Mega Drive version
GEMS sound driver
The GEMS sound driver used by Earthworm Jim functions improperly on Mega Drive hardware that has a discrete YM2612, most notably on Model 1 units. On these systems, the music and sound effects have noticeable stutter. This bug doesn't occur when played on newer hardware.
Not fixed in any version.
Floating after death in Buttville
In Buttville, reach Queen Slug-for-a-Butt and bring Jim's health down to a low-enough percentage (at least 40% on the Normal difficulty), have Jim lose all his remaining health by touching the spikes surrounding the Queen, then kill her by whipping her before Jim's health drops to 0% so that Jim dies during the Queen's death cutscene. When the level restarts, Jim will be in an odd state where he'll move through the floor and be unable to fall downwards, though he can still interact with platforms.
If the last checkpoint reached was the one after the Queen's tail, it is still possible for the player to reach the Queen and kill her to finish the game while in the glitched state. Jim can be moved to the left, while carefully using the Snot platforms to put him in a position where he is able to whip the Queen.
Not fixed in any version.
