Re: Commander Keen - Aurora Bliss (RELEASE)

The numbering of your versions is a bit inconsistent. Therefore the question: is your last update to be understood as v1.1.1 or v1.2? I was thinking v.1.1.1. Mostly because I didn't change the loading window to 1.2 There should be just one more update to this, which would be 1.2. I am mostly doing ...

Re: Commander Keen - Aurora Bliss (RELEASE)

I found a bug of sorts in Echo Caverns. I saved near where the Madness was and died. When I reloaded, the screen was centered on another area below where I actually was (where I had been prior). This happened multiple times, so I finally used the invincibility cheat to get through. Ah, I see what h...

Re: Commander Keen - Aurora Bliss (RELEASE)

As Ceilick mentioned, if you're playing the original version it is possible to do things out of sequence (collecting the green gem at the start of the level). If you're playing the latest update, you'll need to use that same green gem to open the door that's next to the Undead Trapper( slug replacem...

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Winners

I've won only two awards? This is an outrage! I will report this to the internet police, m`laddo. :disguised All jokes aside, I wasn't even thinking anyone would play my mod, let alone that I would win something. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for the nominations, and thank you to everyo...

Re: Was I No Net (made by DarkDave1985)

Be warned though, the difficulty level is not for the faint of heart. :mort
You weren't kidding. I played it for 15 minutes, and I feel that I aged at least 4 years in the process. I think I see my first gray hair coming.

Re: Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption

That said, it was great too, I just didn't like... for example these rose trees at all, such large objects without a lot of detail look kinda off. To be quite frank with you, now that I look back on Aurora, I see a lot of room for graphical improvement. I looked back on some tiles I drew and though...

Re: Foray in the Forest (development thread)

But the most exciting news will probably be that I can say for sure that this mod will be released this year! I haven't been very active in expressing how I am looking forward for the release. I can't wait! Everything I seen so far looks so epic! I love that each level will have it's own theme. It'...

Re: Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption

drone that identifies the player's position and suddenly hurls itself at him could be fine. Neat idea! the map looks tile-y, if that makes sense. Spaces are very clearly defined as strips of tiles: the road, the cliff, the...lake?, the...rocks? Excellent advice. I was wondering why certain parts of...

Re: Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption

Thanks for feedback! I'll PM everyone who is interested with the completed mod to playtest once it's done.

I am going for the cyberpunk vibe.The background *is* a little grainy. I was trying to make the city glow and look foggy as well which does look little chaotic. I'll look into it.

Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption

I am about half way done on Aurora Bliss sequel - Canmore's Redemption! So far I am very satisfied with the project. CR will feature 13 unique songs, 2 endings and 2 epilogues. Toneally it will be slightly more serious than Bliss, but also spinkled with same wackiness that was present in it's predoc...

Re: Commander Keen - Aurora Bliss (RELEASE)

Thanks for creating and sharing this excellent and enjoyable mod and for releasing an update. Unfortunately, I have ran into a problem in the Infested Mine level on Normal difficulty. Thanks for playing it. If it's unreachable in normal, then you're right, it was erased by mistake. I am sorry for t...

Re: Commander Keen - Aurora Bliss (RELEASE)

Version 1.1 is out. Unfortunately, I lack the free time to playtest & hunt for errors as thoroughly as I want. I also don't want to bother other people to do it for me. In the meantime, I'll be working *very slowly* on another Keen project, and play through some mods I haven't played yet. Feel f...

Re: Commander Keen - Aurora Bliss (RELEASE)

Honestly, I'm well aware it's something most people don't notice, but feel free to let me know, I'll be glad to help. Sure. I am not a native engish speaker and I don't pay much attention to punctuation while writing. If you'd be so kind PM me whenever you notice this errors, I'd be grateful. The f...

Re: Why do you like Keen?

Lately I've been replaying games that I've played as a kid just to see if they were actually great or was it nostalgia, Keen being one of them. So, I've replayed all the games in the series including the unofficial TUiT and I can honestly say that most of these games really stand the test of time. T...

Re: Commander Keen - Aurora Bliss (RELEASE)

Soon. I am mostly fixing tile errors which, to which my surprise, there were a ton. A ton of tile misplacements that look weird or I placed in a wrong area. I think Aurora Bliss is not considered to be a work in progress since it's finished, and an update will just fix some errors that were found in...
