Re: Commander Keen in r/place

Threw this blueprint together real quick... https://i.postimg.cc/zGXdbkqK/r-place-stunner.png I'd say to focus on defending the black pixels because those define the shape of the object. I can't directly access the game without crashing my computer so I have to use some roundabout methods to look at...

Re: Commander Keen in r/place

Interesting... With a small community like us vs. the overall scale of this entire project, in order to compete we'd have to make something small enough to easily defend. Probably the best bet would be something like a Neural Stunner. It's small, it's iconic. And it's got a lot of variation in color...

I think before I do any more actual writing I want to get the rest of the story thoroughly plotted out, and plan which events are going to happen in each chapter. I've had...

Re: Where your Keen world and IRL intersect!

Just to preserve the context when these threads are eventually buried, this is the referenced post: https://pckf.com/viewtopic.php?p=102976#p102976 This seems like a fun discussion. Might wri...

Re: A tech tip for Keen Day 2022

I'm most intrigued by the fact that you have a WiFi card in a DOS laptop in the first place. DOS is older than Wifi, isn't it? Was the card added on later? And DOS can interface with it just fine?

"The Brightest Star" -- An Interpretation of Mortimer's Backstory

It's been quite a while since there has been a good old-fashioned fanfiction around here, hasn't it? Those of you that have been around for awhile (and those that have searched through the older discussions on here) may remember that circa 2009, a community project was begun to transform the story o...
