Save the galaxy, kill yourself...
SPOILERS AHEAD for last level of Keen 5!
It’s possible to kill yourself while destroying the Quantum Explosion Dynamo, and still complete the game! Since the game doesn’t register Keen’s dying until he goes off the screen, if he gets hit by shrapnel from the exploding mine, the level will finish before the game realises that he’s actually dead! It's really weird!

Well you couldn't keep coming back and doing a level over if you kept dying. What really happens is Keen limps off to find a first aid kit.

That's happened 90% of the time I've beaten the game. The game ending sequence trigger hits before Keen's dead animation goes off the screen. Funny.
Kind of like that glitch in Keen6 where Molly goes through all of the doors, so you can beat the game without getting any keys in the last level... lol

Yes that's the way I finished the game. And all of us here have already finished Keen 5 so no need for spoilers.

I know. It's very interesting fact.

forgotten till now, and it was so unfair
I felt sort of cheated, since the first time I beat the game that happened. Is it an official win if you die and what about winning without dying the first time you play a game? I swear -- that bug drove me crazy!

Die? Who said anything about dying? I didn't see Keen keel over, just jump around the screen. (As you would if some debris hit you in the stomach.)

The part that really drives me crazy is when I go through all the effort to complete the games, and in the end all I get is this ending sequence, a sense of completion and then the sudden realisation that it was all an illusion anyway, and that I'm now left with the real world to contend with. Is there a fix for this? Perhaps version 1.5?
I'm now auctioning the remaining few parts of my mind. Any bids?

I wish it would be the real world for me.. Well, I'm afraid there's nothing to fix that, too bad Spleen.

What REALLY bugs me about the end of Keen5 is that last screen with a  picture, with a similar one in Keen6. These two screens have driven us all to the brink of insanity......

You'd rather die most times you 'finnish' the game?

It's all in the mind, I myself have constructed a fantasy world of deception that I never leave. With a little practice you can turn faliure into 'episode two'

No, I'd rather not die at all, and especially not the first time I play the game.
