Jim wasn't always a studly super-worm. He was once just a spineless, dirt-eater with no real mission in his life...

I got it on sale for cheap and glad I did. Probably the worst port I've seen on Steam. doesn't even support controller. barely playable as a game, takes all the charm and fun on EWJ
For the "System Requirements", they should've added "A user with a sense of masochistic nostalgia." I'd recommend the console version of this game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZf16X4NGyc
It's Earthworm Jim. I bought this PURELY to own Earthworm Jim on Steam. It plays terribly on a keyboard, it plays wonderfully using a game controller. Take from this review what you will. It's Earthworm Jim. We know why you're here, you're curious what the review says. You're thinking i'll talk about Audio Quality. You think i'll say this has the hidden level the PC CD-Rom had and you know what? IT DOESN'T. It's Earthworm Jim. Buy it and play it, we all know you're going to, you're just looking for justification. You don't need justification you're a human being with complete autonomy. Be Reckless. Buy it. Play Earthworm Jim on Steam. I know there's no Achievements. I know there's no cards. Who cares? Buy the Full Bundle like I did. You deserve it. You need it. You barely remember Earthworm Jim 3D for the N64 don't you? You should buy the bundle and play it.

A classic game

I was going to do a huge review of EWJ and the series as a whole, but steam crashed and I have to start over. This is a life lesson for everyone; if you think something you are writing is important, write it somewhere where it can be saved. Last thing you want is for progress to be lost. Overall, earthworm jim 1 & 2 are extremely overrated average games; the only thing holding it together is nostalgia and the art direction. Even the music falls apart when you realize there are only 3-4 good songs while the rest of lazily grabbed from public domain. Controlling Jim is stiff, slow, and heavy; you have this bulk of a man (worm) trying to platform like you're trying to throw a brick onto something. You see, I have this understanding from playing modern games; many games now- and some back then- have all shown better ways to do 2D platforming. We are completely spoiled by characters that feel good to move around in their space. EWJ is a fat ugly brick that just barely makes it onto whatever unimposing ledge is there. Game sucks, levels are the same thing with different backgrounds, and there is constant filler levels in between. Use your head, chicken fall, snot a problem are examples of what should have been the in between, rather than the stupid astroid race 5 times. The game also lacks a lot of feedback; attacking enemies, jumping around, knowing if you are doing damage or not. You kind of just exist, and then either get your ass kicked or land on spikes. ♥♥♥♥ it; not worth your time. As someone who played this games as a child- and went back to play years earlier- I can say with confidence that the only thing keeping this games interesting is nostalgia and art direction. It's both goofy and serious; with whacky character animations, situations, and dialogue in a dark, grim environment. overall 4/10 tbh do not buy this game. key word here is buy; you can still play it, just don't buy it
This game was too confusing, and i still feel confused playing it. But if you like it then good for you!
Thanks to the creators of this best, сharismatic, immortal game.
