Bump! I have played and enjoyed nearly everything iD released after the Keen era - Doom (it was love at first sight), Quake (the first one is still my favorite), and Wolfenstein (especially the classics). I grew up with Apogee's games and by now I have accumulated a pretty large collection of them, ...
I have found from personal experience that gaming can help a lot in this case. Anything that can distract you and keep your thoughts away from harming yourself can help. You just have to find what it is (going for a walk, watching a movie, music, playing Commander Keen, etc.). Yeah, gaming can becom...
This is an impression that I would like to share with you, people... There is a unique design just above the entrance of the first level of Keen 1 - an archway-like structure with an animated iD Software logo within it. I am sure all of you have seen it. At first, I didn't really notice that - it wa...
Here is an idea that came to my mind yesterday - the entire story of KoK is about finding the keys for a certain gate. You can actually see that gate in the intro screen (the one with the text crawl) and it looks really cool. Could it be possible for the gate with seven keyholes to be visible on the...
I had a similar idea with the wetsuit involving lava. Keen would need to get the lava suit in order to swim in Krodacia's lava lake. But the dry suit idea is good too. A lava lake would be cool... but it won't fit very well with the overall visual style of the planet Krodacia. It is dominated by co...
With that said, being new to this forum, I would like to end on an positive note by telling you how much I appreciate the work you've put into the new games. The work and ideas you've put into them are absolutely brilliant and I'm enjoying every minute of them. Thanks! Welcome, welcome! Enjoy the f...
The proposed challenge is good for Goodbye Galaxy and Keen 6, however I have a somewhat different idea for the other games. The challenge is different for each game: Keen 1 - Finish the game (completing as many levels as possible) without firing a single raygun shot. Yes, that means you'll have to d...
The thing with time traveling is that you can go back in time, but everything that will happen from that point will create entirely different universe. I mean it will be a different dimension that is parallel to this one, but completely different. Therefore changing the past won't have any effect o...
World of Keencraft (WoK) - the bestseller MMORPG! * Choose from among 10 exciting hero classes (Pogo Master, Raygunner, Vorticon Assassin, Shikadi Overseer, Krodacian Mystic, and more!). * Explore dozens of weird planets (Mars, Vorticon VI, Fribbulus Xax and more). * Find better and more powerful w...
KoK is pretty good the way it is, at least for me. The only thing I would suggest changing is the Manor/Mansion/Complex/House/etc. levels - they all look pretty much the same - both outside and inside. In terms of the world map, I guess the Manor and the Mansion can have a somewhat "older"...
Awww, man, I discovered this awesome "The Universe is Toast" trilogy about a week ago. It took me about 2 or 3 nights to complete it and I must say that I am VERY impressed :p Now, I'm just waiting for version 2 of Keen 9 to come out, so that I can add the entire trilogy to my "offici...
Not that I am defending illegal distribution of anything, BUT many of these files are pretty rare and hard to find. This archive is a real treasure for anyone who needs Commander Keen stuff.
This is a good thing. It should not be considered illegal in any way
