Wink Hmmm, I think I found a secret message.

Beat Episode 6 of Jazz Jackrabbit 1. There is a message on the wall of the ending picture that appears to be written in the Standard Galactic Alphabet, the alphabet used in the Commander Keen series. It was top secret to find the translations to in Keen, so it's really secret here. Stayed tuned for what it says.

Okay, well it's REALLY hard to make out, and some of the characters are messed up, but if somebody can try translating it...

Top line looks like it says 'Eva' but if it's some sort of code then I'm just musing.

I've seen this before, though I never knew it was a secret code.
The top line looks like it says Eva, second line looks like help!, but I think I'm probably wrong.

I have the SGA font on my computer. Ph33r.

I'll translate it when I get home. For now, I'm in my programming class. And there is no SGA font on these craptacular computers.

Mental brain thought: Why are the letters in messages in Commander Keen written in SGA, but the words are English?

Newshnoz is right. That isn't SGA, despite its similarity to it. None of the letters even look SGA-ish.

Sorry to disappoint, but I think it's just a bunch of random dots and lines.

First two lines really look like "eva" or "help". I don't think it's just random palcing of dots etc...but probably a modified font or so. Perhaps the text is like "Eva help! They found the message- now what?" or so .

There's a slight problem with your theory, Unhit. The fourth, sixth, and eighth lines looks pretty close to identical, as do the third and eleventh. Whatever that message is supposed to say, it's awfully repetitive.

The bottom lines are just upside down letters. It's just random letters. No actual words. Turn your head upside down and read.

How do you know those letters aren't a code for something? =P

In fact, they just alternate and flip two different lines for the whole thing. Gibberish.
