I will do so when next I get home! It just came in a jewel case, the only artwork is on the CD.

I have no collection of games sadly. Unless a 3drealms Keen CD from circa 2003 counts. It might not be a collector's item now but give it another 20 or 30 years!

Age of Empires II is really the only video game besides Keen that has formed an important part of my life - I would probably rank them equally in importance for me as although there is a lot more playing in AOEII, on the other hand modding Keen was my primary hobby for four of the most formative yea...

Beautiful. I am of the belief that beauty is intrinsic to old things relative to new things. This applies to cars, buldings and music. And I'm pretty sure it applies to computers too. In fact, I would love little more than to open a museum of old computers. 80s PCs might seem unremarkable to today's...

Haha it feels weird to think that I could be considered "OG" by any metric, but on the other hand, I released my first Keen mod when I was 14, and I'm currently 29, so more than half of my life has elapsed since I've been on the PCKF. That's pretty wild. :dead2 Hello! I was a big fan of "The Last M...

Hi springpop and welcome to PCKF. Doesnt look like anybody noticed your topic. I don't own that disk (and lamentably I cannot find the magazine 5 1/4 disk I had Keen1 on). It does sound like a bizzarre thing that happened to you/your disk. Have you any pictures to show us??? It would be interesting ...

Yeah I too had a particular fascination with the Keen6 demo levels presumably because of the hallowed status of Keen6 as a slightly forbidden game. I was particularly fond of the Bloogton Manufacturing level and I think it inspired a lot of my long vertical levels from my mods. I also thought Guard ...

One obscure artist I've found is known as Klereherrie.

Just went back and had another look... my favourite is that Eiffel 65 cover on the floppy drives.

Soon I will endeavour to check all of those out! But today, in Ireland we have the rather foolish tradition of calling the 1st of February the start of spring... clearly this is not in keeping with 21st century climate patterns. At any rate, this song comes to mind - the emotionally harrowing conten...

Thanks for links. Looks a little to unwieldy a way to play keen for my tastes. Although I acknowledge that the German guy is still figuring out what he is doing. I would personally have had more interest using them in driving or flying games for example, where I would imaging the physical nature of ...

Fantastic piece of work. I love Aussie creativity, most of the best original and fanfic type stuff seems to originate down there these days. I wonder are the makers of it PCKFers? Whilst here I am prompted by the paltry flutter of snow that London has awoken to this morning, to say that I hope all i...

Not opposed to your idea but genuinely wondering is there enough traffic on this site these days to warrant more than a small handful of mods (moderators I mean! We definitely need more mods! ) ?

I would genuinely be interested if you or someone could do a Youtube Video (with camera showing joystick) to give an idea of how it works and how different the gameplay is.
