Re: Keen 6 Apogee Demo Version

As I wrote earlier, the data in the EGAGRAPH file of the Keen 6 Apogee Demo is mostly identical to the FormGen Demo, except for the three chunks I mentioned (exit screen and the two flashing arrow images). The recorded demos are also part of that file, so the demo data in the Apogee Demo is identica...

Re: Was the Impossible Pogo Trick originally a bug?

In Keen Vorticons it was a side effect of how the code worked. It is definitely a feature in Keen 4-6, there is extra code for the added pogo height on the first bounce.

Re: Keen Day package 2024

I just found another bug in The Ruin of Roib: If a piece of the exploded Slop touches a Robo Wreck, Keen will be killed. So try to lure the Slops away from any Robo Wrecks before you shoot the Slops. I suspect that it's Keen 58 where things have taken at least some efforts. I'm a bit confused. Are y...

Re: Are "source code mods" mods or fangames?

I think source code mods should be their own sub-category for the engine they are based on. So for the "Galaxy" engine, there would be Keen 4, 5, 6, Dreams and Source mods. For the "Vorticons" engine, there would be Keen 1, 2, 3 and Source mods (if we ever get to see a release of...

Re: Keen 6 Apogee Demo Version

Please allow me to ramble about what I think where the recently discovered Apogee Demo of Keen 6 fits into the timeline of the other releases. Here I go... First, the obvious: The AUDIO.CK6 and GAMEMAPS.CK6 files are identical across all three known demo versions of Keen 6 (FormGen Demo, Apogee Demo...

Re: Keen 6 Apogee Demo Version

This is very interesting. I would love to take a look at this, but Chrome doesn't like that "mega" site. Could somebody please re-upload the game files to another site? I'm not really all that interested in the raw image itself, i just want to take a look at the game files and maybe add su...

Re: Keen Awards 2023: Nominations

Pandakeen wrote: Tue Mar 05, 2024 23:29 Here's a suggestion for next year's Keen Awards: I think the nominations thread should run year-long instead of only at the end of the year. That way people can nominate stuff as soon as it comes out and not have to try and remember every cool thing that released in a year.
Yes, please.

I hope that somebody is going to address the problems and produce a fixed version. All these problems can be solved without cutting any content, don't worry.

Re: Keen Dreams Gold Edition - ICED (not removed)

Your Keen Dreams project has several issues: 1. You created an EGAHEAD file with 3-byte entries, but the code expects 4-byte entries. The game will not be able to load any of the graphics correctly. I guess this is because uGrab beta 1.011 cannot create EGAHEAD files using 4-byte entries. I guess I ...

Thanks for your detailed feedback, Soul Monster. I had announced in 2020 that I had already fixed most of the crippling bugs and that I was going to release an updated version at some point . I had always wanted to release the update to this particular mod either on Valentine's Day or on Halloween. ...

Re: The Great Galaxy-Mod Bug Hunt 2020

Some of the patches in the original release of Valo Keen were using the wrong registers, which meant the code didn't behave as intended and instead caused some memory corruption when the patched code was executed. And on top of that, the original patch file replaced parts of the game's startup scree...

Re: Level Viewer for KEEN VORTICONS and GALAXY (and more...)

Could somebody please explain the guidelines for the level images uploaded to the KeenWiki? From what I've seen, the level images appear to respect the tile's foreground setting, meaning that items hidden inside the walls are not shown. Since I am preparing new versions of the level viewers anyway, ...
