Trivia

 * Before Nitrogen Studios was announced to be the animation service of Freedom Planet, Sabrina DiDuro pitched the film to numerous animation companies such as Mercury Filmworks, Arc Productions, Bardel Entertainment, Guru Studio, DHX Media, and Yowza! Animation, who all passed down on it. Eventually, co-founder of Nitrogen Greg Tiernan discovered Freedom Planet, and being aware of the film project, he contacted DiDuro to ask permission to animate the film, to which she accepted.
 * Freedom Planet uses both anime-style and computer-generated types of animation to match the setting of the original game. Co-director Greg Tiernan said that this was done because the game is influenced by a lot of Asian culture, so to match the tone, he asked the animators of Nitrogen to give a smiliar anime-esque animation style, all while still rendering the film in CGI.
 * The score of the film was performed by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, which were composed by Daniel Ingram and William Anderson, and conducted by Richard Balcombe.
