Earthworm Jim 2 

 

In some ways Earthworm Jim 2 expanded the video game industry in ways that opened a great many eyes. The animation, quirky humor, and depth of characters showed the rest of the industry what could be done in a video game. At the same time the violence, offensive content, and gross content pushed the industry in a dark direction. I wish more game developers came up with interesting characters, worlds, and concepts in modern day video games. At the same time I wish more game developers would progress past the violence and offensive content crutches in their video games.

What ultimately hurts Earthworm Jim 2 is the extreme difficulty and frustrating controls. You can watch the game play video on our website in the Videos section to see what I am talking about. The controls are constantly a struggle. So is using the violence to get rid of the massive amount of enemies that get in your way. The art in Earthworm Jim 2 is very detailed.

For its time Earthworm Jim 2 had amazing animations that were compared to cartoons. The music is okay, although some of those special effect sounds are annoying. Dying is the only reason to replay Earthworm Jim 2.
