COMMANDER KEEN: EPISODE ONE -- "INVASION OF THE VORTICONS"
>>> Version 1.31 <<<
Published by
Apogee Software Productions
Developed and Programmed by
Id Software
Never before has the shareware market seen a game of the quality of
Commander Keen. Ultra-high speed EGA scrolling graphics and animation
at 40 frames per second! (Cartoons are animated at just 24 frames/second.)
You will need 640 RAM, with at least 530 free RAM to play Commander Keen.
In other words, don't have too many RAM resident (TSR) programs running
while you attempt to play Commander Keen. You will also need an EGA or
VGA system. CGA is not supported, sorry.
Joystick and keyboard are both supported, but not the mouse.
In some rare cases Commander Keen will detect a joystick when you really
don't have one. This might cause the joystick mode to automatically be
activated, when you really want to use the keyboard! To switch back to
keyboard control after the game begins, simply press F4, then Esc.
Apogee Software has many other exciting games, please send $6 if you would
like a sample disk of other great games. Mention disk size and the type
of graphics system (CGA, EGA or VGA) that you have.
If you notice any peculiar keyboard related problems, like a beeping
keyboard, try starting Keen with the /K option, i.e. "KEEN1 /K".
*** COMMANDER KEEN: GOODBYE GALAXY ***
Finally released December 1991, the thrilling sequel of the shareware's
most popular shareware game ever! Over 1.6 MEGs of action-packed graphics
and animation, with ingenious TILTED VIEW levels, AD LIB/SOUNDBLASTER MUSIC,
three skills levels, 18 GIGANTIC, smooth-scrolling levels, and more...!
To order GOODBYE GALAXY, an epic two-episode saga, call Apogee at
1-800-GAME123, during business hours: Mon-Fri, between 8am - 7pm, CST.
Thanks, and have fun with Commander Keen!
