The original creators of Earthworm Jim are reuniting for a new game – but you’ll need Amico, the new Intellivision console due October 2020, to play it.
Amico is set to be a console for exclusive retro-themed games – remakes and new titles such as this new Earthworm Jim. The console itself will cost between $150 and $180 (about 135) with downloadable games priced between $3 and 8 (about 6).
Tommy Tallarico, who is conveniently both Intellivision boss as well as Earthworm Jim 1 and 2’s composer, will the project. Nine other team members are also on board.
“We have been talking about this moment for many years, it’s a dream come true to finally get the entire team back together,” Tallarico said. “We’re looking forward to sharing a small part of our reunion and initial design meeting with fans from around the world.”
The team will hold a 20-minute livestream this Saturday, 4th May at 8pm UK time to discuss the project and give away signed posters.
