MMDE Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) This entire game reminds me about Earthworm Jim. Similarities: Genre, run n gun. Crazy guns. Lots of mini-games, even many similar mini-games. Over-the-top humor. Cartoon gore stylish. Animal characters. "Finisher move", though not far as widely used in Earthworm Jim. Probably lots more...

bobsnotmyuncle Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 That was the exact game I compared it to. My girlfriend also mentioned that when she saw the game. Much easier then EWJ is though To this day, Major Mucus still gives me a headache... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game is also more openworld-ish and got missions. I think I prefer Earthworm Jim though. Loved playing the second game on PS1. At least I beat it there, but yeah, much harder. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EWJ usually had a path that was safer, but slower and one that was trickier to find and harder to get through, but muuuch faster. This game, you will have to backtrack anyways as you have to kill all the monsters anyways What they both had in common as well though, was how each level was very different from the rest. It never felt like the same thing over and over again (even though it really was ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jikashi Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 For the gameplay and layout, this game reminds me a lot of Cave Story. But I definitely see the EWJ style humour. Bits of Conker's Bad Fur Day too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrieverLioness Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 My initial comparison to this game was Metroid, because of the platforming and upgrades which mean you can backtrack and do extra bits in old areas. Though Metroid does it better lol. Now that it has been mentioned it is similar to Earthworm Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
