Stranded on Saturn - a PICO-8 demake of Commander Keen 1-3. Pogo your way through 4 huge (by PICO-8 standards, at least) levels to find the Bean-with-Bacon Megarocket and escape back to Earth!

Controls:

(o) or z - jump

(x) or x - get out/put away pogo stick

Hold jump while pogoing to go a lot higher!

Collect lollipops, sodas, and Vorticon teddy bears for an extra challenge. These are totally optional and just serve as an extra objective for those that are interested (much like the strawberries in Celeste).

Brilliant! Nice mix of the original gameplay and new ideas. Love to see more!

Thanks a bunch! Would be fun to make a sequel sometime :)

Pretty good and not as simple as planned, but enough to have a good evening :)

glad you liked it!

nice game

thanks!

I love the controls and presentation, but the level design is absolutely not keen-ish 😉

I stopped at the part where you have to destroy these crumbling blocks with our head because it just wasn't enjoyable for me at all.

Hope this feedback helps ✌

Sorry to hear it didn’t work for you! I definitely took some creative liberties with it.
