Homebrew - Commander K. Wii v0.9 - Image 1Wiibrew dev bigs has released Commander K. Wii, allowing you to play the first 3 episodes of Commander Keen on the Wii.

bigs, this is the first time I’ve seen one of your Wiibrew, but you are the man. I loved this series when I was a kid.

Note that this is just a port of the CloneKeen game engine by Caitlin Shaw, so you’ll still need the original .CK* data files from the original episodes to play them. However, bigs has provided the first episode along with the download.

To play the first episode, copy the .CK* files in the same directory as boot.dol. The Wiimote is used horizontally for this game (no motion-sensing, what did you expect? :p). There are still a few bugs here and there, but bigs says he’s hunting them down. Here are the controls:

Menu:

  • 1: Skip intro scene
  • 2: Select Episode
  • Up, Down: Select menu options

Game Controls:

  • Left, Right: move Commander Keen
  • 2: Jump
  • 1: Use Gun
  • B: Use Pogo stick
  • -: Pause
  • Home: Quit
