Keen DS

I just found this photo on the net

Do you guys think its a fake? And if not what progam is the guy using?

Very strange is the Keen 4 menu combined with Keen 1.

Nothing official for sure. It's likely a real photo. Probably the Keen 1-3 clone ported and a custom menu made for it.

lol the guy in the photo looks all weird with that stare.

That looks neat tho. I have no idea how ports/clones work on these hand-held devices.

The DS has a port of Clone Keen, I forget where to download it though.

Well, if it's a port of the old Clone Keen, then I imagine it's possible to port the newer Clone Keen to the DS? That'd be awesome!

That's what I thought as well.

yea but people need to be more interested in this kind of thing. does the inventor of clonekeen have plans of including keen 4 5 and 6 later on? because i think clone keen for the DS works very nicely but would like to see the other keens included in clonekeen for the PC and a new port for the DS.

The "creator" is gerstrong now, a member of this board. There are plans to implement Keen Galaxy, but it will take a lot of time to realize it as far as I can see. But you are always welcome to help at finding bugs and giving feedback on the current version of CloneKeen (which is now CloneKeenPlus)

Yep, that's right.

It would be nice to port CKP for Nintendo DS, but I think it will be very difficult. I'm not even sure, if you can use SDL for DS. Older versiones of CloneKeen didn't use SDL.

gerstrong I'm pretty sure the DS has SDL, ScummVM uses SDL and you can build the DS port from their svn checkout.

That would ease a lot of things!
