet final, is really amazing to hear, matching, or comparably parallel to others doing such orchestrations outside of Toontown! Of course, the Cogs also have been getting more ruthless in bringing their brand of boredom to Toontown, and those Facility Reworks, choices in difficulty, and new Supervisor minibossess are fractions of how their plans REALLY mean business! No joke! And, then, Clear Coasts, the very amazing new Playground is what Toons are waiting for countless years, a clear continuation of where Dreamland ended, and gives us a great place to truly get away from Cogs! I can imagine what's coming for us may guarantee more Laff Boosts to earn, and amazing rewards we've had through the past, including a new bigger Gag Backpack to hold more Gags past 80! We can only hope and dream. All those next expansion batches are really scratching the surface of our Toons' numerous new adventures to come! Many Toons have been patient, others impatient, but this will definitely be loads worth waiting for! Not to mention celebrating TTO's 20th anniversary and TTR's 10th Anniversary! Huge thanks to everyone that made all this possible! May you continue beyond 10 to 20 for Toontown!
Congrats to Molly, the MVP of Toonfest!
OH MY GOD! This may be one of the biggest updates i've seen on toontown so far! other than maybe field offices
