Hi guys
I'd like to apologize for canceling the project like that, and making it so ambiguous and unexpected. I also want to say how much I deeply appreciate everyone's concern and desire for the project to come back.
I canceled for a number of reasons, though none of them involved id software. The biggest reason is I felt bad for not releasing the demo right away and just dragging on with the gameplay demo, and as such I felt that I probably lost respect from the community.
Not too long after I said I canceled the project I didn't feel right about it, like it was something I didn't truly want to do, especially after I saw everyone's response. So I am lifting the cancellation, the game will be on a hiatus but it's not going to canceled.
My apologies and thanks,
Lava89

If anything, your relatively consistent work on this project, and willingness to listen to your audience's requests, is proving you a most respectable Keener/developer. Not that respect is the point here any more than simply creating something you yourself can enjoy, but as far as I can see you're not doing anything to make us dislike you.
Although it would be incredible to see this project evolve into something more complete, we're a patient mob and understand when delays occur. Good luck and hopefully you find the time to make it happen.

Thanks guys! jonnyspeight and JM2008...
jonnyspeight: It's ok man! I'm always open to suggestions. I have put in alot of sound effects and they will be in the official demo
As for music...I haven't decided what I'll do, I could always not have any music and be true to the original games, have music from Keen Dreams, 4, 5 or 6, I could have remixes of that music, or lastly I could have something completely new.

When I first heard about CK in 3D from my friend, I was excited and now I am much more! This project looks very good, although is just in the beginning.
When I and my comrades were younger, we wished to make an 3D Keen in engine like in the RPG "in sight of second person". But we couldn't (and cannot) programme :D:D.
I would be great, when more people will join to this project and make an official-looking-like game. I thought that you cannot break the copyright when the game stay freeware (as the other Keen fangames).
P.S. Don't beat me, but try to make better the AI of the creatures, I want to amuse in racking Yorps in 3D!!
P.S.S. To music: If I can advise, the remix or something new is maybe better, because you make an Episode 1 looking like game and it hadn't any music. In my opinion, the music from 4-6 is therefore unfit for this

WHAT THE!!! There's music in Keen Dreams??? didn't know that one. it might be cool to have something completely new, and maybe one or two remixes of other keen music

there is no music in keen dreams yes it was made but they removed it because soft disk wanted it to fit on a 360 KB 5" floppy iircjonnyspeight wrote:WHAT THE!!!
