Long Live Lemmings! (30 levels) [Difficulty: Easy-Hard]
« on: July 08, 2021, 06:14:56 AM »
Hurray! My second level pack is here. :)



Long Live Lemmings!

- For NeoLemmix v12.12 (or higher)
- 30 levels equally divided into Fun, Tricky, Taxing, Mayhem and Bonus
- Classic skills + (new) NeoLemmix skills including the jumper and slider
- Original Lemmings, ONML and Xmas Lemmings styles and music + music from the "original original soundtrack" that was found on a Lemmings demo disk
- Difficulty: for everyone!


Tricky 1: Spoilt for Choice


Taxing 1: You Better Watch Out


Taxing 6: All in Good Timing


Mayhem 1: Symmetry for the Devil

Thanks to all who played and gave feedback on the (contest) levels that I released earlier. :)
Lots of thanks to Armani for playtesting all levels and finding backroutes. You've been a great help! :thumbsup:

Wow, looks great! Congrats on the release of your second level pack. By Armani's suggestion/recommendation, I will be LPing this pack, just like I did with your Yippee! More Lemmings from last year. I will let you know when I get around to it. It's not going to be for a while, since I have some other level packs that I'm currently prioritizing.

In regards to the title, I'm going to assume that it's in honor of the 30th anniversary of Lemmings this year?

It is! And I "stole" the title from this great ad for ONML, drawing by Adrian Powell:

Congratulation for releasing the second pack! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
It was really fun and honor to be the pre-tester for this pack.


Like NieSch's first pack "Yippee! More Lemmings", it only uses styles from original game but features brand new Neolemmix skills.(including slider which was implemented just today :lem-mindblown:)
The difficulty is beginner friendly at the first rank, increases at a nice rate and there're some tough nuts for even expert solvers toward the end.
So, I definetely recommend giving this pack a go for everyone. You can enjoy great level desinging skills and puzzles by NieSch as usual. :D

Hi Niesch,

I'm very close to getting to your pack. This is next on my to-play list, once I finish up Integral Lemmings, so it all depends on how long that pack takes me :) I can't imagine it taking too long, particularly since it's only 20 levels, and I've already managed to solve the first 5 levels. Currently stuck on the 6th level, but I think I can get myself unstuck, just need more time to think about it.

I'm looking forward to playing the levels with the new skill(s) when I get to your pack! Should be a fun LP for both you and Armani to watch

Hi Niesch,

I'm just posting to let you know that I've started LPing this pack just today, so as promised here's the link to my LP: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbp2m4KlFpJvOc1YVa8xSUjK293Q9HYSA. Enjoy! :P

I've also completed the first two ranks, so here are my replays and feedback.

General Feedback

Great pack that I'm enjoying with what I've seen so far. None have been extremely hard so far, so I definitely can see what you mean when you told me that you "feel" it's easier than Yippee! More Lemmings, although both the Fun and the Tricky ranks weren't exactly lightning fast solves. Then again, I was stuck on that final level of Tricky for a time in your first pack, so maybe overall I am having a somewhat easier time with LLL! I'm sure that will all change with Taxing and Mayhem, especially since I remember the huge jump in difficulty going from even Fun to Tricky and even more once entering the Taxing rank in Yippee! More Lemmings.

So far, I think there have only been 5 levels featuring the slider, with the hardest one so far I felt was Fun 4. Certainly the one I like the best so far featuring the slider is Fun 2. There was one level that I didn't use it, so that might be a backroute.

Fun Rank Feedback

Nice puzzles here, although I wouldn't exactly say any were super easy. However, the Fun rank of this pack felt somewhat easier or about the same difficulty as the fun rank of Yippee! More Lemmings.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)


Tricky Rank Feedback

The levels here were pretty much about the same level of difficulty as the Fun levels, maybe only a bit higher.

Looking forward to starting again soon and seeing how I get on with the remainder of the pack. Great one and awesome that Armani suggested/recommended me to LP this pack of yours, Niesch! ;)

I solved the rest of the pack, i.e, the Taxing, Mayhem, and Bonus ranks. I'm back with more replays and feedback :)

Taxing Rank Feedback

Levels are a bit harder here, and this was the first rank that I didn't get completely solved in just one video.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)


Mayhem Rank Feedback

Even harder levels here, although I interestingly didn't struggle as much here as I did in the Taxing rank. Probably because there are no slider levels in this rank!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Bonus Rank Feedback

For levels in a rank called "Bonus," these were quite difficult!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

With the completion of this pack, I must say job well-done for your second pack, Niesch! Thank you for this, and also thanks to Armani for suggesting/recommending this pack for me to LP due to his pretesting of the pack. Just like Yippee! More Lemmings, LLL! may be a short pack, but don't expect it to be a quick solve. Niesch's levels are characterized by being challenging, so that even people like me still take a while to solve them. However, I definitely enjoyed the challenges within, and I don't mind hard levels, as these are the types of levels I prefer to play/solve. I especially enjoyed playing with the slider skill in this pack. It's almost been a year since I've played levels with either of the new skills, although it's been even longer since I haven't played any laserer levels. That will all change once I start playing Armani's pack.

Glad you're doing well and that you're enjoying my LP very much! :) As usual, I look forward to reading your feedback/remarks on my solution, either here, on my LP videos, or both!

Update: V3.0, see first post for downloads (level pack and updated solutions).

Changes: I've added an extra Bonus level.


Bonus 5: All the Good Lems go to Hell

Style: SMS Fire

At first I made this level for the current level design contest, but I made a mistake and found out it doesn't fit any of the rules (that I haven't made a previous entry for). So instead of making it a contest entry I include it in this pack.

Also included in the zip file of the pack is a custom music track for this level. It's an 8Bit version of Billie Eilish's "All the Good Girls go to Hell" made by this YouTuber.

Update: V3.1, see first post for downloads (level pack and updated solutions).

Armani and I hade a nice backroute/update battle over my latest bonus level.

Armani won. :crylaugh:

So even though Armani still has alternative solutions to the level (I can't call them backroutes really!) I put in an updated version of it that eliminates a lot of other easier backroutes.

Also I changed the order of the Bonus level rank a bit.

Now the pack contains 29 levels. Since Long Live Lemmings! is a bit about celebrating 30 year of Lemmings I think I'll add a final bonus level later this year to make it a nice 30 levels in total. :)

Edit: Update: V3.2 (Red arrow in latest Bonus level moved 1 pixel to the left)

Update: V4.0, see first post for downloads (level pack and updated solutions).

Changes: I've added an extra Bonus level and changed the order of the levels in the Bonus rank. The new level is Bonus 1.


Bonus 1: Dr Lemminggood's Latest Invention

Style: SMS Marble

This is the 30th and definitely the final level for the pack, no more levels will be added. Future updates will only be backroute fixes and stuff like that. :)

Edit: Update: V4.1 (An aesthetic matter of 1 pixel in the latest level)

Thanks for playing Icho! Hope you enjoyed it. I'm quite relieved it's only 5 levels I have to find backroute fixes for. Could have been a lot worse. ;)
