Ah, yes, indeed! Link: https://twitter.com/ThatTomHall/status/1720808082807095629#m Will we see a your take on Doom level? Somedayyyyy That would be pretty cool to see! Quick question: Is Doom level editing easier than Keen level editing? I'm not very familiar with Doom modding. Since Doom seems to ...

Thoughts on the Keen Mobile art style?

So, I'm sure a lot of us remember when the infamous Keen Mobile was shown a few years ago. It received a very negative reception, with a lot of the criticism directed at the different gameplay and the fact that it's on smartphones only. One aspect that I see get a more mixed reception, however, is t...

Re: Are the games' physics documented anywhere?

Have you checked out K1n9_Duk3's recreated Keen 4-6 source code ? It all seems to be written in C++, though I don't know how easy that is to follow. Keen 1-3 has yet to have a fully recreated source code, so something like Commander Genius or VortaKeen is going to be about as close as it gets for no...

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

As I was digging through YouTube, searching for Keen-themed Mario Maker levels, I found this cool recreation of Border Village from Keen 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGRgzVDxKBo I really like how closely it follows the original level, emphasized by all the neat details. Reminds me of the time ...

Re: Could Tom Hall Make New Keen Games Using This Method?

I just checked out Tom Hall's Twitter account, and in a tweet about SIGIL II, there's this conversation: https://twitter.com/ThatTomHall/status/1720808370024681980#m When’s the @ThatTomHall new commander keen episode coming, Mr. Tom Hall? I remain forever hopeful…. Until then, my Keen Mario Maker le...

Re: Happy Halloween 2023

Happy (late) Halloween! :pumpkeen I didn't really do much for this year's Halloween, but I played Prelude a few days after it came out, and I consider that good enough! :) That's a very nice Jack-O-Lantern you've made, troublesomekeen! At first, I thought it was a Dopefish, until I saw Nospike's rep...

Could someone please mirror that image on a different site? Facebook images don't seem to display for me, and from what Nisaba and Benvolio said, it sounds very neat!

Re: Was I No Net (made by DarkDave1985)

KeenWiki article created: https://keenwiki.shikadi.net/wiki/Was_I_No_Net Even though, it's only a single level, I thought it'd be notable enough for its kaizo-like challenge (although I don't know if that'd be absent in the unreleased full version). All the article needs is a level map, which is lik...

Re: Prelude

KeenWiki article created: https://keenwiki.shikadi.net/wiki/Prelude It was kind of a pain trying to get the tilesets exported, I had to mess around with two different versions of KeenGraph (plus a so-called tileset exporter). What's weird is that one version works well with Prelude, but not Mura, wh...

Re: Best image editing program for editing graphics for a Keen mod?

Are you using Windows? Newer versions of MS Paint (which is what I assume you used) will mess up the Keen palette. Older versions (prior to Windows 7 according to Ceilick's tutorial) will work perfectly, though. They may be pretty primitive (e.g. no layers), but I find old MS Paint flexible and usef...

Re: Good introductory guide for Galaxy modding?

I, too, wholeheartedly recommended Ceilick's Galaxy modding tutorial as well. It's a huge life-saver and really helped me understand Galaxy modding, although the tutorial has really changed since then (e.g. uGrab is now the graphics tool featured instead of ModKeen). (If you want to know what versio...

Woo-hoo! Thanks for your help, Nisaba! Those two games are removed from the list. :) By looking through the Flash Keen homepage on Wayback Machine, I was able to find a link to the .swf file , which is now listed in the original post. We might have to tell the reader that they would have to use some...
