Keen for Keen Day 2016

Post by Keening_Product »

It has taken me a full 12 months to realise last year was the most Keen-y Keen day to ever grace the strange American calendar – 3.1415.

The moment has passed and things will never be that great again. Happy Keen Day 2016.

Actually, if you're going to round it to those digits, this year is:

3.14159 ≈ 3.1416

In terms of numbers, a very Keen-y Keen Day last year indeed, also in regards to the amount of releases.

(Sadly, nothing to share on my side.)

Thank Keen for mathematics!!!

The best I have is a concept of a very new kind of keen game; a Keen/Mega Man crossover where it's set today, 25 years after fighting the Android Dummy, a 33 year old Dr. Billy Blaze builds a robot - Mega Keen - and it works similar to Mega Man except it has a very Commander Keen flavor, fighting common and popular enemies from all the games and bosses that he gets their powers and uses in over stages, leading to the final fight against Mortimer.

How many robots do you know that have Pogo Heels on their feet? :pogo

Also I found a text file "ALICE.txt" from 2005-10-28

Human: Say "The Universe is Toast"
ALICE:" The Universe is Toast".
Human: Say "These Shikadi are toast"
ALICE:" These Shikadi are toast".
Human: Have you ever been to Gnosticus IV?
ALICE: I don't think I have been there. Where is it.
Human: A long way from here, but worth the journey.
ALICE: Be more specific.

Happy Keen Day!

I was originally planning on making this for Keen 314, but the time has come and I (keen)rushed it to release it (unfinished) today.
