Jonas Kaerlev was concerned about bringing the game to Kickstarter, because he thought people would associate it with Donkey Kong 64, rather than other titles of the genre.
"It did worry us before we launched the Kickstarter. But we thought if we emphasized enough that we were trying to make something less like Donkey Kong 64 and more like Banjo-Kazooie or Mario 64, we thought it would be much more well-received."
Jonas also stated the lack of collect-a-thon platformers was partially because of Rare's Donkey Kong 64 game.
"I don't want to blame it all on Donkey Kong 64, but it's partially at fault. Donkey Kong 64 did a lot of things wrong, in that it was very tedious to collect everything in order to move on. A lot of people don't want that. They want to be able to breeze through the game if they so desire, but there are also people who want to collect everything, and get stronger and better."
