Earthworm Jim is a run and gun platform video game starring an earthworm named Jim in a robotic suit who battles evil. Created by Doug TenNapel and designed by David Perry, the game was developed by Shiny Entertainment. Upon its release it was praised for its detailed animation, polished gameplay and surreal humor. The Sega Mega Drive/ Genesis version was released through Wii's Virtual Console service in Europe on October 3, 2008, and in North America on October 27, 2008.
The gameplay of Earthworm Jim could be considered bizarre. Launching cows, using Jim's head as a whip, and other bizarre twists add to the insanity. The player controls Jim at all times of the game. In the level sections, Jim can run, use his gun, swing on hooks, and get powerups for the blaster. The in-between levels called Andy Asteroids place Jim in a semi-3D race against the evil Psycrow. If Psycrow wins, then Jim must fight him in one-on-one combat in order to progress. Throughout the game are many added features, such as mini-bosses whose weaknesses Jim needs to find through trial and error.
