Re: FlappyVort New 2026 Release


Like the (still unreleased) XXX mod.

Anyway, this is cool. I'd like to see another version with a Keen character that actually flies, like a skypest, or a bip ship, or one of those jacks from the cave of oblivion.

NetKeen 2 Reloaded

So I've released this recreation of the (infamous) 1998 game NetKeen 2 (https://keenwiki.shikadi.net/wiki/NetKeen_2) for Windows.
It's not one to one recreation, but very close and I've added several new things that probably nobody will care about them anyways.

Re: Using AI for game music remixes

Most of these remixes sound pretty good (especially the EDM/Electronic/Rock remixes). Though I'm looking for the opposite thing. Like converting mp3 or wavs into adlib/opl2-opl3 music or straight forward just generating adlib/opl2-3-like music. It could still be mp3 or wav, but sound like the good ...

Re: New Old Keen History From Scott Miller - Apogee/3DR Founder

"Before Commander Keen began development, pre-Id Software sent me their Mario demo so I could see their new pixel-smooth scrolling engine. I was blown away, of course. Here's the little note that they sent in 1990, along with the demo disk. And this screenshot is from their demo."

Re: My indie project - TrackWeaver

Wow! This looks incredible! Even though you're using the fucl godot, which I hate, this looks impressive. I especially like the city backgrounds. And the tunnels and some other aspects remind me of games such as Grand Prix Circuit and Test Drive 2. :pogo
