My favorite Command Keen out of the original 6. Memorable music and art. I first played it in the 90's as my dad had original copies of the game. This one is hard to come by now as it was published by a different company other than Apogee. This also means it's not in the bundle listed on Steam so there is no way to acquire it other than sailing the seas.

I have such fond memories of this as a kid. It's such a shame it's not readily available anymore. If anyone can sort out the licensing issues around it, it's GOG.

My friend and I would endlessly play the Commander Keen series when we were little. He had the full series though and this was one that I only ever got to play when I visited him, so it retains some mysticism all these years later. The continuation of the story of Billy Blaze in his wildest adventure. This is a long overdue entry in the collection.
The best and most trippy of all the Commander Keen games. This should be part of the complete bundle. Why must I type at least one hundred and sixty characters.

Ratchet & Clank
Ratchet & ClankRatchet & Clank is a platform/adventure game in a similar vein to the 3D versions of the Rayman, Sonic, Mario, or other games. It involves the two protagonists Ratchet, a furry alien creature, and Clank, a nerdy little robot, going on a quest to find Captain Qwark and ultimately to help save the galaxy. Ratchet & Clank includes many of the best features of previous similar games, but makes itself unique in a number of ways. Firstly each of the game's levels are huge sweeping vistas with extremely detailed buildings which are visible at all times (i.e. there is no distance fog). This means that a building on the horizon is not just a "backdrop"; in all likelihood Ratchet will be exploring it in a few moments time. Secondly, the game includes a number of sub-games, such as a space fight sequence and a number of turret shoot-outs which are akin to Missile Command in the first person. The game has over twenty levels (planets) and includes as many real-time cut-scenes which tell the story. Also of note is that the story is non-linear, requiring the player to return to previous levels to complete objectives and to choose between multiple paths forward. There is also a respectable array of weapons, gadgets, and accessories to find or buy as the game progresses, which offer some unique gameplay features.

X-Men: Mutant AcademyX-Men: Mutant Academy is a 3-D/2D fighting game developed by Paradox, the company behind Activision's Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style and the never-published Thrill Kill, and based on the X-Men characters from Marvel Comics. The game was released for the Game Boy Color and PlayStation as a tie-in to X-Men. X-Men: Mutant Academy is a basic fighting game that uses six buttons: three buttons for punches and three for kicks. Due to the success of the game, it was followed by two sequels: X-Men: Mutant Academy 2 and X-Men: Next Dimension. The game's characters can be played both with their comic book costumes and their costumes from the 2000 film X-Men. Characters not present in the film were given costumes of a similar design.
