Re: Keen Dreams: dropped veggies

It's worth noting that the "mushrooms" referenced in the source code could quite possibly be the Mad Mushrooms that later appeared in Keen 4. After all, they did repurpose a song originally meant for Keen Dreams in Keen 4, so they could've done the same with an enemy, too.

Re: Corrupt A Wish game

Granted. Your game becomes popular on YouTube and you enjoy it for some time until MatPat comes along and makes an insane theory about your game.

I wish Adrian Carmack didn't hate Keen so much.

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Nominations (end on February 19)

I edited my post to add another nomination, but I did that before there were any posts after it so it wasn't marked as edited. Can you add my extra nomination?

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Nominations

Well, I can't think of anything else this year but to shamelessly plug my own stuff. I don't think anyone else has nominated them anyways. 1.7: Best Tool Patch Calculators by TheBigV 2.3: Best Music Keen 8-bit remixes by TheBigV Welcome To A Kick In The Pants In Yoshi's Island by TheBigV Atroxian Re...

Here's some footage of a prototype NES homebrew port of Dangerous Dave I've been working on:

Re: Commander Cool in "Where's My Bears?" (FULL RELEASE)

Thanks for the feedback! I think I might've noticed that glitch before but didn't think it was something that really needed to be fixed. Also, not too long after I released the update I made this trailer for the mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-miHa6kC7mU Release 2 still doesn't have a KeenWiki...

Re: MILDLY NEAT -- For all your random Keenery needs!

So recently I was playing around with DeluxePaint for DOS, and discovered something interesting: https://i.postimg.cc/W4NXW68v/dp-001.png I found the exact font used to make the title screens in Keen: Vorticons! (Specifically, the "Olive" font at 12 pixels.) This means that any modder with...

Re: Commander Cool in "Where's My Bears?" (FULL RELEASE)

And release 2 is finally out! There's nothing too major in this release, in spite of the long wait. I'm leaving open the possibility for another release, but that may not happen for a while. Changes: Removed the "D" switch and bridge in the final level, which didn't look right when activat...

I'm glad you like it! I was actually thinking about how this might be something you'd like when I was releasing it!

Re: Commander Cool in "Where's My Bears?" (FULL RELEASE)

Oh, dear. It's been over a year since the first release, and I still haven't put out the second release I announced. Sorry about that, real life got in the way.

At any rate, hopefully there shouldn't be much more of a delay for the second release, as I am now working on getting that out.

Re: Your Own Keen Music!

I made an 8-bit cover of Spiro Grip Me Tighter: https://youtu.be/5QPSMZUlD90 Are... you sure those are the right notes at 0:15? I feel like the harmony is off, relative to the original. I don't think I got any notes wrong at that particular part, however, I did notice a note was a bit off at anothe...

Re: Keen Awards 2021: Winners

While I'm a little disappointed that I didn't succeed in winning an award this time, I'm at least kind of happy for everyone who won a Keen Award for the first time!
