It's a really ugly Lemmings clone... you need the Java Runtime Environment to execute the ".jar" file.

The terrain on that screenshot looks bad.

It's odd how they used a real graphic from Lemmings for the exit (and entrance I guess), but made the lemmings themselves look absolutely horrible. Look at their ugly pumpkin faces! Surely they could make less ugly terrain than that... They couldn't even get the order of the tools right on the toolbar :P

Ah well, they get an 'F' for Effort :P

Someone mentioned somewhere that they were making a lemmings clone in java...I think it was mindless.

Mindless started this thread saying there was a bad lemmings clone. Obviously they have made the lemmings look ugly and everything else I see on the screenshot looks revolting!

No, 0xdeadbeef is making a Java Lemmings clone, and (s)he'll be using the original Lemmings graphics, so it won't even come close to being this horrid.

This is in no way mine, and if it was, I would deny it anyway.  O_o

It's good to keep in mind that artistic ability and programming ability are two separate things.  Clearly this jLemming project needs some help from people who can draw.  (Yes, I know you're thinking, why not just rip the graphics?  Well for starters, some people might want to respect copyrights, especially for open source projects)

Interestingly, the icons on the skills toolbar are strangely reminicent of the Team17 remake!  I mean, the shovel, the ax, the umbrella......

Maybe those who don't like the Team17 skills toolbar should serious point the Team17 guys to this screenshot, that'll get them to redo their own skills toolbar quick.  :D ;P (j/k)
