  • This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/1682M
    TAS originally published on 2010-11-26
    Earthworm Jim is the unlikely story of an earthworm who finds a suit with super powers and goes on a rampage to protect Earth and his puppy Peter(?). The game follows the absurd spirit of the story: for example, the suit can use Jim for a whip, there is a boss who attacks by vomiting fish, you fight lawyers in hell, and in one level, you swing on bungee cords made out of snot.
    This movie improves the first run of this game ( tasvideos.org/397M ), which was done on the Genesis version, by 00:16.95 seconds. However, the actual improvement is much larger since the Special Edition contains additional levels that are also played through in this TAS.

      Douglas TenNapel (the guy who voiced the "U're the Best" dialogue), it almost sounds as if it were Poofesure saying that. Or like, he kinda sounds like Poofesure to me, down to the speech mannerisms.

      This was a huge nostalgia moment for me - I owned the Windows CD version, and since the soundtrack is CD-DA that disc was part of my regular listening rotation. There's also another speech at the end that berates the player for getting through the game on easy mode. =D

      I really don't understand how people can say the Sega versions of this game had better music. It sounds compressed as all hell. The SNES version, though lacking some bass (and even then, only on some tracks), at least has better sound quality. Same songs, just higher quality.
      I don't get it.

    • @XenoGuru
      @XenoGuru 8 месяцев назад +1

      @Nickle_King Just the Sega CD and PC versions. To each their own though. Everyone likes different things.
      Edit: Listen to just the OST on headphones, you can hear all the extra details that the hard copies couldn't do, due to the restrictions of the software back then

      @@XenoGuru Nonono. This isn't a "to each their own" situation. This is like saying "I love Metallica, but only on cassette players." It is just Metallica, but worse quality audio. You might as well be saying "I like the music, but only when I can't hear it well."
      I grew up in this time frame. I know what the old quality and the new quality is. I've heard them both back then. Sega's versions sound like they're being played on Fischer Price toys while the SNES is using Electronica.
      This isn't a "well, people like what they like" thing. This is either nostalgia, or nonsense.

    Damn, was this game built as a tech demo for the Sega CD (it isn't, though this version has more levels), or is the TAS doing some frame perfect trick to get faster loading times? Because those loading times are almost non-existent compared to modern games, or even games on the exact same console. This wouldn't be impressive on its own if the game looked like ass, but this game looks amazing...

    • @pcachu
