			== Beating levels while dead ==

			It's possible to cheat past several of the levels in Keen 5 by dying near the right edge of the map, saving immediately, loading and letting Keen fall off the edge of the screen. This may be done, for example, in the [[Security Center]], [[Defense Tunnel Vlook]] as follows:

			# Stand by the beginning of the level at the right edge.
			# Let the [[Sparky]] touch you so Keen dies. Hit Escape immediately, before the "You didn't make it past..." dialogue appears.
			# Save your game.
			# Load your game. Provided Keen doesn't repeat-die by touching the Sparky again, you will win the level when Keen reaches the right edge of the screen.

			The testings show that unlike Keen 4 or Keen 6, there is no way in Keen 5 to get stuck without the necessary collectibles by getting out of level other way than the built-in exit mechanism, as the teleporter to the area with two final levels will open as soon as levels with numbers 4, 6, 8, 10 (the machines with fuses) are finished, regardless of fuses being broken or not, so this glitch works with all levels but QED, which must be completed by letting Shikadi Mine detonate and destroy the final huge fuse, as the only way to reach the "Game Won" screens.

	There's been at least two NetKeen levelpacks released on the PCKF, one of which is mine (link can be found in my userpage). I can't find the other one at the moment. Should these be noted in some form? I was thinking of adding a levelpacks section in the NetKeen article, which would have info about these levelpacks. Links could be provided in the download section.
