(okay please dont speculate as to the intentions of the developers unless you can back it up somehow. if theres unused content, say so, or if you've spoken to the developers, even better - dont say "it was planned to be like this" without any proof)

Revision as of 01:59, 25 October 2013

Earthworm Jim 2 is an unlicensed port of the game of the same name, made for the Famicom by Shin-Shin Electronics and published by KaSheng in 1996.

Overview

This version is considerably more faithful to the SNES version, than it is of the Mega Drive version. Graphics and music are true to the original game. It has several based levels off of: Anything But Tangerines, Granny Chair, Puppy Love, Udderly Abducted, and a possible "See Jim Run, Run Jim Run". although Shin-Shin's version has far more responsive controls and recognizable Soundtrack. The ending is an 8-bit screenshot of the "Well done!" cows seen after each level of the original game.
