Title: Original lemmings height finally discovered
Post by: Gronkling on December 09, 2020, 01:10:26 PM

Based on years of research I can finally reveal the height of a lemming in the original game

However by Oh-No, it seems the shrunk, being smaller than a chameleon, then by lemmings 2, they were even smaller than things like a toy spade, and about the same size as a bee.

Nice job figuring this out! :thumbsup:

However, what made you focus on the chameleon specifically when it came to ONML? Why not compare them to any other trap, e.g. a buzzsaw, as it appears on the Brick tileset? :P

Perhaps their size is consistent (at least within the L1-era games) and the gravestones are specifically made to be lemming-sized?

Lemmings die too much to have gravestones so they MUST the same size as in real life, because as we all know, lemmings is filmed live in the real world
