Clone Keen is an almost almost complete clone of one of classic DOS games, Commander Keen (episodes 1-3) by ID Software.

The package contains the shareware version, i.e Episode One. If you want the other episodes you have to find them yourself.

Data files should be placed on the same drive you installed the program, in the dataclonekeendata folder. After installation you will see that folder already created.

Gaming might be abit tricky since keys are hard coded. Jump with left soft key or ‘*’, shoot with ‘0’, god mode with 1,2,3 at the same time. “T” is ‘8’ ‘Q’ is 7.

Depending on the scaling you might have to adjust the frameskip in the options menu.

Libellen by LiraNuna is a sprite handling library for the Nintendo DS, based on libNDS.

Release notes:

The impossible happened! I actually took some time to clean up and resolve the libellen-libnds collision problems, while also transforming libellen to the traditional library.a file. I also added very primitive background handler – it works, but don’t count on it.

Please remember that the source code and library (and everything inside the zip archive) is released under the terms of the WTFPL.
