-=[Intro]=-
I've been fan of ClayFighter series since always, and especially of
63 1/3 for the Nintendo 64, and it was a dream come true to recreate 
Earthworm Jim 10 years ago. It had to pass various years so in 2019 I 
came back to this and started again with Blue Suede Goo and to fix Jim.
After a lot of time, finally I can bring you this: a fullgame based on
this series with my characters and a personal homage to this great but
forgotten Interplay series. I hope you enjoy it ;)

-=[Story]=-
 Another meteorite has fallen on Klaymodo Island, where Dr. Kiln, 
wishing to expand on his previous success in Mudville and Clayland Park,
schemes to cover the island with clay as part of his plans for world
domination. Heroes from the past, Bad Mr. Frosty, Blob and Taffy, the
superheroes Earthworm Jim and Boogerman (the latter of whom went on
vacation there without realizing what was happening), as well as new
allies like some Kiln's creations that turned against him went to the
island to stop him and his minions.

 Planning on the heroes attempting to corner him after Blob summoned
several Clayfighters who competed in older tournaments to the island, 
Kiln created copies of all the participants to serve as his own personal
army. However, what he did not realize was that many of those clones
still remained as pure of heart as their original counterparts, while
also seeking to betray him and bring him down for good.

 The conflict between Kiln and the ClayFighters escalates to a much
grander scale. Who will become the one who puts an end to Kiln's 
ambitions first? Or will Klin finally achieve his goal of molding the 
world into his own personal clay wasteland?
