Earthworth Jim remake heading to DSiWare
Potentially quite groovy
Gameloft's remake of Earthworm Jim is also heading to DSiWare, the developer told American magazine Nintendo Power.
Already available on iPhone, the groovy retro platformer will make its way to Nintendo's digital download service with a few new additions.
The game's graphics and sound will get an overhaul with redrawn sprites, a brighter colour palette, improved audio quality, and some remixes of the most beloved tunes.
The game will also feature an Easy mode, complete with hints and tips on the touchscreen, and a bizarre bonus mode where you mimic Jim's facial expressions in front of the DSi camera. If blowing into gadgets in public wasn't enough embarrassment, now you can gurn your way to success.
