Eddy platforming through various obstacles in the game.
Players control the Eds, the series' titular characters, to collect raffle tickets for competition in a contest to win a lifetime supply of jawbreakers. Ed, Edd (called Double D), and Eddy use resourceful means to earn money, solve physical puzzles, interact with neighborhood children, and find hidden goodies across 29 levels. Ed can head-butt; Double D can use a slingshot or a wrench and activate context-sensitive switches; and Eddy can use the hypnotizing wheel or the jetpack. Players control one Ed at a time, each with his own unique strength and weakness, and may dynamically cycle through the three main characters. Some of the levels feature cut-scenes at their beginnings and conclusions.
Releaseedit
On June 21, 2002, Crave Entertainment announced that it had acquired the rights to create an Ed, Edd n Eddy video game, which they were developing for the Game Boy Advance.[2] Featuring characters from the series in a plot around a lifetime jawbreaker giveaway along with animated cutscenes, the game's announcement included a tentative release date in late 2002.[3] On April 3, 2003, BAM! Entertainment announced that it had shipped Jawbreakers! to retailers.[4]
Ed, Edd n Eddy: Jawbreakers! received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to the review aggregatorMetacritic, which rated it 49 out of 100 based on five critic reviews.[5]IGN's Craig Harris criticized the game's lack of a tutorial as well as the game's timing, as its blueprints are based on The Lost Vikings, which was shipped as a Game Boy Advance conversion only a week before Jawbreakers!'s release.[6] Others complained of lack of indication as to time necessary to complete levels coupled with each level's time limit. Its review in the magazine Nintendo Power noted, "Since the characters have unusual strides, the movement can be slow and unpredictable."[7]
