I have to say thank you, because this book just introduced me to the Lemmings SFX record. :thumbsup:

I've made it through the original levels, I don't think there were any that really had me stumped for any time, having the ability to back up and fix mistakes definitely made it easier! I played through a few from MazuLems as well, they are definitely a step up from the orginals!

This evening around 8pm ETC I'll be livestreaming some Lemmings 3D! Please feel free to come by and hang out at twitch.tv/ShrungTV  After a while of that game, I might look at some more MazuLems, and possibly some other games.

Lemmings Main / Re: My Lemmings Discussion Thread

You're very patient to be playing on the DOS version :thumbsup: that's part of why I never got through it when I was younger, I was missing out on the ff button, haha. Now that I'm playing through on NeoLemmix, I feel spoiled to be able to skip around so much, but I think the mental puzzle still remains  (on most levels at least, some clearly use the mechanics as the main challenge of the level)

edit: looking at your solution to steel works, I just realized that for some reason I waaay over complicated things on my playthrough last night. For some reason I didn't think to use a blocker to turn the second lemming to build that stairway. I guess it's fun to have found a 1 blocker solution, but man what a crazy blindspot, haha! I guess I just thought since it's mayhem, the hardest thing I can think of must be the solution!

Hey Arty, just saw your YouTube channel...
Emphasis on family friendly content, nice! Doing Lemmings level design, awesome! Zoombinis?! I NEED to watch these videos :D

I'd love to tune in to you live some time, what's your twitch name? Also, random aside, have you ever played Captain Bible?

There are no Lemmings games (Lomax doesn't count) where lemmings stand still by default.

And Lemmings Paintball, that one counts right? ;P

Thanks for all the tips! I just played through the original fun and taxing levels, and it was great to see some of you in chat! Because I had issues running L3D in the past, I never played more than a few levels, so I'm excited to jump into that one too! I'll send you a PM or something when I plan to play that one, or if you follow me on twitch, I'll be sure to mention it in the title when I go live.

I'm gonna hop back online for a bit and stream some other games as well :)

Thanks Namida for the overview! I'll definitely start with the original lemmings levels, probably I will just go through the neolemmix original pack, since I can skip and come back if I get stuck anyway. After that I'll probably take a look at some of those more beginner friendly packs you mentioned!

I also have Lemmings 3D, Lemmings 3, Lemmings Revolution, and even Lemmings Paintball to go through eventually, haha.

The past couple days I got some Lemmings overlays set up for my stream, it was way easier than I anticipated thanks to having a level editor!

Thanks Nessy! Yeah, I meant NeoLemmix, I just got all the levels converted and got it running!

I'm excited to see how far the difficulty has been pushed, I know there is a lot to catch up on, in terms of metas that have been formed and glitches that have been exploited in level design, etc. And of course a lot more difficulty can be added when framestep is available to the player. I'll definitely check out the IRC channel as I get going :)

Hi everyone! I just found this forum the other day, and I'm so excited that these games still have an active community!

I've been a casual fan of the games all my life, I played Lemmings 2 as a child, and in high school I collected all the Lemmings games I could and got them running on Windows.

I only ever completed Lemmings 2 and The Adventures of Lomax though! I'd like to remedy that, and even get into some of these custom level packs! I'd not heard of Lemmix until a couple days ago, when I stumbled across it while reinstalling all my old games and getting them going again with DOSBox. My brothers and I used to draw Lemmings levels for each other on paper on long car trips, maybe I can find some and transcribe them :thumbsup:

I'd like to stream my progress with some of these Lemmings games on Twitch.tv! I'll be starting off pretty rusty though, but hopefully moving forward quickly ;P

My channel is ShrungTV, but is empty at the moment. My first couple streams will be some setup work, making some Lemmings themed overlays and animations! I think this will be a lot of fun, and would love to have people hang out with me while I'm diving back into Lemmings :D

I gladly welcome suggestions on Lemmings players/level packs, to try out, and will probaby welcome hints when I get stuck on some of the original levels!

Let's Go!
