1990s video game star Earthworm Jim could be set for a comeback - if a Kickstarter project is successful.
US developer Toy Ghost has announced Earthworm Jim will appear in the two-player co-op mode of Boogerman 20th Anniversary: The Video Game, which recently launched on Kickstarter.
Earthworm Jim's appearance in a potential new Boogerman game makes sense in a warped video game industry kind of way: Boogerman was developed and published by Interplay - the publisher of Earthworm Jim. Both were 1990s 2D action platform games praised for their animation. Boogerman even made a cameo appearance as Earthworm Jim's rival in Interplay's fighting game ClayFighter. Remember that?
Boogerman 20th Anniversary: The Video Game is described as "a brand new HD Boogerman adventure" made by the original creators Mike Stragey and Chris Tremmel.
