I've found a clipping bug in the Well Of Wishes-the doorway which the council member is behind-if Keen is halfway between the sides of the door,his sprite goes screwy and falls one tile into the floor.--Xterra1 15:51, 8 July 2007 (GMT)

Please add this!--Xterra1 20:41, 19 July 2007 (GMT)

Done -- Malvineous 07:45, 24 July 2007 (GMT)
Cool-please try registering on Wikipedia!--Xterra1 16:14, 24 July 2007 (GMT)
Huh? Why would Wikipedia be interested in this?! -- Malvineous 00:38, 25 July 2007 (GMT)
Just a suggestion.--Xterra1 02:00, 25 July 2007 (GMT)
I don't understand what you're suggesting... -- Malvineous 03:26, 25 July 2007 (GMT)
I think the sugesstion was that Wikipedia is a nice wiki too, and as he likes contributing here and in Wikipedia, he was suggesting you to check out Wikipedia and help out there. However, I think this kind of conversation is exactly the kind that goes better in the Forums than here.... it has nothing to do with this article, and nothing to do with this wiki.Sega381 03:29, 25 July 2007 (GMT)
Well that's what I thought, but since I'm already registered on Wikipedia under the same username, I thought he must have meant something else...but you're right, this sort of discussion belongs on a forum elsewhere. -- Malvineous 23:23, 25 July 2007 (GMT)

About the bug in Cave of the Descendants

It's not a level-specific bug. It happens in any level where such a door mechanism in which Keen falls down after being teleported is present. As far as I can remember, those levels would be the Pyramid of Shadows, Pyramid of Moons (?), Cave of the descendants, Chasm of Chills and Pyramid of the Forbidden. However, I don't know what text put in the article to state that, nor I have the time to do that.--Shadow Master 16:19, 18 December 2007 (GMT)


About the exploit/cheat/bug in Pyramid of the Forbidden

Currently, the last bug says, "It is possible to go outside the Pyramid of the Forbidden without using the F10+N clipping cheat." This statement needs more explanation. I think it means that using the clipping cheat, and using this exploit, are both ways to exit the level by pseudo-physically exiting (similar to other levels) instead of by rescuing the janitor. Am I right in this interpretation, and is it true? --ViviFizgig 18:35 09 January 2009 (EST)

Pyramid of the Forbidden confusion

--Syllypryde 09:29, 10 January 2009 (GMT)Vivifizgig- Up until I posted the bug, I am sure most Keen players believed Pyramid of the Moons was the only pyramid you can go outside of. I just wanted to make players aware that it is also possible to go outside the Pyramid of the Forbidden as well. I am not sure if it really is a bug, but since it is definitely an odd behavior and an unexpected action, it does fit here in the bug section.

To answer your question and hopefully put an end to any confusion, this "bug" does not exit the level. As the title suggests, all it does is take you outside of the pyramid, not outside of the level. You cannot finish the level by doing this trick.

Category

Ought there to be a "Bugs" category to group all the bug pages together? -- DHeadshot 15:45, 1 September 2009 (GMT)

Sure, why not. -- Malvineous 21:44, 12 April 2010 (GMT)

Inconsistancies

This is what Princess Lindsey meant by her mysterious comment "The way to the Pyramid of the Forbidden lies under the Pyramid of Moons." (Although the level is actually called the Pyramid of the Moons)

Does this not count as a bug? -- DHeadshot 12:08, 11 April 2010 (GMT)

On a lighter note, maybe we ought to forgive inconsistancies and grammatical errors in the canon, given that they have been translated form Omnispeak into English... -- DHeadshot 12:08, 11 April 2010 (GMT)

I think documenting all the typos in the game wouldn't be all that interesting to read about, the bugs are mostly things you actually have to do in a special way to see them. -- Malvineous 21:44, 12 April 2010 (GMT)

Death flag glitch

If you want, check out the description of the death flag glitch in Keen 4 submission on TASVideos, and describe it here. B jonas 08:34, 1 April 2012 (GMT)

Some .gifs aren't working?

Some of the .gif files aren't moving, while others are. If I click on a frozen .gif, it still won't animate. When I come back later, some moving .gifs may stop while some frozen .gifs might start moving. I'm not sure why any of this is happening. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me? Quinton (talk) 05:24, 12 August 2023 (GMT)

I cannot reproduce this problem on my end. On my devices, all GIF animations are rendered correctly.
