Keen Modding outside of Windows
Keen Modding outside of Windows
Can somebody list Commander Keen modding tools that are either open source or cross platform (Abiathar Online is an example of the ladder), preferably both.
EDIT: a completed list with compatibility info is now online:

I assume you are intending to mod some Galaxy stuff on a Linux base, right?
here is what comes to mind (might be an incomplete listing)
EDIT: nearly every standalone Keen Modding .exe will work under linux when using the WINE program starter!

I wanna say I compiled a linux binary of KeenWave (thanks to Lass) at some point... Ahhh well... there's always the older version via dosboxNisaba wrote:I assume you are intending to mod some Galaxy stuff on a Linux base, right?
