Trivia
Even though this is the last game in the series, this was not the last one to be created. Commander Keen 5: The Armageddon Machine was created after Commander Keen 6: Aliens Ate My Baby Sitter! because the latter had to go to retail and that required lead time.
Keen 6 was not the last Keen game produced, it was developed after Keen 4 but before Keen 5.

This is the commercial Keen episode. (The others are shareware)
FormGen convinced id to put copy protection in the game.
The end of the game leaves a remarkably large gap for a sequel(s). It even makes a promise for 'the biggest adventure yet' in Christmas '92. The crew then tripped on the distraction that changed the path of PC gaming, Wolfenstein 3D. Once the crew finished up the game, some ID's keen crew began to defect. Tom Hall, Romero, and some others fled to cling onto Ion Storm.
