A new Earthworm Jim game made by the original team “almost happened”. So says Nick Bruty, the main designer of the first game.
Bruty shared in a Reddit AMA yesterday that the possibility of making a new Earthworm Jim title was explored roughly five years ago. However, a deal with the IP owners couldn’t be agreed upon.
Bruty wrote:
“A new EWJ game with the original team almost happened about five years ago, but a deal with the [intellectual property] owners couldn’t get worked out. I think everyone would be up for it sometime. Feels like unfinished business, but [it’s] hard to align everyone. I wouldn’t do it without the key players.”
Bruty also commented on a few other Earthworm Jim topics that we’ve rounded up below.
