Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius is a platformer based on the movie and BigSky Interactive's first game. Strangely enough, this game came out nearly a whole year after the movie's release.

The game has gone under infamy for being clunky and unpolished in comparison to the movie and later games done by different developers.

Gotta blast anyway!

To do: The "data" folder contains two test levels. Document the July 15th, 2002 prototype.
