The Commander Keen games were some of the first games I ever played and I credit them with me being a gamer today. But I've not gone back to play them since the early 90s when I first fell in love with gaming, so come along with me as I venture back to Mars with Billy Blaze, aka Commander Keen.

It's pretty clear from the start that this isn't a modern game. To start with the keybindings are completely off from what we would expect to find today. Ctrl to jump?! Yep, this game was made before the space bar was the standard for jumping. I may end up changing the keybinds to the modern standard. But lets see how it goes like this for a while.
