I bought a Wii U with Super Mario Maker last week. Me and my brother played Mario Maker for over 22 hours already It's a great game. It has quite a few flaws, but for what it is, it's incredibly well done.
It's really fun to create levels. If only more people would play them... :3 (nobody has beaten any of my levels yet, I made them very challenging )

I've been considering getting one, but it's very expensive at the moment.

I'm ok to add the behaviour players prefer.

So what's your preference when triggering a Walker ?
- 1) always turn around (as it is in the current WIP version)?
- or 2) act as in Lix and NeoLemmix: only turn around if already walking? (otherwise just stop the action being performed)

Your call!

I'd think 2 would be better. I'm no expert, though.

Hm... if there would be stepped away more from the original Lemmings interface, a big part of the feel would most dertainly be lost... but it could perhaps make things easier to navigate and understand. Still though, I think the feel is important, too.

I set the priority of the chrome.exe process to Realtime, and then it worked wonderfully!
The first few times I did the same as most other people, but after I had figured out the beginning, the rest wasn't too difficult either. And it was fun! It did take me a lot of time, though. Getting the water and Gnomes up slopes is quite tedious, but I didn't mind it. Seriously, those stupid beings will sometimes turn around for one pixel high of a slope! >.> But oh well, I pushed them up there, using sand. I saved 2 Gnomes, I don't remember where the others died.
As to the music: this and this are examples of what I made, so you know about what to expect. I like chiptune, so if I can find good samples, I might indeed go for that style. The Egyptian tune is slightly cliché, but if remixed/improvised on enough, it might be a good theme (I mean, most of Lemmings themes have cliché songs as the base, but in my opinion the soundtrack is great). I'll try going with that as inspiration for sure, perhaps even incorporating the entire tune (not that I have time to do it now, the new school year is starting for me in somewhat over an hour).

Very nice!
Didn't the beach tileset already exist for NeoLemmix, though?

I spot a You need bashers this time reference

Ah, I just missed it, came home from vacation late yesterday. I hope I'll be able to join the next round!
