Keys of Krodacia
Hello chums,
I'm new here. I recently began replaying the Commander Keen series from Mars to Babysitter, and I of course downloaded the fan made Keen 7, which I'm finding to be a grand tour of exploration and discovery-- both comprehensive and fresh. In the former Commander Keen forum, a man named Brian whose avatar there was "Ceilick, if memory serves me correctly, posted Keen 7 and was himself its creator. Ive been trying to get ahold of him these last few days as I want to contribute artwork, general concepts, and story material to his proposed Keen 8, and a possible Keen 9 to top off his unofficial "...Toast" trilogy. I'm a creative writing undergrad at SIUC, and although most of my colleagues would find lending my time toward such a trivial seeming project to be silly and stupid, I do not. I love Keen, and I've always maintained that it doubled my imagination. Please help me get ahold of this prolific Keen modder. Otherwise, I'd gladly lend my sketches and writing to someone willing to create a Universe is Toast trilogy anew, or even just 8 and 9. Especially if Ceilick is married and gone, dead in Iraq, or what have you.
I'd consult with anybody who has technical expertise, but ive none myself. However, ive a good blend of humor and weirdness in me, and I'd gladly offer what I've got to the right person... or Ceilick.

Hi, glad you liked my mod and that it's inspired some keenish work and ideas from yourself.
As it is, my versions of keen 8 and 9 probably won't reach finality, mostly due to time constraints and lack of will (though i'll admit, every now and again I find myself opening the tilesheet to doodle a bit. I even had a dream the other day that Mortimer's ultimate plan involves id never having made TUIT )
I'm not really short on ideas, its just a problem of actually making them. That said, if you've got something specific, feel free to send it to me or contact me via msn messenger (this goes for anyone else interested in contacting me) at brianclav[at]family[dot]net. Can't say i'll actually use any of your ideas, but if I don't I'll let you know so you can share them with the rest of the keen community.

Thanks, Brian. This is neat.

Maybe Ceilick thinks "The Dude" is a better name! Maybe that is now going to be the name of his next project:CK Guy wrote:I think Ceilick's use of 'the dude' is adding to the confusion.
Keen 8- The Universe is Toast (Unofficial): The Dude
Apparently when Keen gets launched into space and lands on that abandoned planet. There is only one form of life. They call him, "The Dude!"
