LEGO KEEN
From the maker of Shadowlands: The Animated Series...
comes the long-awaited mod for Commander Keen 1...
LEGO KEEN IS HERE.
Some of you recall me posting little tidbits about this mod a few months ago here, and if you've been visiting the Modding forums, there's been a lot of talk about it. Well, now it's here, and available for download. Let me know what you think!

Re: LEGO KEEN
I'm usually not a fan of mods, but this is just too awesome.
I know who I'm nominating for "Best Mod" this year! 
Somebody make a Lego Keen smilie in honour of this mod!!!

The "red turtle" is actually supposed to be the Screenhog logo. Just a little bit of self-promotion...
Glad you all are enjoying the game!

Re: replyto lego keen
AWESOME!
edit: uh.. Ilsoap? correct me if I'm wrong here, but when keen can walk through stuff with only moderate resistance, and can walk well outside of the map area, there's something wrong with my game. I didn't use god mode, but I can walk almost freely around the map area (there's some resistance, but that dissapears if I move around a bit). Also, I apparently fall through many of the blocks. Did I run the wrong file or something? (I ran Keen1.exe)

I got stuck at the complex with the pogo in it for a while. Those vanishing blocks are hard on my eyes.

Re: replyto lego keen
Why everyone posts mod stuff to Unofficial Keen Games, I think it should be better in Other Keen Stuff..

Re: replyto lego keen

Re: replyto lego keen
I don't think they're unofficial games, because they are mods (=modifications). That means that stuff is changed and it uses the original game's engine, and isn't totally new one. Mod is replacement, not made from scratch. Well, seems that they get more replies in this forum category (U K Games)..

I have two possible bugs to report.
1 - Although the order screen is not accessible from the menu it will still eventually be rotated on the screen by the game.
2 - In the maze level along the bottom left passage Keen dies while walking over an ordinary green tile. This is just to the left of the lego man there.

Re: 01
Forgot about the menu rotation thing. I thought I could get away with not putting anything there. As for the second bug, that Lego man's head is a "kill" tile, something I missed when I was doing the TileInfo thing.
I'll fix both of these in version 1.1. If anyone else notices anything else that should be fixed, please let me know.

No, I don't count mods as games, or fan games. They're like big big patches.

Re: lol
In the key maze level, I can pass some of the red keys by jumping, hitting the top of the level and suddenly be inside a red block.
Also, anyone else found the secret level? Otherwise, I claim FIRST FIND!

That's a Keen1 bug that no one knows how to fix, I even ran into it myself, you'll have to restore an older game and hope it works the next time. It's somewhere on the right side of the map, maybe the top most level.

Gems
The four gems are in Complex 1, Complex 2, Complex 3, and Matik Castles. If you've passed all four of those levels, then the key bug that Joseph talked about happened to you. I had fixed that as best as I knew how, and thought I had gotten rid of the problem. Looks like I didn't. (Keen mods are notorious for having that problem... it seems to be something hard-coded in the original game).
I've never experienced the red key bug. I'll look it up, but I have no idea why that would be possible.

Argh, that bug is so annoying! I don't mean in this, I mean in general.
Well, we need just to learn live with it.

Re: Gems
I just played this mod and I must say it's very well done. Now I'm hoping to find the pogo sometime...
Ilsoap, can we feature it on CC314?

Go ahead, chogall. But use this version. It fixes a few minor bugs, most notably the Lego man's killer head (in the maze level).

How long did it take you to make that block cannon, Ilsoap? That thing looks AWESOME!

It ain't Pachelbel's Cannon...
Not too long, really. I started with a circle for the base, diagonal lines for the barrel of the cannon, and drew from there. It's the shading of it that makes it interesting... if it was all flat colors (no shadows), the cannon wouldn't look as nice.
Incidentally, if anyone's planning on making fan levels with my mod, I drew out the cannons for the up and down shooting sprites as well. I just didn't use them in the mod.
