Aliens vs Keen - did I miss something?

Post by VikingBoyBilly »

I seem to have completed all the levels (including the secret one). The game didn't end. I don't know where to go. Is there some other level I don't know about? Or is something telling me that keen meets his cruel end on an exploding planet? :dead2

I kinda get the feeling this subject has been talked about before... i think

I think it has. It's a bug... you can't always win. I don't think I've ever seen the ending.

It looks like Levellord already made provisions for this problem. At least in the version available from keeniverse.net. Run error.bat and you only need to finish one level in order to finish the game. If you've already finished all the levels, you'll have to start a new game and pass one level, forfeiting your score (unless it checks for level completion status upon entering the map, but I doubt it).

huh? I ran error.bat and beating the last level still didn't do anything.
I noticed the aliens have yellow blood and there are skulls with three eye-holes lying around. Is it possibly a reference to marathon? 8)

Run error.bat start a new game, beat the first level and you'll see the ending.

I always thought the yellow blood was because of their acid blood in the movies.

You'd think she could have just fixed the bug or something. *Sigh*

What's marathon? :confused
