Earthworm Jim 2

Screenshots1 / 3

A cartoon earthworm character with large googly eyes and reddish-brown skin wears a yellow gun holster and blue belt, positioned left-center against a gray background. Below the character, the text "Press Start" appears in colorful pixelated letters with a gradient effect, followed by "Options" in smaller text. The character's exaggerated facial features and bright color palette are typical of early-to-mid 1990s SNES sprite graphics.

Earthworm Jim 2, developed by Shiny Entertainment and released in 1995, is a single-player action platformer for the SNES. Players control Jim, a worm in a mechanized suit, through colorful, surreal levels filled with absurdist humor and inventive obstacles. The gameplay alternates between traditional side-scrolling platforming segments and more experimental sequences, including jetpack-based flying sections and mine-cart rides. Jim's primary weapon is his whip-like head, but he acquires various power-ups throughout his journey. Each stage culminates in a boss encounter, requiring pattern recognition and quick reflexes to defeat. The controls are responsive, with jumping, attacking, and special moves mapped intuitively. The level design progressively introduces new mechanics and environmental hazards, building from simpler introductory stages to increasingly complex challenges.
