Public Commander Keen Forum

One of the most difficult things I've tried to recreate is the Mangling Machine in Mortimer McMire's fortress, but here is my sample. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/su899swktfqixdi/ManglingMachine.png?dl=1 I did my best to make it believable and not like some giant-sized figure from a toybox li...

Is this a reference to Duke 2?

The floating messenger indeed is a reference to Duke Nukem II.

I love the city backdrop

The city backdrop is a recolored version of the one in the third episode of "Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure".

With the Easter holidays here, I've had time to come up with a couple of more exciting screenshots: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/v8yl17xknw02yq3/Level8Screenshot.png?dl=1 Level 8 - Hal's Kitchen https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/85tzi1ad3ags2i0/Level14Screenshot.png?dl=1 Level 14 - Cape Can...

When I first saw Keen die in the Vorticon Trilogy, I thought he had been decapitated, not noticing his shoes at the bottom which instead meant he had been squashed almost flat.

Here a few more screenshots to whet your appetite on what the mod remake would look like. * https://www.dropbox.com/s/id1bb7yg00117u6/CK3-Screenshot3.png?dl=0 In game instructions showing new enemy * https://www.dropbox.com/s/8s29sesyzzopb1r/OverworldScreenshot.png?dl=0 The start of Vorticon VI * ht...

Does anyone recognise the fan art at https://web.archive.org/web/20050409073 ... :80/cc314/ ?

Great job, this looks really cool and succeeds at what it tries to do. I especially like the stairways. When I did the stairs, I lined each step three pixels apart. Took several minutes to calculate the bottom step from the top one. If the stairs were connected on-screen, the pattern would be perfe...

I've seen and tried out Dr. Colussus' great remakes of "Marooned on Mars" and "Earth Explodes". However a remake of the third game is not going to be created. I'm not skilled at modding and I'm no way a skilled artist, but I was able to put together a map that puts quite a fews things in 3D perspect...

I sometimes where Lt. Barker was when Keen was destroying the Tantalus Rays (Keen 2) and infiltrating Vorticon VI (Keen 3).

I've always pronounced it Shi-caddy.

I'd like to see what Commander Keen can do as a baby. With an IQ of 315, he'd walk and talk at the age of one.

The closest resemblance to Commander Keen in a newspaper I saw was Captain Baseball Bat and Bicycle Helmet Girl in Max Payne.

I think the game is called "Commander Keens Trek 96". How Cyber.EX (Or Cyberdigital) managed to publish this title without getting a copyright charge is a mystery. Lazy Games did a review on this weird title at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=469Br9JIrG4 along with a Jazz Jackrabbit that isn't.

When I first read this advertisement of "Fight for Justice" it got me thinking of a platforming game starring a Thor-like protagonist.

I've never used that game editor. I know that Europress Software used it to make their Living Classics storybooks. It allowed the creation of programs with minimal programming required. Alice in Wonderland was they first did. I've tried all their classics except the Hunchback of Notre Dame. These ga...
