Earthworm Jim

Earthworm Jim is an action game where you control a worm in a super suit, evading and defeating enemies to rescue Princess What’s-Her-Name.

Jim is a normal earthworm until a special super suit falls from the sky and lets him operate much like a human, with his worm part acting as a head and the suit acting as arms, body, and legs.

His task is to evade the game’s many antagonists, who want the suit back, and to rescue and protect Princess What’s-Her-Name from them.

The game follows Jim as he eludes and defeats enemies while trying to save the princess. She does not return his affection, and is later crushed by the flying cow launched at the beginning of the game by Jim himself.
