I seem to remember a level review topic on the one of the old forums. It worked in the same way that the Levelpack Topics work, but using the original levels in all games. Even if it didn't exist, I think it'd be nice to see what people liked / loathed in the original version. It'd help level designers create levels suited to other peoples' taste and not just their own.
Obviously, levels work differently on different versions, so there might be a bit of debate over some points! I'm sure we can review significantly different levels, and console exclusive levels at a later date. I'm going to start by reviewing the
DOS version!
To help you all review, I have uploaded all of the level images. The images are all located
in this folder, I will create a nice gallery for them soon, but not today! (I've been informed that these are AMIGA screenshots.. they look pretty much the same, and were in a folder called DOS on my PC, so that's an error on my part. I'll change them in due course, but you won't need to modify your posts when I do!
Here is the link for the Genesis images.RULES:1. Only one level can be reviewed at any one time. We'll work in order from Fun through to Mayhem on the DOS version firstly, then move onto other consoles.
2. You cannot review two in a row, even across difficulties and consoles.
Reviews should be formatted like this:Console Name - Level Number - TITLE
PICTURE
Number of Lemmings
Number of Lemmings Required (% and total)
Release Rate
Time
Skills
Good - The stuff that made the level good.
Bad - The stuff which makes you want to scream!
I think that's about it, so let's get reviewing!
