The Great Keen 6 Anomaly Hunt

Post by GARGapplesauce »

Im continuing to experiment with Keen 6, attempting to find undocumented bugs and glitches, as well as uncovering the game's secrets.

Today I've found another glitch that I have not yet seen documented,EDIT* yet have just been told otherwise, the Midair Impossible Bullet Trick.

This glitch allows you to jump or pogo off of a bullet you fire in midair. It essentially grants you a double jump, making it potentially useful, though its certainly difficult to reproduce.

As I find new bugs I'll be posting them in a Youtube Playlist.

If you're using CosmicPanda or cannot access the playlist for any other reason, the video documenting this bug can be found here.

If anybody else finds glitches that you'd like to show, please post them here, I'd rather this not be a topic wasted only on the glitches I can manage to find. I'll update this whenever i can find something during my hunt.
_________________________
*EDIT: Just looked up the video and found it. For anybody who has not yet seen the speedrun (and as a result, the glitch), its also now documented here.

Don't waste your youth like I did, Garg... Go pick up skateboarding or something.

Pfft. Sorry. I'm just chuckling over the irony of that sentance. :p

But garg, seriously, nobody gives a fucl about obscure keen 6 bugs and if you ever find any, it should be by accident, not by actively looking for them. Go work on SBSIES instead, please.

Oh all right, all right, I already see where this is going.

Back to SBSIES then.

Admins, arm your rocket launchers. Or just lock it. EDIT: Don't lock it, though you may still need your rocket launchers.


EDIT: Bear in mind that I wasn't planning on making this a full time job or anything. Just if i ever found anything interesting, I'd update it. We should just go by the "if you don't care, then don't say anything" rule of thumb I think.

If you do care, just check the playlist occasionally.

EDIT: Okay well I'll continue to add things if I find them then...

People here generally are interested to hear about obscure bugs in the Keen games, especially if there's a chance they've gone undiscovered these 21 long years. And besides, you're the guy who used to post all those "u guyz Garfield is teh Keen reference coz the colors are all like his helmet" threads so I wouldn't go saying what people do and don't give a fucl about. :P

Perhaps some of us prefer to believe that our favorite games are flawless. Not sure why else this topic would be offensive.
