The game is actually designed to play directly from the CD, however we are going to need to copy the contents to our hard drive in order to update one of the games DLL files. This edition of the game for Windows 95 includes extra levels and improved graphics and animation and is considered by some players to be the definitive version. Nevertheless, Earthworm Jim was quite the star back in the 1990s, with videogames and even his own cartoon show. When it comes to cute, anthropomorphic animals for video game characters, the humble earthworm might not be the first creature that comes to mind. I'd say the original Genesis version is the best.Genre: Platform Release Year: 1995 Developer: Shiny Entertainment Publisher: Activision Age Rating: Everyone Playability Status: Fully playable (minor issues only) Tested On: Windows 8 圆4 Availability: Copyright retained - Out of print/unavailable Unfortunately the extra stage isn't very good and kind of kills the pace of the game, and the CD music is good, but doesn't loop seamlessly. There's an argument to be made that the Sega CD version is the best, as it takes the Genesis version, fixes the "one sound effect at a time" issue, and adds more content in terms of graphics, bonus stage segments, CD music, and an entire extra stage. In exchange it gets a smoother color palette and the ability to play more than one sound at a same time without it getting cut off. On top of the resolution issue, the SNES version is also missing a bunch of stuff, including sounds, graphical effects, and an entire stage.
This meant that if a game was developed for the Genesis first and then ported to the SNES, it almost always ended up cropped and stretched unless they redrew the game's graphics from scratch (which they rarely did). The Genesis generally ran at a resolution of 320x224 with square pixels, and the SNES ran at 256x224 with rectangular pixels. Which is one of several reasons the Genesis version is superior.
