Based on years of research I can finally reveal the height of a lemming in the original game


However by Oh-No, it seems the shrunk, being smaller than a chameleon, then by lemmings 2, they were even smaller than things like a toy spade, and about the same size as a bee.

Nice job figuring this out! :thumbsup:

However, what made you focus on the chameleon specifically when it came to ONML? Why not compare them to any other trap, e.g. a buzzsaw, as it appears on the Brick tileset? :P
My packs so far:
Lemmings World Tour (New & Old Formats), my music-themed flagship pack, 320 levels - Let's Played by Colorful Arty
Lemmings Open Air, my newest release and follow-up to World Tour, 120 levels
Paralems (Old Formats), a more flavour-driven one, 150 levels
Pit Lems (Old Formats), a more puzzly one, 100 levels - Let's Played by nin10doadict
Lemmicks, a pack for (very old) NeoLemmix 1.43 full of gimmicks, 170 levels

Perhaps their size is consistent (at least within the L1-era games) and the gravestones are specifically made to be lemming-sized?
My projects
2D Lemmings: NeoLemmix (engine) | Lemmings Plus Series (level packs) | Doomsday Lemmings (level pack)
3D Lemmings: Loap (engine) | L3DEdit (level / graphics editor) | L3DUtils (replay / etc utility) | Lemmings Plus 3D (level pack)
Non-Lemmings: Commander Keen: Galaxy Reimagined (a Commander Keen fangame)

Lemmings die too much to have gravestones so they MUST the same size as in real life, because as we all know, lemmings is filmed live in the real world
