Keen 3 Gold Edition

Post by szemi »

Hello there! As you may know, I've already made Keen 1 and 2 Gold Editions. Well, I'm going to work on Keen 3 Gold as well soon with +16 newer levels and fixed stuff if everything goes good.

Would like to hear your thoughts.
Yeah, piece of cake!

How do you plan on adding so many levels? Sounds more like a level pack mod instead of just fixing the existing issues. If you've made 16 levels, just release it as a stand alone level pack that includes only the new levels.

To be fair, with Keen 3 specifically, making entirely new levels *is* fixing issues. :p

We already have something kinda similar to what you're thinking of...

Exactly what leapt to my mind, too. That and the Mr. Black Pack, which I love so god damn much that it's basically become canonical Keen 3 in my mind. Even better that I first listened to The Wall, start to finish, all while playing it so the two are forever intertwined in the warmest parts of my heart. (Because nothing says heartwarming like The Wall amirite)

That said, we can never have too many reimagined Keen 3s, probably the episode outside of Dreams most demanding of a remaster. I say go for it if you want to.

Keen3 terrain is also fairly ugly looking, a talented pixel artist could definitely improve on them.

Eyy, people still remember that level pack I made 10 years ago! Good to know the work I put into it was never forgotten after all.

I'd say go for it! It's always fascinating seeing how others would "fix" Keen 3. It's not often you see others try to attempt it, but that's also coming from someone who barely frequents this forum. Best of luck either way!
