The DOOM universe is referred to as the 7th Dimension at one point right?

yup, which could potentially indicate a multiverse, but I admit 7th dimension could mean that it's just a dimension, nothing more.

For Commander Keen, I just tought about that he has to be 8, which doesn't break the fact that it can happen in the 90s since the Blazko twins are both 19 in 1980, so let's say that the 1st game happens in 1990 the date Commander Keen 1 was released, then the Blazko twins would have been 21 when he was born in 1983, so I don't see why it has to be moved later in the timeline.

Well, Keen's Dad is BJs son, not one of the twin girls, so you have to add another 20 or so years so he can have a son

Btw how do we know the 2D games from the 80s are canon? Castle Wolfenstein and Beyond
