Public Commander Keen Forum

With GZDoom and good people at hand, anything is possible

Regarding the 100 drops: In this case it‘s your hitpoints, we changed that dynamic a bit.

I'm hyped by your images. this is so fascinating. the Keeniverse is getting 3D for real. awesome!


I try to chip in as much as I can. here's one west facing Arachnut graphic

Yes, please, please! I would LOVE to see this as a standalone game!

Glad that you like it The Arachnut west sprites are brilliant man, this is utterly perfect and could come directly from id software.

Today I finished the main portion of the 3rd Keen map (the screenshots you saw from the Pyramid). As of now, we only need the remaining sprites to prepare the code and finish the maps - so it's up to you now mostly No need to feel stressed! We still have a lot of work to do and continue with the main game but it's good to see this special gem almost finished with your help!

Well, chances are not that bad now that we have almost all the assets and code done. Let's see how these 3 secret levels are received by the community

I think for standalone game we need to go 8-directional.
Big eork, I know, but as community art effort...

Damn these new frames are gorgeous... What a Keen job Nisaba!

What's damn impressive about the sprites: Thy look totally official

Looks absolutely incredible, great work the sprites look like the real deal, and the effects like the lighting look excellent!

Hey Nisaba, any progress on the remaining sprites?

thanks for the poke
I'm afraid I need deadlines in order to get creative...


which sprite is up next? what's needed the most? pls gimme a hierarchy


ps.:
there are also other very talented people around here. for e.g. @Zilem is a phenomenal sprite pixel artist. she's much better than I could ever be. just saying...

I don't think there is a hierarchy, as levels are already finished. So every sprite is missing at the same priority.
From testing the levels - I could notice at least the Berkeloid missing quite some frames.

Definitely make up a fake hierarchy according to your personal favorites and most visually appealing.
Super cool project!

Guys, if this gets funded, it might help you fill the missing gaps. You'll need to add the 4 main directions and the software would fill the rest 4 or more diagonal directions. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/53 ... -alchemist
