It could be quite neat, though.  Though I think the best idea is for whoever does this to go into GuyPerfect's project if it doesn't go on.  That would suck though, wouldn't it, Clam Spammer?

It seems GuyPerfect has made his decision. If you have any vacancies for level designers, then I'd be happy to join. I know next to nothing about programming, so I'm afraid I won't be able to contribute much until the time comes to make the levels, or at least when the skill set is finalised. And remember that most of the ideas brought up in the Perfect Blend thread could apply here. Plus I still have more ideas of ways to improve the game :)

Can you give us an update? It's been nearly a month since you last posted about it. Has the project started yet?

Something tells me this project's dead too.  :(

For the record, mine was never alive to begin with. (-:

Has this one ever been actually alive?

This idea is itching my brain all the time:

I would like to create a multiplayer online version of lemmings (or other creatures if I run into legal problems).
The project is far to much work for one person so what I need is a team!
If there are any programmers who would like to join give me an e-mail:

ericlangedijk (at) gmail (dot) com

I already got two persons who are interested.
1. A Wild Idea Manager
2. Someone who is willing to try and create new pictures of animations / terrain / traps

ccexplore? mindless? Volker Oth? What about you?

The idea is to create new levels, designed for multiiple users who have to work together to solve a level. Different colors of lemmings are controlled by the different players.
Another idea is the opposite: a race in which you can try to do damage to other people's lemmings and you try to reach the required percentage first.
A third idea is to do a race: who is first or who is smartest.
Of course online statistics will be made for all users: who is the best :)
I'm also thinking of users who are able to create levels and upload them, so that everyone can play them.

If you ever actually carry this project on, I'll test, and, if I don't have to program in any way using actual programming language, I can help with the level designing (also, if you'd like, I'll be fine with you using any levels I make for other purposes, if you give me credit).
