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. - Игры
OMG that ending audio hahaha, certainly a surprise as someone who only played the Sega version
Most of the data seems to have gone to the speech.
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
@@NunofYerbizness I always thought the narrator for the CD ending tracks was Dave Perry. In one of the easier mode endings, when he's reading the game credits, he seems to take a particular pride in saying his own name.
@@pcachu pride in being an adult animal with a soft, elongated, often tubelike body lacking a backbone
I just realized after all these years the "HEY" sample from the victory music was from Terminator 1.
real attitude problem
The music was so awesome in this version.
I prefer the Mega Drive one.
@@ps4games164 your gay
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.
@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.
I'm glad people still remember this game
All that higher-quality music that we hardly get a chance to hear.
The composer's mother must be very proud.
The audio quality is really good, very similar to PC version
special edition had awesome sound
One of the best game OSTs of all time IMO
It might be alittle confusing, but the end is pretty funny.
jim almost gets the girl, but she fell for something else. He walked away because she had a cow 😂
You da real MVP
Holy sh...
0:39 30:56 these clips also complement each other
what about the motivational speech at the end of the game? I think someone needed to hear this during the game's development, right?
i love that shiny (i guess specifically doug? i'm not sure) gives the player such a nice and awesome message for being the best
Dave Perry gave the message at the end of Prcatice mode
@@jackb7647 oh shit that was dave?
The death animation of the final boss in this conversion is simply the best, and gross
The final Boss is actually "Slug For A Butt"
I do like how we went from "last place in the track meet" to "serving a life sentence in prison". I need a bit of connecting tissue between those, Shiny.
Man. You'd think that the Sega CD version would allow a bit more space to be used for higher quality sound effects. The music and art is still great, though.
I think they blew all the sound quality on the motivational speech.
@@mads_in_zero And the voice acting for Jim
I think alot of that has to do it using the Genesis sound hardware for the sound effects and simply playing audio tracks for the music. Almost every Sega CD game did this. It was the 90s. What can ya say
@@TheBigDynamoJims voice still sounds compressed. It was all used in the U're the Best speech and the music
The dude who does Jim's voice is so darn based
That was Doug TenNaple himself
super cool run!
04:54 - What the heck happened there?
… no, I'm legitimately asking. What the heck?
(Yes, I made a pun. It was too good to pass up.)
Don't worry the pun is funny
Ending is epic
The "Hey!" sample during Snot A Problem is form The Terminator
Groovy game!
U're the best!
Damn, the sound is surprisingly good for a Sega platform.
wow it'll need alot of going over before beeing applied for why on earth did they make the music good but not the sounds?
It's not a Sega genesis/mega drive game, you get that right? It's a Sega CD game. It came on a CD and CD's have hundreds of times the amount of storage space as cartridges did back then.
CD Audio
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...
Pretty sure it's emulator shenanigans, primarily being played from an ISO dump instead of an actual spinning disc. I have the Sega CD edition and I can guarantee you those loads were not this fast.
the music is good the sounds are of bad quallity
Modern games have significantly more loading, it's just that they hide them behind gameplay so you don't notice them.
9:58 I'm just now realizing the background is a StarTrek reference :P.
U'RE THE BEST!
"For pete's sake!"level,This TAS ignore pete,but pete never't turn a fly monster to attack jim.Why that happen?
Check the submission text at the description's link. tl;dr: coordinating certain events with one of the ground tentacles can cause Peter to despawn, and you can just run to the end of the level without babysitting him.
@@pcachu Thank you.
@@pcachu THE WHAAAAT??!!?!?!
You seen Bee Stinging & Big Bruty Biting Effects?
Dithering for days. Looks good for a sega cd title
Shiney says I'm the best.
Please do "Power Pigg of the dark age" next
Kick this games ass, like it kicked mine when i was young
Technically, the best version to speedrun this game is the one in Master System, only has 4 levels
12:42 - ¡Despeinado Con Problema! (Ronda 1)
12:55 - ¡Despeinado Con Problema! (Ronda 2)

Yo this versions cool.
I like this game for sega cd better than genesis
10:54-11:15 How sway!
g r o o v y
GROOVY!!!
Groovy.
22:52 Can you ride?
Nope.
29:12 Mucho audio
10:32 he manegd to escaped
you are cool men
If you are serving a life sentence you aren't probably the best
Don't you hear Shiny??? You're the BEST!!
My favourite level is the one with the weird stuff in it.
so all of them
60 FPS 👌
I turned it on and you can problay guessed what happend
MY COMPUTER EXPLODED
4:57 the sprite broke
Am I the only person who prefers Andy Asteroids over Puppy Love?
Wow is it normally so obnoxious or is that because of the tas
It's like an assault on the ears.
Não acredito que o som das vozes ficou chiado como a versão para o Mega Drive!
não dava pra mixar com o cd audio, não só ia parar a música toda hora, como tbm ia pegar espaço demais de disco e ram
@@avegee24tvEntão que refizessem o jogo do zero.
Deve ter sido uma decepção para os donos de Sega CD comprarem um jogo esperando um áudio impecável.
@@ivandossantos9073 a limitação de hardware também vem à tona
@@avegee24tv penso que foi por não quererem investir mesmo.
0:20 - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Very hard
GOTY 😎✌️✨
Such a great game. Nice TAS. My first time to hear the ending. For those that don't know, the guy that did the voice of Jim is a fairly crazy Christian right-winger
It sucks that such an awful person was involved in creating Earthworm Jim and The Neverhood. :(
Doug TenNapel created Jim as a take back on a teacher who taught him Darwin's species evolution theory. Yes, the man is that not-all-my-marbles-are-right type.

You know it is a good ending when you kill your mother-in-law right before getting your girl back.
You know it's the best ending when you avoid marrying the girl altogether.
(It's a joke, for christ's sake, don't take it seriously)
wtf
Ruin
first
Never gets old
While the voice acting is decent for sega CD, it seems so unnecessary and annoying for most parts.
sounds and acting is absolutely annoying. they really did a bad job on this
