The game follows Jimmy Neutron as he returns from outer space with an alien life-form stowaway. The alien, a Twonkie, starts out as a cuddly and cute creature, but quickly becomes a ferocious beast with a voracious appetite for destruction.

Players control Jimmy as he makes his way through six episodes spanning 15 levels. Each episode takes place in a different location, including Jimmy’s Lab, Twonkus-3, The Neighborhood, Downtown, Retroland, and the Final Showdown.

In addition to the main story mode, the game also features a challenge mode. In challenge mode, players must complete a series of levels as quickly as possible. There are three different difficulty levels in challenge mode, and players can earn medals for completing levels quickly.
