A while back I was replaying Lemmings 2. I managed to rescue quite a few of the tribes (but only silver), and I'm stuck on a number of levels. This is what my talisman currently looks like.

Back in the 1990s I managed to complete this with gold on everything. However it was a "less than legal" version and I discovered that one of the disks was missing, which had the winning animation on it - so I never got to see it. Piracy doesn't pay, kids.

Lemmings on the ZX Spectrum Next. I took this not long after I got mine in 2020.

A series of pictures I made to decorate the bathrooms in Hotel Indigo Dundee. The hotel's decoration is heavily influenced by Dundee's history, and I was asked to create something that incorporated Lemmings, a video game franchise that originated in the city.

From Lemmings to auto-theft.

I think it's close enough to Christmas for me to post this now.

This was a poster a friend gave me randomly. I'm not familiar with the magazine/comic it came from (Big Fun?).

I picked this up in a charity shop some time ago and was trying to run it on Windows 95 with no luck. Just happened upon this guide which says it works on Windows 10 - ran through it and played the first couple of easy levels. It does work!

No scrolling required!

Another day, another level of Lemmings! This one is rather simple.

Another day, another level of Lemmings!

Another day, another level of Lemmings! This time I added some CRT shaders and it looks much better.

Why YSK

One Of Lemmy's creators mentioned it as part of the inspiration for the name, so it's a nice dive to play the game.

Per Wikipedia

In a 2020 post, Lemmy's co-creator Dessalines wrote about the origin of the name Lemmy. "It was nameless for a long time, but I wanted to keep with the fediverse tradition of naming projects after animals. I was playing that old-school game Lemmings, and Lemmy (from Motorhead) had passed away that week, and we held a few polls for names, and I went with that."
