Earthworm Jim 3 by Waixing?

Well the game itself is definitely a complete ripoff of Earthworm Jim 2, although if I remember correctly the staircase level is supposed to be a bonus stage. (I don't remember the original game very well) The sound engine sounds like the one used in Chengdu's games and Waixing's earlier games and one of the sound effects sounds like it was taken from the keyboard typing game off the keyboard Famiclones.

...And they left the salamander level in! I don't recall either of the existing EWJ2 pirates including that. Wow. Of course it controls horribly (what, salamanders can't move while floating?), but still.

I'm pretty sure this game is a rebranded version of Earthworm Jim 3, the title screen kind of looks like it was made up in 5 minutes.

BTW, KingPepe beat the game earlier and mentioned that there's some credits in Chinese. Not sure why he hasn't bothered posting this yet but whatever.

Now I'd like to see a dump of Monkey King, seeing as that looks like a poor man's Batman: Return of the Joker IMO.

And yeah, forgot to mention the ending here.

The elevator stage was mandatory to get to the 2nd half of the first level IIRC, just like in this pirate.

I agree with that.
