Is the sprite of Keen that you have animated under your name in all the forums your new XkyKeen4 sprite? Because it is another demonstration of your (Xky's) ability to create a perfect realisation of a brilliant idea. (The idea of making Keen look as stylised as possible).
Ilsoap is getting married, actually. Combine that with the fact that he's looking for work in the animation industry, he's one busy fellow. He won't be doing an Episode 3 for a few reasons.
First off, Commander Keen is still copyrighted by ID Software, and can't be used without permission. The animation may look awesome, but it's not exactly legal for him to be using it for anything which would make him money (including a portfolio for getting a job!) He's better off doing work which showcases his originality and talent, so that he can get a job and feed his wife and potential children.
Second, he's got other things he's involved with. Commander Keen is awesome and all, but he's got an actual life to live! He still pokes around here and there to say hi, and we love him for that, but he's slowly moving on. :-)
Thanks for filling in for me Xky. I couldn't have said it any better myself.
You mean your avatar is what Xky Keen 4 is going to look like? TOTALLY AWESOME!!! Though, I can imagian it'd be hard to impliment a pogo into him: He may be the cutest keen I have ever seen, but his arms...

^Yeah^ That's exactly what I meant; their to short, though you could give him a smaller pogo; but oh well... Good luck!
