The developers shared some information regarding the Teensie Highways in a 2003 interview with [[RaymanZone]]. The platforms [[Rayman]] skates across are referred to as ''staves''. It appears that the Teensie Highways are meant to have a very strong connection with music; like [[Band Land]] in [[Rayman 1|the original game]], the very platforms Rayman uses here are made of music. The inspiration for the third and final Teensie Highway is not revealed; however, it is notable for including a screenshot from the original ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'' as one of the fleeting background images.

Another Easter Egg can be found near the beginning of the first Teensie Highway. When you see the huge letters saying "LOVE", look up and to the left. The ~~starship~~ Enterprise (from Star Trek) is flying behind the letters. It's not easy to get a good look at it; jumping off the staves will give ~~you~~ the best view. The Enterprise was probably placed here because the Teensie Highway is a wormhole, and wormholes are encountered frequently by the Enterprise - this location, out of all the places Rayman visits in the game, makes the most sense for the ship to be in~~. However, the appearance of the Enterprise here is probably not canon, but just an Easter Egg. It doesn't affect the gameplay in any way~~.
