This time, this should be intended  :thumbsup: (plus a similar but backroute-ish alternative solution ;P )

These look mostly intended, except for autopilot level ???

You are indeed correct, well done! :thumbsup:

I have updated 'Autopilot' once again, adding steel. Hopefully this will finally fix it! :forehead: (As before, intended replays should be unaffected)

Fine resolves here  8-) I loved your method for passing under the E in Neo 1!

All are definitely acceptable as intended, except maybe One 5.


Spoiler
One 5 Blues : Using nuke seems mandatory indeed because not enough destructive skills. Your solution with flooding a chain then nuke and block near the exit does work, though it could certainly save more than one with a little tweaking and luck.
Maybe I'll work a little more on that, but the number of ways to reach the exit is so big that I'm scared I cannot counter them all.

Intended solution uses the whole level, and control the lemmings so that it is quite impossible to miss the nuke part.

resolved updated levels  8-)
Spoiler
Eon2, Eon5 - look intended for me now :laugh:
Neo1 - probably intended? since you said the intended solution is counter intuitive and I made the turn-around point farther and save more time as a result.
One2 - looks intended :laugh:
One5 - another nuke solution.. I'm pretty sure the intended solution has some kind of nuke interaction in it to compensate the lack of destructive skills, but I'm not sure if this is the one you intended. ???

Level 4 has me stuck for now : cannot access the upper part yet, and actually not sure what the twirling DNA shaped thing is ?
Clearview mode shows me a much needed floater pickup, but is unclear about the twirling DNA thing.
Very nice solutions, well done! :thumbsup:

The swirling DNA thing is:

a skill adder, it will change any lemming that passes through it into that skill.

Oh yes nice. This Neo 1 is very open ended, lots of solutions indeed. It is a miracle no one managed to save more than one yet...

Building the gap between O and N is a great time saver for sure. This solution is not really a problem to me, except that it breaks the talisman which I thought was only accessible with a kind of counter intuitive solution.
It may happen that I prevent this build from O to N some days, lets see how things turn out.

My replay for Neo_1 broke so I had to find a new solution which fulfils the talisman + does not use 3 of the skills. Probably another backroute. :evil:

Hey there Armani,

Now this is a great moment for me when you solve my levels, as I remember I had a so tough time solving yours in Holiday Lemmings 2024!

Thank you for playing and for the kind words on the levels, I hope you enjoyed your time here. It is true that SMS took me a long time to set up properly. IchoTolot found a lot of backroutes that were not as cool as the intended solution you found.

You solved all of them levels brilliantly, and discovered some other backroutes/alternate solutions of course, details under spoiler :

Spoiler
Eon 2 Trust Your Lucky Star ? Nice trick to let them compress and clear 2 bars at once with a single miner. I'd rather player to bash through the last structure, then figure out how to save the climber. You can do this even with saving a skill for the talisman.
So I just moved the trap one bar to the right to prevent your solution.

Eon 5 Four Shruggers Real Backroute there, you're not supposed to reach exit using a single Lem ! Interaction is better so I worked on the chains again to prevent using the 4 bridges with the upmost lemming to exit on his own.

Neo 1 One Hot Minute Backroute again, not supposed to be able to bomb the way through the E by going the upper route. I put the star some pixels higher to prevent this.

One 2 Aquarium Deception Oh no ! Saving 70 Lems here ! My bad, going above the shredders was supposed to be a splat fall. Level is way too easy like this, I set the splat again.

One 3 Clappy Clapple First solution is intended. Second is very fine too though more tricky. It again shows how Release Rate and compressing lemmings can be powerful in this game, good job ! Level did not change.

One 5 Blues Nice solution too, you went through very little pixel and hard timing to get there I'd say ! Though I will consider it a backroute as you dont use most of the level and it looks like you got quite lucky at the end that the 2 survivors were close enough to reach exit like you did.
I made little change here again, can you find intended ? It is more straightforward and a bit easier to execute I think, you're not very far actually.

I changed the pack in the first post to block those backroutes in Eon 2, Eon 5, Neo 1, One 2, One 5, sorry if it breaks replays already given.
