There's a Gals Panic clone that, in addition to plagiarizing that controversial game, uses at least three melodies from the original Lemmings without attribution. The game in question is "Paradise," by the South Korean company Yun Sung Electronics, and it steals the songs tim5.mod, tim7.mod (AKA Mozart's Turkish March), and lemming3.mod from Lemmings.

Here is some gameplay from the game:

Here's the poll for voting the 12 levels from Pillar Tribe. My choices were:

-It's Lemmingentry Watson
-Cascade
-The Crankshaft
-If at first you don't succeed...
-The ascending pillar scenario
-Call in the bomb squad
-The Great Lemming Caper
-Save Me
-Fix the road, quick!
-Be sure to be a builder.
-Move on in two separate groups.
-Fall and no life (Part Two)

Well, I've started a new poll to see if people are interested in voting. The next tribe to be examined is the Pillar Tribe. Here's the link to the poll!:

Pillar Tribe: A Review

Forget Doric and Corinthian capitals: the really cool ones are Ionic. Everyone knows it, and of course, every lemming knows it! Especially those of the Pillar Tribe, seasoned archaeologists and fervent enthusiasts of ancient architecture.

Their love for ancient buildings and relics leads them to travel by sea wherever they can explore and admire the works of the past: Rome, Greece, and Egypt are their favorite vacation destinations. Oh, how they adore ruins! They're even excited about modern structures under construction!

If you want to get in touch with them, send them a postcard, or better yet, go and meet them in person. Don't even think about calling them! For some reason, they've developed a tremendous phobia of telephones, especially old-fashioned ones. How ironic! The shoemaker's children go barefoot!

It seems the Dirt Tribe poll has 7 votes up to this day. Here is a snapshot of the current 11 most voted levels:


5 votes
-------

Just Dig!
The Far Side

4 votes

Steel Works
The Steel Mines of Kessel
Rendezvous at the Mountain
Konnichiwa Lemming san [from Genesis/Mega Drive]

3 votes

This should be a doddle!
Watch out, there's traps about
Every Lemming for himself!!!
One way or another
And then there were four....


There are other 7 levels with 2 votes. The poll is still young (12 days), so there is still time to vote and gain a fair and consistent consensus. How long do you think it should last? One or two months? Should I start a new poll for the next tribe, in order to gain indirect interest on this one?

Tell me your thoughts  

I think there are too many lemmings! Although that's a major part of the level's difficulty. Perhaps a smaller skillset would improve it.

Great levels, harder than I expected! 

I like that NeoLemmix uses Master System music after a successful or failed level. I wonder if RetroLemmini would use them too. 

Quote from: WillLem on February 06, 2026, 01:08:17 PMHow about "Earth Tribe"?

Earth, soil, ground, land, terrain... There are indeed many synonyms! I named them Dirt because that was the codename of the style in the level editors 

Quote from: Proxima on February 06, 2026, 02:11:37 AMNice to see this getting started. I voted for:

Spoiler

And then there were four -- very cool multi-tasking level where some of the groups can help each other

Damn! I also like this level! How could I forgot to vote for it? Instead I gave my vote for "Through the graveyard", as the most complicated level of Dirt Tribe I could think of.

Quote from: namida on February 06, 2026, 09:37:20 PMI'm surprised The Far Side is getting as many votes as it is. I really like it, but I wouldn't have thought it would be a particularly popular level.

I mostly voted (as expected for me) for the ones I actually consider good levels, but Just Dig also got a vote on the grounds of how iconic it is.

I voted for both of them. I think "Just Dig!" is such an iconic level that simply can't be culled, despite its simplicity! But let's see how people vote and if it passes the cut! 

Quote from: namida on February 05, 2026, 04:43:19 AMMy votes would go to "Every Lemming For Himself", "Upside Down World", "How Do I Dig Up The Way?", "The Far Side" and "The Steel Mines Of Kessel". Maybe at a stretch, "One Way Or Another" too.

And I guess, not on level quality but simply how iconic it is, "Just Dig" has to be in there too.

I've created a poll for submitting your votes and the votes of whoever wishes to contribute here  :

Dirt Tribe: A Review

The Dirt Tribe has a frankly ambiguous and undeserved name! Just because the rodents of this tribe live in caves doesn't mean they live in filth!

The lemmings of this clan also enjoy strolls through the meadows, lakes, beaches, and cliffs near the caves where they usually stay. They are formidable dowsers, first-rate paleontologists, and expert hunters of wild animals, especially bears: that explains why there are occasionally bear traps around the places they visit. The problem is that they are usually so absentminded and forgetful that they end up falling into their own snares!

These natural-born speleologists also have other hobbies, such as metrology. They love the Metric System! But you'd better help them get out of their cavern before they try to figure out their total weight with the help of their giant 10-ton scale!

we have 41 candidates for, in principle, 12 Dirt Tribe levels. Or maybe more, if we combine Snow and Xmas tribes.

So let's begin. Should I post a poll in another thread to choose which of these 41 levels we should select for the Dirt Tribe? And then move into the next tribe.

(On another note, I am writing a little of ficticious information and history for this and the rest of the tribes, in order to give them a little background. Hope you like it, I'll post it soon  )

Thank you, I was using the pack from the first post. Didn't see the updated one on post #12 

I am playing the RetroLemmini version of Pimolems, and it seems to have troubles with exits in (for now) Spring Break (just a bridge to the left at the beginning to a partially visible exit and you finish the level in seconds), and Up to the Abacus (no exit at all). Maybe is an issue due to styles revision 2.2 in RetroLemmini, as it happened recently with Lemmings Plus I?

I'm preparing a poll to choose the levels for the Dirt Tribe, for now. To do this, of course, I first need to gather all the levels from every possible port, and that will take some time. For now, here's the list of levels from the original Amiga/DOS game:
