Hi everyone,

I have just uploaded a new version of the Fizzles demo and I am looking for testers.

Fizzles is a cute 2D puzzle rescue game inspired by classic "save the little creatures" gameplay, but with its own visual style and modern touch controls. The current demo includes five playable levels, each introducing or testing a different ability.

This new version includes several fixes and improvements based on previous feedback:

- fixed overlapping/double dialogs
- improved Level 1 tooltip and Fizzle selection
- fixed Level 3 stopper selection
- improved the HUD direction arrow from Fizzle counter to exit counter
- fixed stopper placement so stoppers can no longer be placed partly in the air
- cleaned up the Level 5 bridge behavior
- improved visual feedback for assigned abilities
- added new level music
- added new success intermission scenes between levels

I would especially appreciate feedback on:

- whether the early tutorial levels are clear
- whether ability assignment is understandable
- whether the HUD is readable
- whether Level 5 feels fair and playable
- any bugs, confusing moments or visual issues

You can play the current version here:

Any feedback is welcome. Even short comments like "Level 1 was clear" or "I got stuck in Level 5" are very helpful.

Yay! I'm sure a few of us are ready for more Lemfan Levels!

I am happy to release my second Lemmings Rundown pack. This pack has been in the making for about a month, and I am happy that I have finally finished it.

The pack contains 150 levels with 5 ranks, each containing 30 levels. The ranks have the same names as in Lems One: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Chocolate.

The difficulty of this pack is easier than Lemmings Rundown I. The first two ranks are just X-of-everything levels, but steps up considerably by the middle of the third rank.

This pack has no NeoLemmix skills, eg. stoner, glider etc.

The real challengers come in the 4th and 5th rank (Platinum and Chocolate), with some fairly hard puzzles.

The music for this pack is the same as in Lemmings Plus I, which is the Sega Master System levels.

Great to see your progress and good luck further on the road! 

So far everything has been intended or acceptable variantions of the solution. 

I'm not quite sure if I knew what I did when I got involved in this pack. The first rank alone was pretty a challenge. But there is no way back. "Neutrality" seems a bit of an understatement, considering the next 41 levels. But here we go.

Spoiler

Neutrality

1 - Mysterious Glide

Hard level for me to start off, despite the very limited skillset. The key question is how to pass the exit with the pioneer because the rest of the solution seemed to be pretty clear. But this detail took pretty long time to figure out.

2 - Let it Krachen!

Nice title and a fantastic level. For me, the biggest challenge was to find the right spots to bomb through the wooden construction at the right side - for only two platformers are allowed to be used to build through the holes. A falling bomber is necessary to make the crowd walk to the left - this is a great idea as well.

3 - Arkon

With two platformers and builders only, it seems pretty impossible to bring the Lemmings up to the exit. The solution is very precise and does not allow any wasted skill. Because of the fiddliness not a favourite of mine.

4 - Move Beach! Get Out The Way!

This is a mean level. But sometimes it's the little details of the territory that help - the handle of a bucket or something like that.

5 - A Wizard Is Never Late!

Great level which is all about the right timing. For the Digger to land safely, it is sufficient for the Builder to place a single step. Took me a while to select the right Lemmings for the basher and the digger, though. Also, a very nice tune here.

Thanks for the kinds words and compliments!

Just a quick update here, and that is in addition to updating the level completion counter from 21/125 to 22/125, after some thinking, yea, I don't know what I was thinking That "Mass Suicide" level is way too difficult to be the third level of the pack, let alone a first rank one. If anything, it's more of either a second or third rank level and is probably similar in difficulty to the 1-of-everything Marble level in the second rank of Lemmings Reunion. I'm certain my level's nowhere near as hard as Pieuw's level for which the title is a reference though  

So, I've made a replacement level for "Mass Suicide" that should be a lot easier


A Classic Biolab Bootup

update July 11, 2026: Reuploaded image to fix backroute I discovered

This level was inspired by the first level of Icho's Lemmings United pack, "Biolab Bootup." Like Icho's level, it's a 1-of-everything and is meant to be a quick review for players on how the classic 8 skills of the game work before I throw in easier X-of-everythings that will follow later in the rank Even then, I still threw in a few extra punches and gotcha's into the level you need to be careful of

"Mass Suicide" doesn't do its intended purpose as a quick review for players on what the classic 8 skills of the game do, as it demands some advanced stuff and goes beyond what they do that makes it way too difficult, even for a 1-of-everything

Thank you for your amazing support as always!    

Quote from: Pieuw on July 08, 2026, 12:52:31 PMKeep up the good work kaywhyn! Seems like we got similar ways of working on our Lemmings projects: very slowly and sporadically

Indeed, our stuff is ready when it's ready The nice thing about taking our packs slow is that it generally means a higher quality pack in the end

Quote from: Nessy on July 09, 2026, 01:50:12 AMThese levels look fantastic! Keep up the good work!

I also love reading your detailed thought processes on how you adapted your inspirations into your own levels. I think it ties nicely into the pack's themes, but in this case, the memories you formed playing other levels

Yup, excellent observation! That is indeed what's been happening with the first rank level material I've completed so far, being based and inspired by levels from other level packs I've already stated it to you, but there's a few Lemmings Destination levels that have inspired some levels of my own that I'll be making for my Lemmings Memories pack!    

Quote from: IchoTolot on July 10, 2026, 02:33:59 PMOk, as this is intended, here is my replay!   

Again, a very nice level! 

That was superb. I´ll hope most peoples try attempt that itself before load that replay. Just never give up. Decimation is level where only few persons can figured out it. Its very complivated.

I am very glad you did figured out it yourself. Its absolutely great. Only take one hour. That was fast. I´ll plan that level 2 year.
