Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy is the last original Earthworm Jim game to be released and the first to have garnered a near-universally poor reception - an even worse blowback than that of Earthworm Jim 3D.
The gameplay is simplified compared to previous Earthworm Jim titles and involves little more than hunting down coins to progress to the next level where you'll be doing much of the same.
Unused Partial Level Data
There exists unused data for the part of a level that describes which tileset is used by each tile. The data appears to be from an early version of the Graveyard level based how similar their layouts are.
There are several differences from the used tileset map:
- The church in the background was moved a short distance.
- Stars and other decorations were added.
- The central-left area was lowered and got a few more terraces.
- The cliffs in the lower-right area were made somewhat taller.
Here it is possible to see a visualization of the unused and final Graveyard tileset maps:
Unused | Used |
