    Summary: CGenius is the clone of Commander Keen
    Description: 
    Commander Genius is an open-source clone of Commander Keen which allows you to
    play the games, and a majority of the mods made for it.  All of the original
    data files are required to do so, however, we convienently include Episode 1, 4
    and Dreams for your enjoyment in case you have downloaded a bundle. We also
    include the unofficial mod Keen 7, so more is to enjoy!
    
    So far Commander Keen 1-6 are fully supported. Keen Dreams is starting to work
    but still might have most of the issues. So far you can play all the games
    through. Also the menu lacks of a lot of features. Please configure input and
    sounds using the other games.
    
    There is an alternative called Reflection Keen which supports Keen Dreams on
    which the code is based. The merge of that code into CG is what we have been
    working on.
    
    Commander Genius runs on Linux/X11, Windows, Android, with plans to release on
    other platforms in the future. If you think you would like to port it, please
    send us a message and we will do our best to help you.
    
    The main goal of Commander Genius is to copy the original gameplay feeling as
    much as possible, and extend it further so you get a native implementation
    with even more features like:
    
    - Mod Support with nice extras
    - OpenGL Acceleration
    - SDL 2.0 Support
    - New graphical Effects
    - Multiplayer Support (Up to four players helping in the quest)
    - High Quality Packs which make the game look better,
      provide better sounds and even music you might that never existed in the original games
    - Ingame Menu for vorticons Keen as well as a new HUD for those
    - Named save slots
    - Unrestricted Joystick Support
    - and a lot more
