Feel free- I'll be happy to compete with you. These patches can also be applied to any of the K1-3 mods.

I think it is premature to discuss any sort of buying rights unless we know the price. I think if were seriously interested in this, then we should contact Zenimax on our own behalf- not involving Tom because we can't represent him, and ask them what it would take for us to gain these rights. The on...

Nice title screen. Could we see a screenshot of gameplay???

Shooting a bounder causes it to jump higher than it would normally before it lands.

I don't think so. Usually when I'm playing Slug Village they come back down when I'm pogoing for a pyramid of goodies and knock me out mid-jump. Is it possible to get the ice cream at the top of the pyramid on hard? The only thing I can think of to get it is shooting the bounder while being on top ...

Once enemies have moved so far off screen, except for certain sprites like elevators, they "deactivate" and freeze until Keen gets close enough to interact with them. This is done to preserve memory. This being said, Skypests seem to have a lot more space before they get deactivated

I thought you said it was Poison Slugs back when you did those pacifist runs... That was because at the time I couldn't shoot. Poison Slugs aren't a problem when you can shoot. I do think they're well designed- I like how they look, their animations, the way you kill them, the way they move- I just...

For some reason, the enemy that is always killing me in Keen 4 isn't the dopefish, isn't the berkeloids, or the rimrocks or arachnuts. It's the skypests. Even when you know where they are going to be, they fly in such a random nature that its incredibly hard to avoid them. You wouldn't think that li...

I'm still glad he/she cares though.

Check out 4:15! That's virtually impossible- I tried for a long time to do that and I couldn't pull it off. There's only a couple of pixels of error, and if the slug stops part way through your finished. But apparently it can be done! The Isle of Fire was really impressive too. Keen was mere pixels ...

Alright, I finished it, with a score of 1314900, and 120+ ammo. The 314 was completely coincidental. I wasn't able to get any further without in level saving. And the secret levels I ended up having to save scum. However, I was very pleased with it. I think the whole thing was very well done. I also...

I found what could be a very bad virus. After beating the Oracle and then Lichen Caves, I found it impossible to enter the ice like level right next to and above lichen caves. I know there's a level there because the flag pole is there. Is this "glitch" intentional (which actually wouldn't...

So I downloaded the mod, and I started playing on hard, trying to beat it with only saving when its time to do something else. So far, I've completed: The Oracle Pyramid of Time The Damp Woods Vitrium Lichen Caves Gnostiene Village Pyramid of Light I haven't found any secret levels yet, but I have a...

I feel like this a lot. The end result: I cannot watch movies by myself anymore. Every time I do I feel like I'm wasting time that I could be spending doing something more valuable. I also cannot watch tv because it feels addictive and wasteful, but livestreaming an episode of a favorite show is oka...

If you're still having trouble with the underwater level: For the underwater dead animation sprite cache problem, try: %patch $2FBAE $09DC176ERL #Dead sprawled %patch $2FBCC $09DC176ERL #Dead clutched This makes the game have keen simply die and not print a sprite. This might be useful if you just c...
