Here's an alternative version of Metal City Mayhem, which you may prefer. One more floater, three fewer miners, one more steel piece. Saving the crowd is definitely easier now, but the intended solution now requires a little more precision elsewhere.

Here, have a level. Not entirely intended to have one strict solution, but you shouldn't be able to save too many more than the requirement. Name can be edited if any French speakers take offense  http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/tongue.gif" alt=":P" title="Tongue" class="smiley" />

Exasperating level -- in a good way, of course -- but I finally cracked it. (A couple of plausible routes that just fail, but you won't find out until the end; and the solution I found needs great accuracy twice to only just save a lix from the second and third entrances.)

Backroute to Cold Iron's Bound, solution to Merde (the order in which you take the entrances is definitely important, with the wrong order I clearly fell short of the number to save), and to the second version of Metal City Mayhem. Found it definitely more enjoyable than the first version, though ironically it was miners I usually ran out of in the first version.

EDIT: Now also solved the first version of Metal City Mayhem - very technical solution, and the time limit added at lot of unnecessary annoyance.

Proxima

Excellent solutions; I'm happy to go with the second version and leave that solution in. Here's mine.

mobius

fix to cold irons bound. As a side note there is another backroute which Proxima found but I don't really know if it's easier or not.

I remade these two levels by namida.

Minim

Those levels look quite good in my opinion.

Anyway, I have another downloadable file available below this post. It features 8 more single player levels and 3 multiplayer levels (But I also intend to make these levels work in singleplayer mode as well, so they are all solvable).

I had a lot of free time on my hands within the past week. During this week I have decided to make (and have successfully done) a new graphic set. I will upload these files (Along with two more levels exclusive to this new pack) on a new thread.

Solved all the 1-player levels.

Almighty Sawblade: Definitely my favourite puzzle of the set, took me a long time to figure out though I had some skills left over. 2-player version looks interesting as well. Horrible background colour.
Descendants: Quite interesting, but, as geoo would say, brute-force solution.
Dude, where's my shovel?: Good easy level to introduce the trampoline object.
Grab your umbrellas: Visually awesome but really annoying to play.
Not too straightforward: It was. Solved with 7 skills.
Some like to run: Part 2 is excellent but not too hard, so having both parts seems pointless.
Take a dive: Backrouted using one of my favourite tricks, the interrupted basher step.

I'm changing "Transmigration of Lix" because it's too easy and not what I originally wanted. Also changing the title cause now I think it's stupid.

As mentioned in my separate topic, I'm working on remaking the original 2-player levels in Lix. Two of them -- Amiga Level 9, The Pipe Room, and its Genesis replacement, Now use miners and climbers -- stand out as visually pleasing or interesting, so I made them as 1-player levels as well. (They were also by far the most time-consuming to remake, so I wanted to get as much value for effort as I could!) The 1-player versions are extremely easy and could fill a couple of gaps towards the beginning of the lowest-difficulty set.

Solved Migration, with 100%. Do you need a replay?

Proxima

And here's a 1-player remix of "May the craftiest player win". This one is not quite so easy.

I think, like the others, the 1-player version should have a distinct title (but connected to the original) and I'm open to suggestions.

Clam

How about replacing 'win' with 'survive', since you need 100% meaning all the lix have to survive. Survival of the Craftiest? You still need to be crafty because of the low skill counts http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/smiley.gif" alt=":)" title="Smiley" class="smiley" />

getting back on task...

here are two brand spanking new levels. Also included is Lixes and motion once again with some alterations.

below that is the folder of most of my revised levels from earlier. (The only thing that's revised is my name and and a few small odd things) Plus my fix to eye of the needle with the thin steel. I frankly don't care too much about it--it doesn't look bad to me and I don't remember why I disliked it before.
