 : 78 th | | | Earthworm Jim 4 Announced, All Rejoice!
I'm sure we have more than a few EWJ fans here, so the latest news that the original brains behind this awesome series are getting back into development of a fourth installment are guaranteed to lift a few wormers from their keyboards. Quote:
Just one day after the announcement that the first two Earthworm Jim platformers will be released on the Virtual Console -- and following months of rumblings about a series revival -- Interplay announced today that it has teamed up with original creator Douglas TenNapel to develop a new Earthworm Jim game, as well as other media projects.
The game is tentatively titled Earthworm Jim 4, according to today's press release, and TenNapel will be a creative consultant on the title. Additionally, TenNapel will simultaneously assist with the creation of an "animated series and feature film to expand the well-known brand." The previous TenNapel-produced Earthworm Jim animated series, which aired on The Kids WB! for two seasons in 1995 and 1996, remains a cult favorite among franchise aficionados.
