A Call for Missing Mods, Levelpacks, Fangames

Post by Flaose »

Hey all. Over the past two years I've slowly (slowly) been localizing all of the downloads of Keen mods, levelpacks, and fangames that are listed on the KeenWiki, as well as (I think) adding anything missing that was available from Beyond the Pogo and Zap/Zot/Net.

This is where YOU come in. I need your help adding anything that is missing from the lists, especially when it comes to new mods and fangames, and anything that was released by the German Keeners. Also, if you happen to have any of the lost downloads, it would be fantastic if you could provide a download!

LOST DOWNLOADS
  • Keen's Pepsi Craving (mod demo by Najawa)
    Kuliwil's LEVEL02.CK1
    The Yellow Submarine (level by Caribbean Blue)
The last entry is most likely lost forever, but the first two should definitely still be around on someone' hard drive. Thanks for any help you can provide!

I definitely played the Pepsi one, but I've dug through my files and can't find it (which is weird considering I don't usually delete mods). If it turns up I'll let you know. Hopefully someone else still has a copy of it.

I don't know if this is the Yellow Submarine map, but...does anybody remember a levelpack/limited mod out there that was for Keen 1, but made the sky blue, replaced the pat-pats with the piranha plants from Mario, replaced the pogo sign with one that said "Here is a f*cking pogo", and perhaps some other changes I can't remember? I haven't seen it in years and years and don't even know if it was ever on Beyond the Pogo or not.

The level02 thing wouldn't be a 2-level levelpack would it? If so it's here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3940020/kuliwil.zip


It would help to know what episode these mods and such were for; my folders are too large to navigate easily. (As well as any old broken downloads since they may have renamed the folder oddly.)

That's it! They were originally released seperately but you having put them together is just so convenient!

They are both for Keen 1, both only one level. The Yellow Submarine is a new level from about a decade ago, and the Pepsi mod is about a year-and-a-half old and was released/discussed here: http://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?t=1534

I *think* I have the yellow submarine level at home, I'll check when I get there. Hopefully I'm not mistaken.

Haha, wow, I had forgotten I made a level.

I recall making two actually - one as a hardly-finished standalone thing for Vorticons and another for a community K7/8/whatevs levelpack. I'll boot this one up later to see which it was, but I honestly don't care if it gets archived or not. I didn't even know anyone was taking notes on what put out!

Rats no. The craving mod was on my lost backup drive so I don't have it anymore.

Can we contact the original authors?

I've sent them e-mails to their last known addresses. I don't expect a response from Caribbean Blue, but maybe (hopefully) najawa will respond.

Maybe posting in the KeenModding topic for the Pepsi mod would be a good idea. There's always a chance najawa might see that, whereas with just an email and this topic he might not see it.
