The 20th anniversary reboot of 2D platformer Boogerman will include a two-player co-op mode featuring fellow retro star Earthworm Jim, developer Toy Ghost LLC announced via Kickstarter.

Earthworm Jim and the game's co-op are available as an optional pledge tier. Content will be automatically included at the $40 level, while those who wish to add the content later for an additional cost need only pledge at the $12 level. The add-on also features exclusive new levels.

Earthworm Jim starred in his own series of side-scrolling action platformers in the '90s. Players took on the role of the titular annelid, who, with the help of his robotic suit, battled strange villains.

Boogerman's funding campaign launched Oct. 16. The campaign is attempting to raise $375,000 by Nov. 20. If funded, the game will launch for Windows PC, Mac, Linux, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Xbox One and Wii U in November 2014.

So this is what happens to those that worked on FUSE. RIP in peace.

I want a new Earthworm Jim game not bugger man

Id love a new Earthworm Jim

Damn, all that snot and farting was so funny when I was like 10. Do not know if I would find it amusing now. 

So many things on Kickstarter nowadays, does the industry have no faith/funds to put into games anymore?

Huh, sounds good. I never really thought about a co-op in earthworm jim, but I would be glad to see a new one! The boogerman was fun when i was a kid on the genesis, but im much older now, not sure if it would be as fun flicking boogers and farting and burping my enemies to hell. actually i think i still have the game packed away with the genesis.
