Here's a bit about the game from the press release:
In The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies, Aliens from Twonkus-3 — the annual comet that passes over Retroville — overrun the town and threaten everything in their path. When music plays, the aliens become agitated — multiplying and growing to tremendous proportions. It's up to Jimmy Neutron to figure out combinations of everyday items in order to turn them into inventions that will defeat the Twonkus-3 aliens. The revolutionary inventions system allows players to create more than 28 gizmos, 11 inventions and four super inventions as they maneuver through six episodes spanning 15 levels, including Jimmy's Lab, Twonkus-3, The Neighborhood, Downtown, Retroland and the Final Showdown. Secret gizmos hidden in each level give Jimmy Neutron enhanced power-ups.
