Story
Updated 08.12.03
Commander Keen is sent on a mission to retrieve a number of artifacts stolen from a world known as Dinu, on which live a race of orb-like energy beings who call themselves Dinu'u. The survival of the Dinu'u is dependent upon the Essence Delimiter Flux, a machine that manufactures 'essence', an ethereal substance of which the Dinu'u are composed. Without the stolen artifacts, the machine cannot operate.

A society of zealous monks known as Garthurians, driven by religious beliefs instilled in their planet over the past few millennia by a megalomaniacal Shikadi who calls himself Hector, are responsible for the disappearance of the Flux components. In addition, entire continents of Dinu'u population have been captured so that their essence can be extracted.

The artifacts and captured Dinu'u have been hidden away on Garthuria, a world shrouded in mystery, said to be the origin of many of the most infamous crimes recorded in intergalactic history.

Security is tight, but Keen discovers he can disguise himself as one of the lower monks and not be noticed as easily. The more advanced Garthurians will still see through this disguise, of course, so Keen will still need to be careful.

These beings are powerful, and have terrorised the galaxy for much of the current age. But never before have they matched wits with...

COMMANDER KEEN
Defender of the Galaxy

In his disguised ship, the Bean-With-Bacon Megarocket, Keen dispenses galactic justice with an essence-charged hand.
 
MOST RECENT NEWS

Update: December 16, 2004
Here are a few new screens, which I posted at the CK:MB thread at the PCKB.

The first screen I took hoping for some feedback as to what would make for better point items in the purple areas... however, the final screenshot shows that I've made some further progress in this area, though I hadn't updated the test level after making those four-sided essence star thinggies into four-frame animations, so you don't see the other three items. Ah, well. Enjoy.
