Lemmus Lemmus by Zerot

[raw]
made by Zerot for LD28 (JAM)
Help guide the critter to the exit using the tools provided.

Climber and Parachute will give the item to the critter and he will use it when he can. However, those items can only be used once.


Didn't spend a whole lot of time on this entry, but it came out decently, I think. Only 4 levels though.

Made using unity using the new 2D tools.

Definitely a good start. It's not innovative, but lemmings are always fun. I'd liek to have seen more creative "abilities".

All you need to do now is make more levels! Great work!

This is probably the last kind of game I expected to see, but it works very well for the theme. A whole game of single-lemming style puzzles might be interesting.

You've managed to get some fairly interesting puzzles out of the limited set of tools you give the player. That kind of puzzle design is harder than it looks, so well done.

For things I didn't like as much, the timing of selecting the actions was a bit fiddly: you had to push the button slightly ahead of the time when you wanted the lemming to start. This makes problems like a lemming stuck in a narrow pit essentially random coin flips, which isn't much fun. Might help to look at the very deliberate pacing the original lemmings had; it made it easy to have very precise timing.

Hope this helps.

Weird idea, you took lemmings and abandon the good mecanics. Maybe with more level and difficulty i could have been better.

Gotta love Lemmings! Good use of the theme, too! With a few more levels and abilities you'd have a nice complete puzzler

It needs to be easier to select where and what surface you will be performing an action on. otherwise, good game!
