Omg never knew he did Commander Keen too. CK2 probably was the first video game I played (as far as I can remember). Go go pogo sticks!

Commander Keen is also Doom Guy's father, at least according to Tom Hall (co-founder of id software)

Being now 1/4th of the way through Doom Eternal I wonder how Canon that is. It seems Doomguy is the direct descendent of human-but-not warrior race? So BJ Blascowitz being human (maybe?) doesn't quite fit. They're doing such an awesome job expanding the Doom mythology that it'd be tight to watch them go back and explore Keen more, silly a game though it may have been.
