This topic is for discussion, posting replays, etc. If you're an entrant and you want to update any of your levels, please post in the updates topic. The ZIP attached to this post will be updated periodically, but until the update phase has closed, you should also keep an eye on that topic if you want to be sure you have the latest versions.

So, we all know how this works by now. Here's your levels, play them, upload replays, creators have a chance to fix any backroutes that arise, etc.

Two ZIPs here. One has the levels; the other has some custom musics for a few levels. A couple are variations on regular musics, but use non-standard names ("beast2" and "menacing", where the standard names are "beastii" and "menace"). Place these in a "music" subfolder of your NeoLemmix folder.

Rule 1 Entries (Create a level using only new skills in NeoLemmix or Lix)
Flopsy86's "Tell me the way to DMA..." (NeoLemmix)
IchoTolot's "A Silent Scream" (NeoLemmix)
mobius's "Terminal Velocity" (NeoLemmix)
Nepster's "All the Nines" (NeoLemmix)
Rubix's "Waiting For The Answer" (Lix)

Rule 2 Entries (Create a level with only one lemming / lix)
Colorful Arty's "The Tale of Sir Lemalot" (SuperLemmini*)
IchoTolot's "Lonely Drowning In Blood" (NeoLemmix)

Rule 3 Entries (Create a level with exactly two types of skills)
Apjjm's "Thrown Out With The Bathwater" (NeoLemmix)
Colorful Arty's "Freeze, ya Lemmings!" (SuperLemmini*)
Gronkling's "Zig-Zag Catacomb" (NeoLemmix)
IchoTolot's "Welcome To The Spider Dance!" (NeoLemmix)
mobius's "The Copenhagen Interpretation" (NeoLemmix)
Nepster's "Assault on the Helicopter" (NeoLemmix)

* Colorful Arty has mentioned that although designed for SuperLemmini, his levels should work fine on Lemmini too.

I'll assume that by now everyone knows how to play these levels, but if not, just ask.
Do note that many of the NeoLemmix levels use custom graphic sets. All used graphic sets are among the ones that can be auto-downloaded as needed, so the easiest way to get them is to simply turn "Enable Online Functionality" on in NeoLemmix. If however you don't feel comfortable with this, or play on a PC that doesn't have an internet connection, you'll need:
- Several of IchoTolot's converted L2 / L3 styles
- Gronkling's "BeastII" and "Menace" styles
Place these in a "styles" subfolder of your main NeoLemmix folder (or if you go through the editor, place them in the "styles/NeoLemmix" folder).

The update phase will be open until 16th April (subject to the usual extension rule), and the playing phase will close 4 days after the update phase ends.

ZIP last updated: 27th March, 3:14 PM.

All finished.
As I played this on my laptop, ubuntu put the replays together automatically in a .tar.gz file. I dont know if windows can easily open this. Tell me if you have problems as I try to reattach them in a zip or rar file in this case.
Reattached it as a zip.

Nice speed solving all these, im gonna play a couple each day.

Yea looks like your solve for : Tell me the way to DMA was a backroute also.  I used all skills to complete it.     
Enjoyed what I have played today.

Replay attached for what I believe was his intended solution.



As for your solve on my lix level, very smart, and completely unintended, though it was good to see it took all the skills also.
Can anyone find the intended solution though.

Another nice idea, and still nothing like the intended Prox   
Backroutes, plauging us all since the beginning of time.

My solutions to all the NX levels, I'll try the updates tomorrow and fix backroute(s) on my level, and may do the non-NX levels at some point.

Solutions to 3 levels. I did do V1 of Apjjm's level but that's obsolete now.

IchoTolot's Lonely Drowning in Blood
mobius's The Copenhagen Intervention
Gronkling's Zig Zag Catacomb.

Will have a proper look at other levels over the next few days.

Solution to Gronkling's V4. (Wow... never thought a backrouted level would be that easy to solve, let alone from a user who's not usually involved in LDC levels)
