Re: Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption

I've been wondering something. You've mentioned having two left hands on many occasions. Are you just saying that to describe feeling clumsy, or do you literally mean that both hands have the thumb on the right side when both palms are facing down? Of course not! "Double-left-handed" mean...

Re: Commander Keen - Canmore's Redemption

https://i.ibb.co/12P5DyF/neon-city.png This looks dang cool. I did not expect to see a face that detailed in EGA and it gives a surprising uncanny feeling... The contrasting warm/cool colors make it a feast for the eyes. And the bright neon on black terrain, yes. It's quite a bit like a design conc...

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Nominations (end on February 21)

This absolutely justifies my Keenest Person of the Year nomination of you, proYorp! I'm amazed at how keen you can really get! Are you sure your username isn't proKeen? (By the way, how's the Keen 4 demake going? I was so pleasantly shocked to see that you were still working on it a year ago!) Ah--...

Re: Foray in the Forest (development thread)

But the most exciting news will probably be that I can say for sure that this mod will be released this year ! Yo that's big news! :O I sort of wanted to offer to help with writing the story/proofreading but it sounds like that's taken care of and I also am not sure how much time I'd have free to c...

Re: Where to start?

Where you should start depends on what you want to do. If you're interested in the story, start with Episode 1. There's a progressive plotline that takes place through the episodes in order (spoiler: it was never officially completed but we have a set of mods considered to be "fanon" to re...

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Nominations (end on February 19)

Ok I think it's ready! My nominations: Best Vorticon Mod Not too much on the Vorticons mod front this year, however I noticed that Venture to Vorti Peaks by Excuses received a quiet update on their github on January 1 2022, which is the version that I played. It's a very nice lighthearted little adv...

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Nominations (end on February 19)

oh gosh it's a deadline :dead2 How does anyone feel about nominating KeenWiki? I don't want to knock down all of those who made valuable contributions to that site last year, but it's already won this award in the last two years back-to-back... True, KeenWiki is OP. Maybe it could be its own categor...

Re: Keen 6 Least Favorite Level?

Bloog Aeronatics and Space Administration is a very nifty name, though it is ultimately a play on NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration). And of course, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. No one is wrong for liking or disliking a particular level; the goal of this poll is to ga...

Re: Keen 6 Least Favorite Level?

Fair enough. I want to do a good thoughtful playthrough before voting but I have some ideas off the top of my head. Lol... maybe that extra effort is what's been holding me up from doing the other polls. :crazy

Keen 6 Least Favorite Level?

Which levels do you skip playing, or put off as long as you can? Why? Which ones seem to become more tedious than fun? Level reference list: https://keenwiki.shikadi.net/wiki/Keen_6_Levels Vote for up to 3 options, preferably as many as you can think of since we only have a small user base to collec...

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Nominations

Isn't it time Keen Awards got its own subforum?? Not sure if a permanent subforum would be needed that is only active for a relatively short time a year. I'm okay with the current way, arranged with Fleexy a few years ago. I can think of a few reasons why it would be helpful to at least have a dedi...

Re: MILDLY NEAT -- For all your random Keenery needs!

Thanks for the tip Benvolio. Very interesting, that explains a lot. Like it's clearly not just badly drawn artwork, there's some skill there, but why is it like this? :lol I'd wondered about this before when I found another strange disk cover . More closeup of the Keen cover at 9:55 in the video . I...
