The sequel to Commander Keen in Invasion of the Vorticons, with a new engine and much improved graphics and sound. Once again, you must save the world armed with a gun and a pogo stick, against new aliens and through new worlds. This time you don't have to find the pogo stick, but you can find scuba gear to help you swim. Episode numbers in Commander Keen in Goodbye, Galaxy! continue from the original trilogy, making the two games a series. A CGA version was also released, and FormGen distributed a five level demo of the EGA version. There are 2 episodes in this game, with only the first episode playable in the shareware version.

[F10] [J] Jump cheat (Note that you will not be able to jump down while the jump cheat is activated)
