Made by id for their old publisher Softdisk, it's not part of the Commander Keen Collection id released because id doesn't own the rights. One fan set up an IndieGogo campaign to license the rights. However, not satisfied with just slapping it in a DosBOX wrapper and calling it a day, he released the source code and then proceeded to work on updating to run natively on modern systems.
There's also a DRM-free release on IndieGameStand, without the SteamPlay features of course.
