Themed Items
The score items and extra life pickups probably have something in common other than being junk food among other stuff. The Keen 1 items are based mainly on food items that the ID Software team consumed while they developed the game (not sure about the book and teddy bear though). The Keen 2 and 3 it...

Re: Commander Keen Catalog
Yep, the information was copied from old catalogs. I'm not very familiar with the code used for TXT2COM. If I had some source code from the catalogs to work with, I could probably do it. I'm more familiar with the C# language on windows applications.

Commander Keen Catalog
You probably remember Commander Keen being advertised in Apogee's on-disk catalogs. Apogee had mainly the blue background catalog with white text like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSVl2LltXFY . Then in the mid-90s they had 16-color catalogs like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbgKl...

Re: Keen 3 in Galaxy style
Haven't posted any stuff in a year. Nothing too exciting, but I think Keen 3 may also look good in 4-color CGA. Cyan-purple isn't the prettiest color scheme, but with the aid of composite video, it may look just as good as EGA. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ro96lk3hbozfdny/Level8CGAEGA.png?dl=1

Re: Keen 3 in Galaxy style
Afraid I don't have the means and skills to make even a demo of the mod. However I can continue to whet your appetite with additional shots. Any skilled modder who is willing to take on the making of the mod, I can provide graphics and sprites as best I can. Feast your eyes on these: https://dl.drop...

Re: Keen 3 in Galaxy style
Three new screenshots, what a treat: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/umnlde9ah26yvfq/Level7Screenshot.png?dl=1 A tower in Level 7. There are two easter eggs in the picture. If you can translate them, you might know what they allude to. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/o9vznov3ttler7d/Level9-2...

Re: Need art help for big Keen easter egg/tribute
Playing as one of the creatures. That's a neat idea. If I had to choose which creature to play as it would be the Treasure Eater. Mind you it would cool to play as a Vorticon, maybe Lieutenant Barker or a Baby Vorticon.

Two new screenshots I had time to cook up. So here they are: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ampbijfrk85a0ag/Level9Screenshot.png?dl=1 Ever wondered what happened to the Vorticon Mothership in Episode 3?

Re: Keen 3 in Galaxy style
The floating messenger indeed is a reference to Duke Nukem II.
The city backdrop is a recolored version of the one in the third episode of "Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure".
