You asked for more levels from me, so you're getting more levels from me! :D
Planned Features:
- 30 levels split across 3 ranks--27 levels (8 of them repeats) made as of 13 FEB 2026
- Similar difficulty to Sweet 'N' Sour Lemmings (https://www.lemmingsforums.net/index.php?topic=7243.0)
- A focus on original skills and tilesets with some limited use of other skills/tilesets
- More music composed/arranged by me!
Here's some levels I've already made (which are, of course, subject to change as backroutes are found or if I later decide to scrap some):

"Polar Vortex"fourhorsemen.png
"The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse"theserpent.png
"The Serpent"No promises on a release window (or even meeting my own goals), but I will try to give updates on my progress somewhat regularly and answer any questions/consider any suggestions.
If anyone is interested in being a playtester, not just for finding backroutes but also for providing difficulty feedback, shoot me a PM!
Glad to hear you're making more levels, I still really enjoyed Sweet n Sour Lems.
Let me know when you finish the pack and I'll definitely give this one a go! :thumbsup:
Hello there The Tomato Watcher,
Glad to hear you're working on a new level pack, I had fun with Sweet and Sour !
If the difficulty is indeed the same in your new pack, then I volunteer to playtest it for some time before release. Please shoot me a pm any time you like to see how we can work this out.
This is so neat! I'd very much like to help test your pack, but there's one in the works on my end, a collab with Armani. But the best I can do is wish you best of luck with your level pack! :) I'll play it when it's finished. :thumbsup:
Little progress update: scrapped 1 level, made 6 more for a total of 19 out of 30! :D
Here's a few previews:

Here's hoping I don't run out of ideas anytime soon :P
These look brilliant. I'm really looking forward to playing them.
I can feel another Lemmings binge coming on... I feel it in me waters...

I'm also looking forward to playing the new Tomato Watcher levels, and playtest them if he still needs some testers.
Moderate difficulty is definitely my cup of tea from time to time, especially considering I'm stuck on Fiat Lems! and Quest From Kieran at the moment.
btw weirdybeardy I had a lot of fun playing your pack recently. I made a 16 levels pack myself with the twist mechanic of "you can only save one lemming", see my sig. Feel free to try it for a short binge to get back to Lemmings !
Thanks Guigui - I'll definitely give yours a try! I'd like to create some more levels of my own at some point, but in the mean time I have pro creators like yourself and Tomato to inspire me. :thumbsup:
Another progress update! We're now up to 27 levels!
Here's just one more preview to avoid spoiling over half the pack :P This pair of repeats is based on one of my earliest contest levels, and it's safe to say I've come a long way since then ^^ (at least in terms of gameplay--in terms of aesthetics I'm about the same as I was years ago).

I've also now got 8 tracked music files to play in the levels, some of which are my own compositions and some of which are covers of others' works, including a piece from one of my friends (used with their permission, of course), which is awesome. I'm very excited to release this pack! Not so excited that I'm gonna rush it, of course--as cool as it would be to release the pack on Lemmings's 35th anniversary, the final 3 levels and finishing touches will need a bit more time than that. :P
