Re: Fan-art thread

I remember seeing that Yorp art on PixelJoint years ago, can't remember who made it though. Found it (it's made by "big brother" in 2021): https://pixeljoint.com/pixelart/137503.htm The difference between the raw image and that CRT picture Roobar posted is almost like day and night; it's ...

Re: Level Viewer for KEEN VORTICONS and GALAXY (and more...)

Wow, I deleted the GFXINFOE.CK4 file in the Was I No Net directory, and GalaxyView was then able to display the sprites! Thanks, K1n9_Duk3! That was a fantastic explanation as usual! I didn't think the solution would be that simple! The next version of VorticonView will support semi-transparent spri...

Re: Commander Keen 4 on the Gameboy Advance

I was digging through various topics here (searching for stuff to nominate for Keen Awards ;)), and I noticed that you ported episodes 5 and 6 to GBA several months ago! That sounds really impressive! I'm not sure why you didn't make a post about that, since I'm sure a lot of other people would love...

Keen Awards 2023: Nominations

Keen Day is less than a month away, and there's no sight of Keen Awards, until now! Grandy02 appears to have gone inactive, so I, with approval from Fleexy, will start the nominations thread (just like how most Keen Awards have their nomination threads started by a regular user). Without further ado...

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Winners

I got a PM from Fleexy, and he said that it would be great if I started the nominations thread, so I guess I'll do just that. Get ready to nominate! :D

EDIT: IT'S HERE!

Re: OFF TOPIC THREAD: Where derailing the thread is impossible!

Good point. If that's the case, maybe Fleexy could prune all of the accounts that have zero posts? That would really cut things down.

Re: OFF TOPIC THREAD: Where derailing the thread is impossible!

Now that you mention it, yeah, the quote boxes definitely don't stand out in a post as much as they could. Sometimes posts can get pretty lengthy, so it can be easy for quotes to get lost in the shuffle. Seeing a comparison of the current colors vs the custom skin, I think the custom skin looks a l...

Re: Games that embody the spirit of creativity, exploration, and experimentation with computers

Of all the games listed, I've only played Tong , because of how bonkers the concept of fusing Tetris with Pong sounded. It's actually pretty interesting and can be fun, although it can also sometimes get mind-bending and unfair. I believe I saw Liquid War on another list of recommended free games (w...

Re: Mindbelt Weirdness

That's weird. Do you use an antivirus software? If so, it sounds like Mindbelt is being falsely accused as a virus, probably because it modifies files (i.e. the level files). Your antivirus software might have a whitelist that lets you add exceptions (I know Microsoft Security Essentials does, under...

Re: Keen Awards 2022: Winners

Yeah, it would be nice to have the Keen Awards happen this year, preferably sooner rather than later (Keen Day is less than a month away). I sent Grandy02 a PM a while ago, but he appears to have gone inactive. Perhaps an admin or mod could do it? (I considered doing it, but I'm not sure if I really...

Re: Stupid References are stupid

Yeah, one of my first thoughts about that image is that it's AI-generated (with the logos and rating pasted in manually). That outfit just seems too weird to me. Also, while taking a cartoony series and making it gritty and "mature" has been done before (e.g. Bomberman: Act Zero ), I don't...

Re: Level Viewer for KEEN VORTICONS and GALAXY (and more...)

I've been getting the missing sprites layer problem with Was I No Net , even with the latest version of GalaxyView. Here's the log file that got generated last time I opened up the mod's files: GAMEMAPS file is "C:\KeenMods\l.darkdave1985.was_i_no_net.k4.2018-08-06\GAMEMAPS.CK4" GAMEMAPS h...

Re: Foray in the Forest

Some quick things I want to say about another ending I achieved (highlight to read): I beat the game on Normal and collected all 1,000,000 points! The janitors didn't seem to notice that Keen fiddled with the cloning switches and instead thanked him for cleaning the planet by picking up all the poin...

Yeah, I've been getting that error you posted, Benvolio, and the PCKF was loading very slowly for me yesterday. Thanks for fixing the problem, Fleexy! I really appreciate your service! :) I thought that maybe PCKF was being flooded by numerous AI scraper bots, but that turns out to be not the case i...
