That's quite impressive.

It takes less effort to search the net for something than it does to complain about it; however, I agree... these people should really link to stuff...

I'm still impressed how often Keen gets referenced. I mean it's a small fan community, the game is ages old and almost noone knows it anymore. Still you find references here and there, and fan stuff. Way more than for any other PC platformer of the dos era I think.

Perhaps Keen could hit mainstream if someone were to think up a good internet meme of it. Likely how MLP and other things made a huge comeback.

Agreed, Mortimer should be the meme.

Does exposure really lead to more players? I mean, how many Keeners are there in Adelaide in the aftermath of the Keen/Dogcow war? All I'm aware of is a garghouse band called Keen Must Die, and I'm not sure if that came before or after.
