I hate you.

I'm not sure if it's because level 1 is so hard or that I just tried (literally) 60 times without beating it.

How the garg do you get that purple key?

I got through level01 one after a few tries when I finally figured out what the keys an the doors are.
Nice video of level02, makes me want to complete it too.

We should get a inlevel save option in to CG and get it running there.

its hard to make interesting levelpacks for keen4. the amount of usable creatures to place anywhere in the level without making them too hard is limited, and some other features keen 5 and 6 have make them much more suitable for creating a levelpack with variation in it.

Since some people are still stuck on lvl1, here's a video of me playing it:

Level 1

Hope it helps!

ROFL.

I have a half hour video of me going over the top of that yellow bit at the start, then back to the right, over and down into the bit with the door, over and over without realising that I could just jump down the gap and jump to the right to get the key. Even though several times my manoeuvring caused me to leap to the right into the spikes several times.

And curse that brown platform! Now I can beat it, in theory. I'll have another go tomorrow or something.

Nice mod Fleexy I probably had an advantage on the 1st lvl inspite that I beta tested 1/2 of it! I found the secret lvl easily

Now I think I got what's so interesting in those hard mods, but... I still don't have the nerves to beat the levels.

I finally beat the first level without using cheats after many game overs. I'm now stuck on the second level, and those ice cube shooters are really giving me trouble. Some of those jumps look nearly impossible.

To save space, I deleted the other videos and put Level 1-4 and my mom's feeble attempt in one ZIP.

:lol

ps:keen4 is the only (non-dreams) game were no levelpacks are made of.... yet.
Really? I made one, when I was starting out, to test ideas. It's lurking around somewhere if I haven't deleted it.
What you really need, not what you think you ought to want.

If you still have them, it would be nice if you could post them here. Keen4 is my favourite by FAR

Im currently working on some keen4 levels again(say again.. after… 6? years) and i havent seen any levels for original keen4 other than the guy who once made a BWB-megarocket replacement level, and the few i made a very long time ago.[/b]

Awesome to have you back -- hehe, for like three years or more there was somebody who kept asking every six months or so is there any news on candyjunk's Keen 4 level pack. :lol Would be great to see it completed, or other new levels. And you're right, I can't remember seeing too many Keen 4 levels around...
