Version 1.6

Post by gerstrong »

Hello,

Jumping to the next version and having concluded the support of the whole trilogy I thought it is time to create another poll because honestly I don't know what to do next. So I want you to give me ideas and get an idea of what you think it needs to be done.

About Keen Dreams. Should it really be supported how high is the demand? It was my least favorite I have to say, so not sure. Should we support it next? This will also be more work, because we need another menu and the format is not identical to galaxy though similar as it served as base for them. CG has a mouse driven framework so the menu can be done nevertheless.

Here we go!

I guess tweaking the thing to be more honest to the original should always be on our radar.
Apart from that you know I like vorticons and the mods there, and I like testing those too.

Aren't those already working? I remember to have played those on CG. Nice mods, btw.

Anyway, let's see what the votes will tell me to do next...

Do everything, all at once.
What you really need, not what you think you ought to want.

Yeah, right, how about voting or even better learn to program? ;-)

I DO program, and in my experience, everything all at once is what people want.

The comment was referred to myself, sorry, didn't mean to get close to you. My code is far from being good (I know that) and I have not voted here, which I could do, but really, I want you the fans let it do. My mission with Keen Galaxy is pretty much complete now I want to enhance CG to something nice.

Hmm, isn't Netkeen good enough? As I see it is very decent. Should we do something different in CG in case that the votes would decide netplay?

I'd prefer every Keen game to be fully supported so Keen Dreams I guess?

strangely enough I would like multiplayer support for galaxy. So I can do galaxy and galaxy mods with friends.

Well I think it would be neat to play Keen in co-op mode as well. :disguised
