Also, due to breaking away to look up how to destroy that fuse, I just now discovered that you're allowed to save anytime, even in the middle of a level, instead of being restricted to saving in the central hub. You've been playing all these episodes without saving in the middle of levels? I'm impr...

Turkey Puncher was the fun part of Doom 3. :) I actually really liked Hexen...it had some really awesome stuff going on, what with the ACS and stuff. Although Doom is one of my favorite games, I've found that it doesn't have the same kind of lastability as Keen does. The Keen universe and games just...

Holy crap, you got that treasure eater? :O I have tried so many times to catch that damn smirky, but he always beats me to it. Nice job! I went back to the videos of us all doing Xky's Keen 1 level experiment doohickey and watched KeenRush's video to see if the same kind of coordination was there, a...

Whoa, man...this is impressive. Whenever I try to play Episode I die. A lot. I'm proud if I can beat one level. But I don't have these kinds of skills, so that's what one expects.

I haven't been able to watch it all the way through, but if I find time I'll have to see much more.

The funny thing is that, the whole time I was building this level, I was afraid of making it too short. When I found myself running out of time with only "half" of the intended level finished, I had to hurry certain parts, and so it actually ended up being much shorter than I wanted it to ...

I had to watch the video several times to really grasp how KR was skipping through that like it's the easiest thing ever. Seriously, I have tried MANY times to land that jump, but I always end up doing something funny and dying. (I don't even want to know how I'll manage those other ones below...) I...

I think KeenRush only posted to confirm what Xky suspected. (It was a reasonable guess...especially with the KR spelled out at the beginning of the level. )

I reviewed all levels, mine included. All very fun in their own ways. :) Good work all. Level 1: Simple layout, with a lot of jumping. The lack of decoration and use of only a couple of tile types was actually executed quite well and made this level interesting. The issue I had with it was that it w...

I prematurely wrote:I will officially not be able to finish my level in time.

lol, the level's done now.

I will officially not be able to finish my level in time. I've been so busy with other things that I haven't had time to work on it. Which is a shame because the level had been shaping up nicely.

But anyway, I'm excited to see what everybody else has produced!

KeenRush wrote:Garg, it's not even half done yet.

I feel you.

Don't say that! If we all believe, we can make our own awesome levels too!

Although I don't know how awesome mine will be...I've lost a LOT of time with schoolwork and traveling and such. Although I'm working diligently nonetheless.

I've been gone all week, which means that that's a week that I haven't been able to work on my level. >: Oh, well, I think I'll be able to finish it in time anyway...

Agree with CKGuy. Although I'm more the kind of person who switches between phases...I'll go through a period where I'm doing lots of Commander Keen, then after a while my focus will shift to Doom (as it happens, my 2nd-favorite game), then back to Keen again...I never truly MOVE ON, I just shift in...

I tried this, and I ended up in some wacky world where Keen was walking among a scramble of random tiles and enemies which had nothing to do with my level. I figured out eventually what the problem was: I had set my level size to 200x100, which, as it turns out, is actually insanely large and can't ...
