Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius is the first game of several based on the show movie of the same name, featuring Jimmy Neutron, a boy with a super-powered mind and a mechanical canine.

Despite sharing a name with its console counterparts, the Windows version was released an entire year earlier and was developed by AWE Games instead of BigSky Interactive. It shares none of the same code or assets with the console versions.

To do: Find (or write) a program to extract 3D shapes from the OMT databases. Cosmic Manager works as a viewer but its black background makes it less than desirable for uploading certain models with black in their texture.
