Walkthrough Videos

I've decided against making Walkthrough videos until the set is complete. The levels may change and the order definitely will.

I'm back from a visit to my "friend" so I shall be continuing the level creating.

Simon's Set v0.1.1

Well, here it is! The first version of the first set. The name is obviously going to change.

IMPORTANT: If you downloaded the previous v0.1, you MUST download v0.1.1, delete both files and extract them again. You can download the set, here.

Place the file in the "set" folder. Open the program, click the mouse and choose "Simon's" as the set. It's not necessary to play them in order, but they wouldn't be numbered if it wasn't recommended.

These are a BETA, so they're going to be polished up before they get released. Also, some may not even be completable, if they're not, comment here.

Walkthrough Videos after the break.

New Beginnings

You can download the game, here.

Well. Instead of wasting my time finding a place to put stuff, I decided to steal Man of Doom's idea and make a blog about it.

The Game
I'm sure most of you have heard of "Lemmings," and the sequels and clones it has created. In 1998 one Peter Spada created a clone that directly correlated with the original series. Aptly named "Cheapo Lemmings," the game is basically a rip of the old engine and updated for use with Windows. The game even works well with Windows 7.

Unfortunately, the game came with only the demo levels of Lemmings 1 and a few test levels.

The Editor
Bar the obvious advantages of having a working Lemmings game on Windows (especially 7), the game came with its own extremely powerful and customisable Editor. Choosing from the styles of Lemmings 1, Oh No! More Lemmings, Lemmings 2: Tribes and custom styles made by fans, it boosts easy creating, editing and placing of scenery, objects and death traps. With the amount of skills, stats, intro text and size to make easily customisable levels to share. You can even place levels you created in a "Set." These sets are groups of levels you wish to be played one after the other - although one drawback is that there isn't an option to disable levels to be play before the previous has been completed.


This Blog
I'm going to be posting news, information and my own sets and levels. Check back (or subscribe) from time to time to see levels and sets as they progress.
