My brother got me a Hope Heralds CD as part of my Christmas present last year. Its title is "Our Sacrifice of Praise." My school's library has a sale of books and such every year. Last (calendar) year, there were a bunch of records for sale. I bought some, including "Hooked on Classic...

I was playing Scribblish with my sisters, and we had a strip go like this. Guess which panel is my contribution.Scribblish
Edit: How do I get the image to show up in my post?

Is there a patch for making Episode 6 version 1.5 into version 1.4? I can't play AAMBA with my current version.

I finally am on Spring Break and thus started this game yesterday. Likes: Title Screen-I think Mort's smile is the essence of evil genius. Mountains- I enjoyed the split-level design in Dead in the Desert, and I'm glad you used it again. Flag Holders- I just decoded the SGA The Shikadi's (Shikadis'?...

I think I said this before, but I like the design of the slurple. They're kind of cute. They do, however, jump really high for globs of slime. Maybe they could be made to jump at a slightly lower height. In connection with slurples, I think maybe the Slime Temple could be relabeled "Slurple Cit...

i suppose Corn Colonel also works, because it makes a little more sense than colonel corn does. who pronounces it as col-o-nel, anyways? anyway, aside from the saving issue, this is an epic mod/add-on to own. According to Bill Bryson's book, The Mother Tongue , when "colonel" was adopted ...

I saw those songs, but I'm not sure I want to download them because each song plays at least twice. If I can't find anything else, I probably will.

I'd like to download most of the songs from Keens 4-6 so I can listen to them on my MP3 player. The only site I found, Keito's page, where I downloaded the unused Keen 5 song, is no longer extant. I downloaded the music pack from the Keen Wiki, but when I tried to extract the files, I got a message ...

I like the luminescent slug poop.

I think many people have addressed most of my concerns. The ones that remain for me are mostly grammar, usage, and punctuation. Yes, I am one of those people, but I think polishing the three abovementioned areas would help make a more professional-looking mod.
First, all instances of "canon'' should be "cannon."
Second, the ending sequence could be improved.
On page five, where Mortimer first addresses Keen, he says, "...The doors have closed behind you and their is no escape." That's the wrong form of the word. It should be "there."
On page six, Mortimer says, "This isn't really a Universal Toaster Canon, what a stupid idea." It should be, "This isn't really a Universal Toaster Cannon; what a stupid idea." Avoid comma splices.
On page seven, there should be a comma after "forever."
On page eight, there should be a comma after "time."
Whenever Keen finds a key, he says, "Alright! This is a key to Mort's base!" "Alright" is not a standard word and should be written out as two words.
One of the key-find texts displays this: "I wonder where the rest of the keys are?" That is an indirect question, and indirect questions do not require a question mark.
There are some errors in the help file, but I’ll put them up later when I run my copy of “The Keys of Krodaciaâ€￾ the next time.

Wowzer, Arjak! This story is great. I like your approach and the way you write. Please write some more.

It's a reference to Revelation 3:20.

I bought a USB floppy drive online so I could install Keen 6 on a Vista computer with a view to playing Dead in the Desert. However, the drive asked me to format every disk I put in it. After about five minutes of research online, I think I found that my problem. I believe that the device needs new ...
