Re-using the uncontrollable lemmings feature (once it actually exists of course - it's currently planned for multiplayer) for the hero lemming challenge is a great idea. You could have a set number of regular-coloured "heroes" enter the level first, and the rest after that would be grey "neutrals". For an x-skills-per-lemming challenge, lemmings could turn into neutrals after they've used their allotment of skills.

Multiplayer? What Multiplayer? You mean Lix or... a new game??? 

I always had cool ideas!

Skills

Leapfrogger
Automatically jumps clifts, the leapfrogger also acts like a normal Lemming ( You can assign skills!)
It can get a bit annoying at times. It jumps then stops for a brief time just like the Frog Suit from Super Mario Bros 3.

Leaper
It can leap great heights without dying, the Lemming also says "Geronimo!" when he leaps.
When he reaches the ground, he gets stunned.

Batter
The Lemming retrieves a bat and swings it. It will smack any Lemmings in the way,
if a Lemming goes far enough, the Home Run theme will play. Also, any Lemmings that hit water, will skim.
HOME RUN!!!!Faner
A Lemming can place a fan in any direction ( 8 Directions.)
The fans can be used in MANY situitaions such as preventing fall damage, to blocking Lemmings
( It blows them away.) To give Lemmings extra speed or act as something that blows them up to higher places.
And the best part? They can be blown up like blockers! And if you really want too...
You can dig them out and they break!

Hadouken
The Hadouken is back baby! And better then EVER!!!
Now the Hadouken can eliminate traps, steel and land! And yes, the Lemming still says "Hadouken!"

Turner
The Turner returns from who knows how much years since 3D Lemmings was released.
It now acts like a One Way Blocker. Interesting is it?

Boxer
The Lemming receives a pair of red boxing gloves, it acts like a better basher, but it's faster
and has a bigger collision box.

Sponge
The Lemming gently tosses the sponge that absorbs any water that it touchs.

Gameplay Mechanics

Wrapping Around
The Lemmings can go around the level horizonaly, vertically or both.
It is marked on the level by a arrow on a blue square.

Super Lemming
The level goes faster. It is marked by a Super Lem preparing to fly on a red square.

Planet Mode
The Lemmings go around any land in orbit. It just like Lemmings with Magno Boots

Huge Lems

I wanted to make a new Lemming game and I don't know how much pixels a lemming can fall until it splats, i need the information from Lemmings , and Lemmings 2 (Stunned and Splatting)

I would be MIGHTY grateful if someone told me...

In fact, if someone told me that, I would incorerate a custom skill! Like this one i did right now!

Moonwalker


Pros: Like a turner, It's funny 

Cons: If it hits a wall, it will turn back into a Walker, Cannot assign skills to it.
