{{DISPLAYTITLE:Timeline of ''Toontown Rewritten''}}
The '''timeline''' of ''[[Toontown Rewritten]]'' is a series of events that make up the overall story of the game, which began with a story arc revolving around [[the 26th]]. Since the game's [[Alpha]] launch, the story had been unveiled through many [[Alternate Reality Game|ARG]] puzzles, and certain in-game events and updates. Majority of events occurred in ''[[Toontown Online]]'' canonically and are reoccurring, albeit differently for some events, in ''Toontown Rewritten''. Keep in mind that such events are separated by in-universe years rather than real world years.

Latest revision as of 08:25, 12 October 2023

The timeline of Toontown Rewritten is a series of events that make up the overall storyline of the game, which began with a story arc revolving around the 26th. Since the beginning of Toontown Rewritten's development, many important elements of the storyline are unveiled with ARGs, in-game events, in-game updates, or otherwise. Only events that clearly indicate storyline progression are listed by in-universe years rather than real world years.

Timeline

1998

  • October 26, 1998[1] - Gyro Gearloose uses "The Rewritten Device" of which he invented to rewrite himself into Doctor Surlee, and travels from the Toontown Online timeline to this exact date by activating the time reversal with his unstable pocketwatch in order to start the Toontown Rewritten timeline (also known as "The Rewritten Experiment"). Toontown soon opens its gates for the first time, allowing a small number of Toons to enter.[notes 1]
  • November 28, 1998[notes 2] - In his personal journal, Doctor Surlee documents the first 37 days since starting the Toontown Rewritten timeline, and mentions how he spoke with the Toon Council about ideas for neighborhoods and attempted to convince them to allow some form of teleport access for said neighborhoods. Eventually, Surlee creates Trolley-bots that would be present in various Trolley minigames so that Toons could be prepared for Doomsday.[notes 3]

2000

  • April 26, 2000[notes 4] - Doctor Surlee writes an unpublished lab report explaining that things had been running smoothly for Loony Labs. Much to his dismay, Surlee walks to his desk and finds a resignation paper from Doctor Fissionton with a cat's print. However, Surlee only recalls Fissionton being a dog.

2002

  • October 31, 2002[2] - Flippy allows Black Cats to arrive in Toontown for the first time in celebration of Halloween, which is also his first campaign for the Toon Council Presidential Elections.
  • November 9, 2002[3] - Sir Max proposes an idea for a Trolley minigame called "Robot Thief" that is rejected by the Toon Council due to high budget costs. Before Sir Max could leave the meeting, Doctor Surlee walks in and convinces the Toon Council that Robot Thief is worth pursuing, and instructs Loony Labs to manufacture necessary components for the minigame.
  • November 15, 2002[4] - Professor Prepostera introduces his research on The Grey.
  • November 26, 2002[5] - Doctor Dimm visits Doctor Surlee's lab to look for a sprocket that he needed for Professor Prepostera. Dimm accidentally activates a scanner that scans, compresses, and sends Surlee's Silly Meter blueprint.

  • February 15, 2003[8] - Alec Tinn formally introduces himself and announces the Toon Council Presidential Elections with candidates Flippy and Slappy as chosen by Mayor Mickey to run the newly formed Toon Council while he is off to work on his movies.

  3. Doomsday also occurred in the Toontown Online timeline.
  4. Doctor Surlee's lab report titled "00-04-26 - Lab Report.txt" via LoonyLabs.net
  5. The Portability Design blueprint also came with a back side.
  6. The Manufacturing Machine is a device that produces anything made out of metal. As depicted in Toontown Online's old installer video, Gyro Gearloose likely intended to use the device to create the Cogs at some point.
  7. Scrooge McDuck disappeared when he visited Gyro Gearloose's lab and activated a robot that became evil, which is depicted in Toontown Online's old installer video and is considered canon in Toontown Rewritten's storyline.
  8. The identities of "The Two" were not yet known to be Doctor Fissionton as a dog and a cat until years later.
  9. At the time of when the memo was revealed, Sellbot Field Offices were not yet planned by the Toontown Rewritten Team to be developed as part of the Sellbot Task Force expansion that introduces additional endgame content, though the memo would still have relevancy. Along with Mover & Shakers, Cold Callers would receive their own offices.
  10. The Toontown Rewritten Team had plans to create an entirely brand new Toon Hall interior but ultimately scrapped the idea in favor of focusing on creating content players would want. A piece of concept art for the interior was shown in another blog post.
    File:Tweaks forthefuture.png
  11. Toontown Rewritten entered Beta at this time.
  12. Toontown Rewritten entered Semi-Open Beta, and introduced the PlayLine and PlayTime systems at this time.
  13. The Anti-Cog Control Hat is an accessory that is unavailable in Toontown Rewritten. The Propeller Packs are what were going to be used for Toontown Online's unreleased Lawbot Field Offices, with models and textures still existing in the phase files. The "weird canvas with the giant mechanical glove" in Doctor Surlee's office is referring to The Rewritten Device.
  14. An in-game ARG occurred where Toons had to speak to Mary and other specified shopkeepers including Melville, an HQ Officer, Dr. Fret, Gus Gooseburger, Drowsy Dave, and Professor Flake.

  18. The Rewritten Device is what allowed Gyro Gearloose to "rewrite" himself into Doctor Surlee. Toons eventually received a small benefit from the invention with an item called Toon Rewrite that would become available in Clarabelle's Cattlelog at the cost of 10,000 jellybeans per 6 months.

  24. At the bottom of Doctor Surlee's blog post is an image given to Doctor Surlee by Doctor Fissionton.
