keen dream ported
as some of you may know, keen dreams is now ported. i would like to give keys to everyone here that votes for it, but i think that would be unfair to the people that contributed. anyone think that?

Re: keen dream ported
Do you mean Steam keys? That's a nice gesture, but would Valve even allow that? Every key could be considered a potential lost sale. Taking it to the extreme, if you could just give everyone a key you'd basically have a game hosted for free on Steam, and Valve is in the business to earn money.dopefishing wrote:i would like to give keys to everyone here that votes for it,
GTA and GTA2 are freeware games hosted on Steam, but you can only add those to your library by buying the GTA bundle. Hmmm, actually I just checked, and it doesn't seem like Steam is hosting them anymore, which only strengthens my point.

Valve do allow that, though as Keen Dreams is not yet on Steam, the point is moot for the moment.That's a nice gesture, but would Valve even allow that?
I'm not sure what happened to the windows build: it certainly was available. PM/email me (david@ingeniumdigital.com) if you still can't get it. (It might take me a little while to answer over the next week or so, though).
Basically, the ported versions (windows/linux) have the music menu replaced with a graphics menu, with EGA/CGA toggle, fullscreen/windowed and aspect ratio options. Apart from a couple of other minor internal differences, the game should play exactly the same as the DOS version.
