I got this game from a bundle, and I tried it with the expectation it would be shit, but actually it's not as bad as I thought.
It's actually better than Wolfenstein 3D in some ways.
First of all it has an automap which removes most of the frustration with playing Wolfenstein 3D. Second, it actually has has a rocket launcher type weapon which doesn't share ammo with all the other weapons, pic related.
What do you think /vr/?

Looks interesting, Is it true ID gave Wisdom Tree
the source code to Wolfenstein 3D as a fuck you to Nintendo?
isn't this worth a bundle
Actually the automap was added to the Steam port.
Still makes the game much more fun to play than Wolfenstein though, but I'm sure some sourceport adds that to Wilfenstein too.

From what ive heard, no, they bought the licence just like any other company in the day who wanted the wolfenstein engine for their FPS

The problem I have with this game (and Wolf3D) is that the damage you take seems so variable, and so are the enemy's reaction time.

A few versions have it.
The SNES one has it, and I think maybe the Jaguar and 3DO ports too

It's almost entirely random. Both the enemy's chance to hit and the damage you take is based on just obstruction, range, and RNG

I can tell. The game was pretty difficult at times even on easy

yeah I agree atleas in regards of music and sound design this game is way more advanced. I mean wolf3d sounds are cool when in combat but I am talking about the pickup sound and all that
speaking of id games
sorry for a bit off topic but I am retard and didn't find a more fitting thread
so I just got my hands on keen dreams
since it's an id game I thought this is a place if any to ask
is it really considered a good game or is it nostalgia? the autoaim, controls, leaps of faith and even the graphics are not too enjoyable.
I try to be constructive here and I know it's a fucking ancient game but still, I cannot find a guy who would agree with this.
so enough with the blog post and just ask
am I the only one?

Keen Dreams was a throwaway game id made for Softdisk Publishing. Commander Keen 4-6 are the good ones.
