Shadow Keen 2
LL: Its done!

Fleex: You didn't tell us? How are we supposed to sabotage it if you don't tell us?

LL: Riiiight. Well I know you've been looking forward to it-

Spleen: No we haven't.

LL: Okay, you're aware of its inevitable appearence.

KeenRush: *ahem*

LL Alright, you've dreaded its appearance!

Fleex: Exactly.


Anyways,its here.

After a weeks worth of late nights and sleeping through maths Shadow Keen 2 is complete. [When I started I used an old tileset and some old levels, so that speeded things up.]

Featuring craptacular graphics and three dificulty settings, as well as a guide to beating all the levels. [So if you can't do something its your fault.]

I really have to thank Captain Keen for beta testing, he found 97 errors, including 23 that stop entire levels being played. Thanks also to KeenRush and his amazing score editor.

If no one gets whats going on- too bad!

Re: Shadow Keen 2
I don't even remember if I've played Shadow Keen 1 yet. :|

The name rings a bell, but mod was probably so bad that I don't remember it! :lol

...and it doesn't look like we're gonna have much trouble finding another 97 errors...

I also can't remember a Shadow Keen 1.
About this mod:
It's overal not bad but the ugly sprite of the main character ruins it some other graphics are average some are good. The game has a to busy look. 6/10.

Re: Shadow Keen 2
BTW; an error in my freewebs account means some level in the mod may not work, if it was downloaded before 6pm on the 18th. Problem is fixed now.

re: arresting
Not gonna arrest anybody, but I'll definitely stick to my word: if it's got the Keen2.exe file in it, I won't download it. If you'd be kind enough to release a .zip without the exe in there, I may get to play it... :-)

I don't know how you manage to build such large levels and cram in such a gargantuan quantity of graphics into this game. Though, I noticed many graphics are ripped. Though I think this was the case in the first Shadow Keen. This game has many of the same problems as its predecessor, in fact. Again, it's sometimes difficult to differenciate tiles. Having your character fall through a pit they couldn't see isn't very fair. This game doesn't seem to be quite as unforgiving as the first game, though. I'll give you that. Next time, I'd like to see your own graphics as well as some more forgiving levels. This is pretty much a mod on steroids. I kinda liked the story though. Having Xky and Durdin as scientists and the whole thing with the Patchtron pretty much got the job done. Good job.

I give this mod a score of 1.3/2 :)

Y'know what? I think I should make a site for Keen Mod reviews.

Who rates games out of 2?

So I was climbing Mount Vesuivius, right? And then I slipped and I'm free-falling. So then I think: dude, haven't you been smoking peyodi for like 6 days now? Couldn't some of this be in your head? And it turns out: IT WAS! I've never even been to Mount Vesuvius! -- Hansel

D'oh! Of course! the executable has been executed: not that it matters, my mod will incinerate under the glare of Xky's incredible graphics.

re: ShadowKeen2
I can't seem to download the file--it keeps giving me some error about my security settings. Any chance someone could email me the no-executable version? XkyRauh2001@hotmail.com? Thanks.

[Edit: still no email in my box, and I still can't download the file. Gives me a popup saying that my security settings won't allow it. Help please? I'd love to play ShadowKeen2... but I don't want to download a Keen2.exe...]
