The games follow the adventures of a young genius named Billy Blaze, also known as Commander Keen, as he battles aliens and other adversaries across various planets and dimensions. Here's an overview of the plot and any associated rumors:
Plot:
1. **Introduction of Commander Keen**: The first game in the series, titled "Commander Keen in Invasion of the Vorticons," was released in 1990. In this game, Billy Blaze builds a spaceship out of household items and sets out to save the galaxy from the evil alien race known as the Vorticons, who have stolen vital components of his spaceship.
2. **Platforming Adventures**: The "Commander Keen" series is known for its fast-paced platforming gameplay, colorful graphics, and quirky sense of humor. Players control Commander Keen as he explores alien worlds, battles enemies, and collects items and power-ups to aid him on his quest.
3. **Expansion and Sequels**: The success of the first "Commander Keen" game led to the development of several sequels and spin-offs, including "Commander Keen in Goodbye, Galaxy!" and "Commander Keen in Aliens Ate My Babysitter!" Each game in the series introduced new levels, enemies, and gameplay mechanics while retaining the signature style and charm of the original.
Rumors:
One persistent rumor associated with the "Commander Keen" series is the existence of hidden secrets and Easter eggs within the games. Fans have speculated about the presence of secret levels, hidden messages, and cryptic references hidden throughout the series, waiting to be discovered by dedicated players. While some of these rumors have been confirmed by developers or discovered through data mining and exploration, others remain unconfirmed and continue to fuel speculation and excitement among fans of the series. Additionally, there have been occasional rumors and speculation about potential new entries in the "Commander Keen" series, although nothing has been officially announced by id Software or Apogee Software at the time of my last update.
