I found the secret message while playing the game through. I have planned a long time playing this game through and about now I have reached the secret level in episode three: E3 A8 "Eight Ways to Hell". The message is displayed in the secret area at the bottom of the map. The secret is accessible in the beginning of the long corridoor with the round rolling stones. It really says "Dopefish lives" in Standard Galactic Alphabet. I had'nt read about this, but I accidentally found the secret and as I have played the Commander Keen series many years ago (and found the SGA in Keen3 and Keen6), I recognised the letters as "Vorticon" and took immediate action to find the alphabet once again to figure the message out...

Should I say: This is neat? :D

Future Stuff

Joe Siegler from Apogee here. There's two things I plan on adding here - I'd do it now, except I'd have to dig the materials out of my archives at work. One is a copy of an old piece of paper Tom Hall used to have hanging above his desk when Keen was being made. It was his original SGA document. It shows the entire alphabet as originally created.

Additionally, not all 26 letters have been used in the Keen games. At the moment, I forget which were not, I'd have to look it up.

Heh. Right after I posted this, I found the SGA scan document on the 3DR website. As I'm the webmaster there, I uploaded it here for the SGA page.

C & S

Are the SGA equivalents really the same, or it just my eyes?

Great article!

About the level in Rise Of The Triad

I found the secret message while playing the game through. I have planned a long time playing this game through and about now I have reached the secret level in episode three: E3 A8 "Eight Ways to Hell". The message is displayed in the secret area at the bottom of the map. The secret is accessible in the beginning of the long corridoor with the round rolling stones. It really says "Dopefish lives" in Standard Galactic Alphabet. I had'nt read about this, but I accidentally found the secret and as I have played the Commander Keen series many years ago (and found the SGA in Keen3 and Keen6), I recognised the letters as "Vorticon" and took immediate action to find the alphabet once again to figure the message out...
