  1. Heh. I've still got the version of episode 5 that contains the infamous "pipe swastika" that John Romero put in one of the levels. That crazy, crazy bastard.

    Pipe Swastika?? Where?

    Speaking of which, if you have Red Dwarf series 3 on DVD and play the backwards episode in reverse the closing theme backward it'll sound like "I saw swastikaaaaa...." and so on (dont you just love crazy satanic messages)


  2. I'm sorry but I'm not allowed to do that. I WILL tell you what I AM allowed to say though.

    Cumbernauld is a town in Scotland. Cumbernauld Theatre is a theatre in Cumbernauld. Sm:)e is an upcoming play taking place there. This very same play is also going to be shown in Manchester. The full details of that are currently unknown. And as for what "Elephant Juice" means... think I'm gonna spoil the surprise???


  3. As far as I remember, and this was ten years ago, you have to wait in one of the three pyramids, in the lower levels, on one of those moon shapes in the dirt for a few seconds before a giant foot swoops down from nowhere and takes you to the secret pyramid. I am not sure if the starting pyramid is automatically flagged after that. I think it is the top right one you have to do this in...

    I think it was the pyramid with the moon on it. Get to one of the lower floors and gather all the inchworms together and they'll turn into a big foot. I think you have to use the gem card as well on this bit of the level to get all the worms. If you stand on one of the moons however, Keen will "moon" you.


  4. Bobo is a weegie!

    Run before he chibs us wi his knife or threatens to hit us with his Buckie bottle!

    (Only joking. :D)

    You have nothing to worry about. I've never tasted bucky (Buckfast to all you non-scots) and I dont carry a chib. And niether does Martin.


  5. I'd get John Passfield and Steve Stamatiadis to finish making Gruesome Castle (The sequel to Flight of the Amazon Queen) and maybe some of their other planned games that they couldn't get finished (Stereo Jack for example).

    I'd also buy the rights to Commander Keen and hire Tom Hall, Adrian Carmack, John Romero, John Carmack and anyone else who worked on Keen back in the old days. I'd get them to make "The Universe is Toast" and just leave them to it.

    I'd also buy the rights to Monkey Island™ and give them to Ron Gilbert.


  6. Commander Keen rocked I got all the early ones but only played the shareware/demo versions of the last one or two games.

    I think their was at laest meant to be one more in the series but it was just never gotten round to.

    Check out the complete Keen history site below which explains almost everything you would want to know about the games.

    There are certainly a few spelling errors here and there.

    :dopefish:


  7. You should check out the sequels (yes thats right, this is a trilogy)

    Plan 9 from Underpants also features some more Keen references (Look for the Dopefish in the world map, not to mention some secret messages in the Standard Galactic Alphabet)

    Conquest of Animutopia is the final episode in the Colin Mochrie vs Jesus H. Christ Trilogy. If you pay close attention you might see the Commander Keen Leprechaun from the previous episode.

  8. By the way I dont think it was available for GBA but it was available for the GBColour. It sucks according to those who have played it (I've been trying to find the rom without any success so I cant express my opinion here).

    Keen Dreams sorta reminds me of Red Dwarf. That "Quarantine" episode where Rimmer goes insane. Heres what I'm talking about:

    LISTER: Well we've passed the test, Rimmer. You can let us out.

    RIMMER: I can't let you out.

    LISTER: Why not?

    RIMMER: Because the King of the Potato People won't let me. I begged

    him. I got down on my knees and wept. He wants to keep you here.

    Keep you here for ten years.

    CAT: Could we see him?

    RIMMER: See who?

    CAT: The King.

    RIMMER: Do you have a magic carpet?

    LISTER: Yeah, a little three-seater.

    RIMMER: So, let me get this straight. You want to fly on a magic carpet

    to see the King of the Potato People and plead with him for your

    freedom, and you're telling me you are completely sane?!

    Thats probably the only reason I kept on playing Keen Dreams. To see the King of the potato people. Wouldn't you agree that there's some sort of similarity?


  9. My name as you all know is Bobo Donkey™. I wish I was an actual real life character but alas, you dont get bald, blue faced characters with green noses and colourful clothing in real life so instead, I'll tell you about the human who created me.

    His name is Martin and he lives in a small town in central Scotland. He has led a hard life being brought up in a place full of neds (click here to find out about them). Every day he would get beat up, taunted, called names etc etc, so he had to go to a different high school from all his friends(?). He still leads a fairly saddish life though. And out from the imagination of his mind, he created me. Its tragic, but hey, if it wasnt for his sad life, I would never exist.

    As for me, I am currently being tormented by this guy called Eat (see my comic strip for details).
