Keen 3 in Galaxy style

[Kayburt]

I've seen and tried out Dr. Colussus' great remakes of "Marooned on Mars" and "Earth Explodes". However a remake of the third game is not going to be created. I'm not skilled at modding and I'm no way a skilled artist, but I was able to put together a map that puts quite a fews things in 3D perspective. Can you spot the Easter Egg in the level?

Sorry that there aren't any enemies in the picture, but I don't have the skills to draw them Galaxy style. The Stranded Fish was based on a killer fish from Monster Bash.

OK That's actually looking really cool. Here's the Keen 3 map for comparison.

Great job, this looks really cool and succeeds at what it tries to do. I especially like the stairways.

When I did the stairs, I lined each step three pixels apart. Took several minutes to calculate the bottom step from the top one. If the stairs were connected on-screen, the pattern would be perfect. It truly gives the perfect angle.

Here a few more screenshots to whet your appetite on what the mod remake would look like.

wow these look awsome! I wish this mod existed right now so I could play it.

[Roobar]

I'm not entirely sure, but he said he's not skilled at modding, so what we're seeing here is photoshop or something, illustrating what Keen 3 would look like and not an upcoming mod.

But if this is a mod, then it already looks really advanced.

Dang, this is looking pretty sweet. I'd play it.

I love what I see

With the Easter holidays here, I've had time to come up with a couple of more exciting screenshots:


Level 8 - Hal's Kitchen


Level 14 - Cape Canavorta

The first screenshot is supposed to be Hal's Kitchen, but I couldn't exactly replicate the complicated kitchen maze into an isometric platform layout, so I tried something different. There's also an obvious Easter Egg in it.

Is this a reference to Duke 2?

I love the city backdrop

The floating messenger indeed is a reference to Duke Nukem II.

I love the city backdrop

The city backdrop is a recolored version of the one in the third episode of "Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure".
