In-between each stage is a mini-game, where Jim rides in a rocket in a race against his nemesis, the evil Psy-Crow. The levels are cleverly designed with interesting themes, ranging from a junkyard to the deep, dark pits of hell (complete with lawyers). Jim has a recharging minigun, and a "worm-whip" attack that can kill enemies, or swing him from platform to platform. In this game, your goal is to traverse each level, destroying any baddies that lurk within. Suddenly, a super-powered suit drops from the heavens, Jim crawls into it, and voila - he's transformed into Earthworm Jim, an annelid with an attitude, and a very big gun. It's one fine day in the meadow, and Jim is quite well and good doing what he does best - being a worm. Their experiences working on Disney titles like Aladdin gave them the creative boost to create a new side-scroller with an original character: Earthworm Jim.
This, of course, was Shiny Entertainment, a talented bunch of nuts who excelled in terms of art direction and technical know-how.
