If you're trying to use Modid, your Keen 7 folder should have these files: https://i.postimg.cc/pTPGLc9r/run-modid-keen7.png Then open the Keen 7 folder in a terminal and run this command: modid -export -gamedef=keen4_ega_apogee_14.def -bmpdir=bmp If you run it in a terminal you'll be able to see if...

Modkeen is actually really outdated by now. You'll probably want to use ModID, which is basically an update to Modkeen. They work the same for the most part, and ModID doesn't have to deal with the confusing separated colors and black/white masks (which is a lot of hassle to deal with, and if you ju...

Yeah, that's a good point! I think there's a few web games that should probably be added to KeenWiki somewhere. I think there was another one around here somewhere called Captain Rixot. I don't know if there's already a section on KeenWiki for web games, but I feel like I saw one or two old ones lis...

he is just doped on vitalin lol

I had a dream today that Nisaba posted a preview of the way the solid terrain would work in the Foray engine, with a little interactive example on a website. The ground looked almost exactly like the same 2.5D style as in Goodbye Galaxy but it was made of 3D vertices instead of 2D tiles so it was a...

Well if you say so, no matter how many compliments i get im always ashamed because of other better successful artist. Sorry i bring personal stuff into i bring another piece in offering I can relate... I've always been really perfectionist (and only fairly recently realized... that's actually not a...

So here's my thoughts on Keen's character--at least my version of his character... There are a few of reasons for his general confident and positive attitude. The first is that he's a genius, and he can see the big picture so he mostly knows that things are going to work out in the end. Second, he'...

Oh dude, Paranoid Cactus was also the one that made the really smooth Keen jumping animation thing on Twitter. Doesn't look like that sprite is in this game though.

Oh my gosh I love your art style. :D Especially the faces. Spot's expression is adorable. :lol You've got really good proportions too. That's a cleanly drawn hand in the middle pose, and I know that can be real difficult to do. And the poses are a lot better than anything I can do presently lol. Is...

I wanted Keen to genuinely idolize his brother and have this emotional attachment to the helmet. I like this idea. Please use it. To be perfectly honest I'm really not a fan of the "siblings at each others throats" schtick. I mean, Keen already has to put up with Mortimer's torment and th...

Thank you so much proYorp for revitalizing my childhood memories! :D Awesome, happy to help! :D I'm kind of surprised I recognized it. I haven't seen that game in ages, though I think there was a moment in time when I was pretty obsessed with it. I guess I heard "rectangular shapes" and &...

Which levels would you say are the most enjoyable for you? What factors contribute to your definition of enjoyable -- action, aesthetic, nostalgia, or others? Level maps for reference: https://keenwiki.shikadi.net/wiki/Keen_5_Levels Sorry for the wait. I still haven't had time to respond to and vote...

Looks like I just used the 640x400 canvas size, since that screenshot is the full image. The only 640x400 screen format option in DeluxePaint is "E-VGA - 256 colors" so I guess that's what I used. I'm trying to remember what I did to get that effect. It looks like I used the "Raster&q...

There was a simple puzzle game that involved blocks of various rectangular shapes. All blocks were colored blue, except one in the middle, which was red, and the goal was to move the red block outside the surrounding blue blocks. I think it worked like a slide puzzle. Hang on wait, that actually so...
