It's a bit difficult to manage the right angle in certain areas. The camera always seems to be too close to the action. Jim's roll effect leaves a bit to be desired, but otherwise we've no complaints. However, something must be done about the camera system. It's really beginning to weigh onto the whole experience.
Camera system is awful.
We've tried forcing it behind Jim's back using the R button, but this doesn't work all of the time and even when it does, it's still far too close to the character to give us a full view of the 3D environments we are exploring. While the game's camera system is not so damaging that it ruins Earthworm Jim 3D, it definitely puts a noticeable dent in the title. Viewpoint issues aside, though, we've got very few complaints in regards to what Vis Interactive has achieved visually for this 3D update to the Jim franchise. The game opens to reveal Jim hopping along madly from foot to foot while playing the accordion. The music, probably not everybody's favorite style, is still of excellent quality and sounds great.
