About

Side-scrolling platformer starring an earthworm who stumbles into a stolen super-suit during an intergalactic chase. Jim gains sentience and human-like control when the suit lands on him, his worm body serving as the head while the tech handles limbs and movement. You'll run, jump, and use Jim's own body as a whip to fight off the suit's original owners—including the villainous Queen Slug-for-a-Butt and her enforcer Psy-Crow—while trying to rescue Princess What's-Her-Name. Levels mix traditional platforming with oddball scenarios and boss fights. The game's tone leans absurdist, complete with flying cows and characters with ridiculous names. Expect precise jumping, combat that relies on timing your worm-whip attacks, and a story that doesn't take itself seriously. It's built for players who want challenge with a side of cartoon weirdness.
