As an update this patch makes Yorps stunnable by jumping or pogoing on them. Thank you very much, it works fine. Sometimes the yorp got stuck on slopes. But I fixed that. I only had to add one additional action with a falling behaviour. actually you need to take a look inside your mymod.PAT file (v...

Oh. Would you like an expanded messages patch? It'd be nice to get them all. Yes, that would be nice :) And thank you for the Yorp patch. I will try it out. Something else I noticed: It's instantly freezing when being in the ice castle and being hit by the ice cannons :( And the tile issues with th...

You can't patch in some more fuse messages? No. :( Also, might want to fiddle with the block's foreground, it looks odd when Keen walks on it, he should be in front of it: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3940020/ck5patch_021.png Sometimes this bug occures. In the new update I tried something ou...

Also, i found some Bugs: Which causes the Game to Freeze, when a "Tank robot" lazer shot hits a "Butler Robot" http://picturechaos.dk/Zilem/Random_Stuff/Keen_MoM_Bug1.png fixed. Btw: Did you implement Commander Kylie? Cool idea :) And noticed that keen's idle frames don't have t...

Thanks for bug extermination and the ending patch. You found a clever way to win this game. Making a statusbox part thing would require the four parts levels to be consecutive (Say levels 3,4,5 and 6 or whatever.) Dunno if you want to go to the trouble of rearranging 'em. The images would be nice bu...

hey doc, please edit your opening post in this thread and insert the updated version over there. this might be easier to keep track of updates! Did this. But forgot to save the edit :o and... I found some tiny little things (most of them map tileinfos). not sure if worth noting. gonna write you a p...

...while talking about patches: what about adding some flamy sounds to the upper top Pogo-Shrine spot (and to all the other fireplace of course)? besides that, I think a small tileinfo mistake has slipped in. spoiler screenshot I tried this and it worked. I made an invisible harmless enemy that jus...

This looks really cool. Hope to see this game soon. There are Galaxy-style graphics for most of the Vorticon creatures by Dr.C and Ceilick, as I'm sure you know. Just saying. Not sure if you intent to keep the garg as is. He don't match very well with the rest of the cast. If you want you can of cou...

Was this to put to use the artwork you made for Dr. Colossus: The Temple of Cydonia? Yes. Especially the mars surface and environment tiles are altered artwork from my last mod. Here is some good worldmap music by the hackercat: https://pckf.rigeltechnical.com/viewtopic.php?p=40807&highlight=#4...

At first: Thanks for your positive feedback. Maybe Keen 2 and 3 should be revised as well in the galaxy engine. I also thought about that. But there are much more difficulties. Especially in Keen 2. - Light switches -> Colour change -> Vorticon Elite Jumping - Red robots that can variable climb wall...

I just finished the Beta Version of my new mod: "Marooned on Mars". http://richard-balluff.de/MoMGalaxy.png It's a redesign of the first Keen game in Keen5. I'm not a good composer. The music in this mod is a collection of other Apogee games. The Vorticons in the story page and on the titl...

I finally found the time to play this mod. I liked it so much that I finished it within two days. The crature design is cool and the story is very interesting. Beside the excellent porgramming is the music the best part of the game. I also like the depressing atmosphere and environment design. It of...

There a few things to do in my "marooned on mars" mod (sounds, patches, graphic enhancement, ...) but I will release it latest on KeenDay. Maybe sooner.

Keen2.5D

I'm still working on my Keen1 Mod. Emerald City is almost done.

In Game Maker you can make a Platform Game with 3d Objects. If you know how it works it's quite easy.
I have once tried to make a 2.5D Keen Game about 2years ago. The ground is a 3d Object with a EGA texture.
Unfortunatelly I abandoned it.
