This is a port of CloneKeen for the Sega Dreamcast.

CloneKeen is an almost almost complete open-source clone of
the old classic DOS game, Commander Keen: Invasion of the
Vorticons by ID Software. CloneKeen requires the original game
data files to work. You can play all three episodes of the game.

CloneKeen currently runs under win32, with SDL, and
under Linux/X11, with SDL.

and now the Dreamcast :)

I'm having some problems i extract all files into the root of the cd i did this with 1 and 2 and get a black screen. Is there supposed to be a folder with the containing files or do they have to be in the root?

I haven't tried the game yet but I think it needs a 'data' directory for the files.
