Off topic: What if the end of this was the last we had ever heard of Commander Keen? What if "Stay tuned for Goodbye Galaxy" turned out the way "Stay tuned for the Universe is Toast" did? I seriously wonder if this community would even exist."Uh, Mom, what are we having for supper tonight?" Billy asked
"Oh, we're having liver, dear."
"I HATE liver! I don't have to eat liver. I saved the earth!"
THE END
(Possibly continued in... "Commander Keen Meets the Meats")
Commander Keen will definately return in....
"Goodbye, Galaxy!"
Watch for it!
Grimson: if this does become a mod, I highly suggest the story be built solely off Keen Dreams and exclude any mentioning of Keen 4. The best approach, in my opinion, is to essentially do a "keen dreams 2" in which some meat equivalent of Boobus Tuber (perhaps from a rival meat kingdom like "Beefburgia" or something punny) uses the undestroyed dream machine, like you mentioned, for their own evil ends (or the same purpose of enslaving children like vegetables did).
In any case, if some sort of mod project gets picked up for this, I'll gladly contribute graphically.
