Enjoy Earthworm Jim 1 & 2 and many other great games on Desura.
Man, EWJ was awesome. Protektor & the Desura team, thank you so much for bringing these classics here!!
Also, anyone who's a fan of Doug TenNapel's work (including the point-n-click graphic adventure, "The Neverhood") should *really* check out his Kickstarter project for a spiritual-successor to The Neverhood, called Armikrog.

I'm pushing Doug and his team pretty hard to commit to (at least) Desura for the DRM-free versions, since it's the best for DRM-free Linux games. If anyone else chooses to pledge there, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me by plugging Desura in the comment thread or in a direct-message to Doug and the team, via the in-built Kickstarter message system.
like for buy the game in full version, ¡¡FREE!!
Ok, acepted, is a crazy 5.99 for the game in full version...

It is bundled with DOSBox since it is the original DOS game.

what emulator does it use?
DOSBox
Earthworm jim was my first game and was nice for the grafics back then and was absolutly addicting glad to see its being welcomed back to the gaming world
in what way is downloading an abbandonware piracy ?
The IP is still alive. it just got a remake for Consoles 2 years ago.
Simply put? Because you have no frigging idea of WHAT abandonware actually IS.
Someone has the IP, someone uses the IP.
=> This is NOT abandonware.
