[NeoLemmix] Levels by NieSch

[NieSch]

Hi all! I'm new to level making using the great NeoLemmix Level Editor and I've made nine levels so far that I'd like to share.

I'm pre-releasing these nine levels, learn from the feedback, then make more levels and release a small pack of them someday.

These levels look very nice I'll definitely be checking them out sometime this week.

Solved "Liftboy Wanted".

I have a basher to spare, so it could be a backroute. I really like the design though.

[NieSch]

Thanks Nessy and IchoTolot.

Solved "Liftboy Wanted".

Well done! Yes, that's a backroute I didn't think of.

Edit: I changed the level to make your backroute impossible. There's now one basher less and one digger more. I can't see how, but I'm sure you'll find a new backroute now by using the digger...

[Strato Incendus]

Hehe, nice! You're not the first to use the Brick teleporter and receiver as lifts! I actually did that for my levels "Sweet Home Alabama" and "House of the Rising Sun", for which I added those teleporters to the Old-Formats version of Brick. This used to be one of the features that were only added for the New-Formats conversions.

Interestingly enoug, I haven't seen any other teleporters aside from the Brick one being used as lifts. I guess it's just down to the association that comes with seeing a teleporter as a part of a wall or a building.

[NieSch]

I guess you're right. I associated them with the lifts from another game I used to play in my childhood: Thunderbirds. Also for the Amiga like the original Lemmings.



The levels you mention look really nice. It's incredible the amount of great levels you all have made. It's like rediscovering Lemmings again.

Hey, this one was quite simple. Maybe a backroute?

[NieSch]

Oops! I forgot to lock the release rate. Thanks for testing, I'll fix that.

Edit: Fixed and new version uploaded, see attachment to my post above.

[Swerdis]

I just did it right on time.

[NieSch]

Well done! It's a backroute so it's back to the drawing board for me.

Edit: I changed the level slightly.

Level 4

Level Name: Pythagolem's Theorem
Graphic Set: Marble (Orig)

[Swerdis]

It took me a bit, but then I found a solution

[NieSch]

I like it! Again, it's not the intended solution, but it's close this time. It leaves the same triangle in the landscape that the title of the level is referring to. So I'm not gonna change the level this time. Thanks again for playing.

[Swerdis]

Ah, that's what the title is referring to. Of course also here in Germany the Pythagorean theorem is well-known , but I wouldn't have linked this to the level in the way you had in mind. One question: Will these levels be part of a pack?

[NieSch]

One question: Will these levels be part of a pack?

Yes, I would like to release a small packsome day including these levels. A fun one that's not too hard but still challenging for most players.

[Swerdis]

Can't play it at the moment since I'm off for holidays, but I will make up for it later. Looks nice.
