Rare's old website mascot, Mr. Pants, makes appearances in the game. His most notable cameo is a cheat called "Pants as Ants" that can be unlocked by collecting 300 Ant heads, which if toggled replaces the standard blue-ants with Mr. Pants. Mr. Pants is also drawn on one of the walls in a hallway in the Tawfret Castle level.

This one's pretty neat:

There were plans to release a Game Boy Color version of Jet Force Gemini in 2000, but the game was cancelled before it could even be announced, likely because the previous Game Boy Color versions released alongside with their Nintendo 64 counterparts (Perfect Dark and Conker’s Pocket Tales) were received with low interest. In 2006, a prototype of the game was found and was said to be "nearly complete."
In an October 2012 interview, former Rare designer and producer Martin Wakeley said, "Jet Force Gemini on the Gameboy was the only occasion I can remember Rare outsourcing anything. It was being done by Bits Studios and was nearly done last time I saw it, I’m not sure what happened to it."
