General Commentary and Game Overview
I wish someone would make a new Commander Keen game.
 
Pros + Clickteam graphics. I like Clickteam graphics.
+ It lives up to what it was supposed to be, I guess
 
Cons - It's like 3 minutes long and barely needs effort to finish
 
Impressions
Gameplay
3 / 10
You walk around, running into guys to kill them. In one level, you drive instead. There's hardly any challenge, and it's over in like 3 minutes.

A good emulation of a 2005 game, basically.
 
Graphics
6 / 10
A jumble of random sprites and default Clickteam graphics assets. Luckily, I happen to like default Clickteam graphics assets.
 
Sound
7 / 10
Acceptable midis and sound effects.
 
Final Words
5 / 10
It was made for an early 2000's themed jam, and it sure feels that way.

Sweet! Thanks for the review! I got really excited when I saw this in the latest update!

Yeah, I think it could've been a lot better, while still having that classic fangame feel. At first it was only meant to be a simple experiment rather than a game; I was going to make something else for your game jam. However, it seemed like there was a possibility I may be unavailable for the next day or so, and with not much time left, I took my experiment and tried to turn it into a beatable game. Turns out that wasn't necessary, though, because I happened to still have Internet access those following days. Oh well.

I had a lot of fun making this game, though. I'm glad you hosted that old fangame-themed jam; that was so much fun! I'd love to make another game, a much better one, with TGF, whether for another jam or not!

And yes, I'd love a good new Commander Keen game! If only series creator Tom Hall could get the rights to make one... At least the Keen mods and fangames fill in that niche nicely for now.

I HAVE been considering hosting another jam. It has somehow been like 3 years since the last one, after all.
