Public Commander Keen Forum

As one of the oldest members in this forum, this life story is probably going to give most of you a good estimate of how old I really am. I dislocated my left kneecap trying out for the baseball team in high school. Physical therapy wasn't as big of a thing like it is now, so the doctor had me baby ...

Have continued playing but quickly hit the issues with crashing in Skidrow District. Like Nowhere Girl, I must admit I play on Easy because I'm rubbish at Galaxy and constantly crash into hazards for no good reason. The problem is happening in the bottom right corner of the level, seemingly as soon...

I'm in SKidrow District too now and I have no technical issues, maybe because I only play Commander Keen games on the easiest settings. ;) I'm just too double-left-handed for normal mode, even easy is sometimes too hard for me. Anyway, I got stuck again precisely because of a double-left-handedness...

Yes, unfortunately that does seem to happen. I really wish I could have figured out what causes it and I would gladly fix it in an update, but only thing that comes to mind is removing the level all together which is also not ideal since I like Skidrow District. I suspect that Spammer guy's patches...

The game is freezing up on me in Skidrow District on normal.

...well, cracking the encrypted notes with brute force could be legitimate... neat puzzle btw Plus I am one of those uncultured Americans that can only speak one language. I was learning Spanish back in high school and community college. I was about half to 3/4 fluent. Had I stuck with it, I would ...

What an unexpected and really colourful experience. First: finding your way around in the first place. Second: explore, explore, explore. Third: decipher not only one foreign language but at least two, if you can find the notes. Fourth: join the resis.. ahem, the party, I mean. And fifth: "Smi...

I forgot that it's possible to check the level name. So I'm in "Toombree Ruins" level, and as for place... how am I supposed to describe it better? There's a bridge with three pink signs and a switch on the right side, two pink signs on the left, and above there's a yellow gem... but the ...

So now I remember - I'm stuck on a "pink" bridge which has a yellow gem above, or rather on my inability to actually get ON that bridge. ;) So more distant switched won't work? But the closest pink switch doesn't work for this bridge either... And now, I don't mean "getting stuck&quo...

I choose The Bloogdome , Bloogville and Bloogbase Management District as my least favorite levels. I very rarely if ever skip levels in any official Keen game or mod. The only level off the top of my head that I know for a fact I skip most of the time is Impossible Palace in the Keen 8 Community Lev...

Have you ever heard of the Impossible Pogo Trick? It's when you hit the pogo key (Alt) while you are on the floor and then hold the jump key (Ctrl) just about right away, blasting you off to a greater height and distance than the usual pogo jump. That's how you gain access to the great secret in th...

As a Keener who tries to complete levels without in-level saving Pyramid of the Forbidden is one of the very few levels that I was never able to do that.

Fair enough!! What do you think of the record? (Not to disregard the rest of your recent listenings of course but Metallica have that special status for many of us.) I started streaming it Friday morning shortly after I got home from work. I preordered the CD as far back as November or December and...
