Re: Best image editing program for editing graphics for a Keen mod?

I believe my favorite version of mspaint is the Windows Vista version, which is almost identical to the XP version except for a slightly improved zoom functionality. I have also occasionally used Paint.net for Keen projects, specifically for rotating images. When doing this, save the image file sepa...

Re: Good introductory guide for Galaxy modding?

Just wanted to mention that I'm available on Discord to assist anyone with modding issues, and genuinely appreciate them being brought up to me so that I can update the tutorial. I find that even I refer back to the tutorial frequently when modding in recent years, so I may not have an answer to que...

Re: Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption (RELEASE)

This came out a lot sooner than expected! The story is fun, and graphics look great! I've only played the first level so far, and I must be really rusty because I found it a bit of a challenge on normal :o Will comment more once I've had time to play!

Re: Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption

Stunning work, I love the overuse of blue! It's amazing that you can pack in so much color into some of these shots and yet everything still has definition to it. I know you said the world map is bare bones right now, but this was an element of Aurora Bliss as well; the map looks tile-y, if that mak...

Re: Keen 6 Least Favorite Level?

1. The First Dome of Darkness: I think this level is just filler and scraping the barrel for creativity. The upper area is overly simple but might get a pass if the entire underground of the level wasn't complete nonsense. 2. Bloog Aeronautics and Space Administration: I think the requirement for th...

Re: Operation Station Infiltration

Version 1.03 is out! Almost all changes are technical fixes by Multimania, and no significant content or level design changes have been introduced. Your save files should be compatible with this update. Additionally, Multimania has made progress on the DOS16 version of the game, but it is still und...

Re: Operation Station Infiltration

The two big secret areas in the game, one of them being the entrance to the secret level, are each found in a different optional level ;)

Re: Keen 15: The Final Showdown

I’m happy to help with creature design! It seems this will be a mix of robots, magical creatures, and a couple bosses? I’m not sure how extensively you’ll be modding/coding enemies, since this is a source mod, so send me a message on what concepts you have or what enemies you need replacements for.

Re: Aliens and Their Just Desserts

Thanks for the responses so far, guys! Something I'd enjoy seeing in this mod is the Robo-Bloog from GBC, given the proper Galaxy treatment...It kind of fulfills a sort of "heavy-hitter" enemy that Keen 6 lacks... GBC's Robo-Bloog could potentially fill that void, provided it's somewhat re...

Re: Aliens and Their Just Desserts

Alright, lets get right into the cast of creatures! I definitely plan to use more of the creatures that were under utilized in the original Keen 6, including Bips/Bipships, Blorbs, Bobbas, Flects, and Nospikes (although, with the exception of the Flect, there isn't a level that specifically focuses ...

Re: Operation Station Infiltration

Thank you for the praise and comments, Scilicet and gui_tarzan! Some sounds (Sparky charge, for example) seem a little different; were they tweaked, or am I imagining things? If this occurred, it was unintentional. All the new Sparky variants use a modified sound affect from the original Sparky and ...

Re: Operation Station Infiltration

Multimania has made an update primarily related to the sound system, but also with regard to antivirus warnings and Linux compatibility. If the game is already running fine, there is no need to update at this time. Only update if you are experiencing buggy sound, your antivirus flags the game, or if...
