But while Keen was exploring Mars, the alien Vorticons stole vital parts from his ship and hid them in the Martian cities. Now Keen must find the stolen parts if he wants to return to Earth. Commander Keen 1: Marooned on Mars is the first in a series of platform games. Your objective is to find the 4 missing parts to your ship. Here are the release Commander Genius versions. The latest is the best, but sometimes certain ports are not supported right now. The Keen Games are not provided for download but since CG has an integrated Downloader you can let them pull from there. If you bought all the Commander Keen episodes off of id's webpage, you'd be paying 30 bucks. The Commander Keen complete pack on Steam is only 5 dollars. I'd still like the option to buy it on GOG though.

Playing as the pint-sized genius Billy Blaze, you find yourself lost on Mars after taking your homemade rocket out for a spin. After aliens jack (steal) pieces of his ship and run off with them, it’s BB’s job to get them back. Transforming into his galactic alter ego, Commander Keen, he has to navigate each level, avoiding enemies and traps, and retrieve his ship parts. Though young, he does not come unarmed and can utilize a ray gun to defend himself. Ammo is not unlimited, so some strategy is involved. Billy can also find other useful items around the levels to help on his way, like the handy-dandy pogo stick.

The game features two camera angles. The first being a top-down view when you are on the planet’s map, and the second being a side view once inside a level. This was also one of the first games to prove that side-scrolling was very possible on a computer. Interestingly, the first chapter of the game was completely free when it was released, with the option to purchase the other 2 chapters. Birthing the beloved Commander Keen franchise, Marooned on Mars is an oldie, but a goodie.
