  5. Bobby Prince passed away on June 16, aged 81. He composed the soundtracks to DOOM, Wolfenstein 3D, Duke Nukem 3D, and Commander Keen — music that defined what PC gaming sounded like in the 90s.

    Just weeks before his death, the Library of Congress inducted his DOOM score into the National Recording Registry. A fitting recognition for work that was genuinely ahead of its time.

    Rest in peace, Bobby. The riffs still hit.

  7. Bobby Prince has died.

    He was the musical face of the DOS era, with iconic compositions for games such as the Commander Keen series, the Doom series, and Duke Nukem 3D. While he hadn't been very active in the past 25 years, many people remember his music, and some levels of Doom I and II still instantly evoke the distinctive AdLib sound of his tunes. A great loss!

  14. Game Pile: The Universe Is Toast!

    You might think that I have said everything there is to say about Commander Keen. After all, I wrote a series of articles about it, then I wound up making a video that only bothers me a massive amount because I left a whole audio track muted and in the process left the game music completely silent, gosh dangit. That video covers the first trilogy of Keen games, then the second duology and the two standalones. That is after all all the Keen games that exist, right?

    Well, sort of and also no.

    Commander Keen was something a lot of folk liked as kids and a lot of that liking as kids meant that it became a hobby as an adult. Some of us speedrun it, some of us write lengthy video essays, some write fanfiction and some of us, some of us, worked out how to break the game open and mod whole episodes of the game into existence.

    Now, before I proceed, this is a free mod. This is the indie-est of indie projects, and you might imagine this means I’m going to be super gentle about something or other. Do not worry about that. This free mod for a commercial set of games has its roughness, but it is a game I think worth considering in its own right.

  17. 👾 Ah, behold, the 21st-century digital archeologists! 🕵️‍♂️ They've reconstructed the source code of Commander Keen 1-3, because apparently, that's the pinnacle of human achievement in 2023. 🏆 Let's gather 'round and marvel at the relentless pursuit of the utterly irrelevant! 🚀
