I'm trying to remember... which Keen had the paintings at the end of the levels?

Paintings? At the end of all the levels? Or just some?

There might have been paintings in the castle in Keen Dreams.

Or there could have been paintings in the houses in Keen 3.



Anyways Keen 3 is probably my favourite in the series. You even get to ride around on that.. thing in the water! And discover the intergalactic alphabet.

Paintings? Do you remember were those paintings in the first three Keens (1-3) or the last three Keens (4-6)? Oh, and there is also the fan made Keen; Commander Keen In Keen Dreams.

Keen Dreams wasn't actually fan-made. It's made by Softdisk rather than Apogee though. It came out between Keen 3 and Keen 4, and you can see that the improved graphics from Keen Dreams were kept in Keen 4. Many people consider Keen Dreams to be 'Keen 3 and a half'. Gameplay is pretty different though, with no pogo and the whole 'turning your enemies from vegetables into flowers' thing...

Anyways it's not quite an 'official' part of the series, but it's more than a fan-made game, and it was the first keen game to have the kinda angled '3d' platforms that were in 4-6.
