We came roaming in long lines
Through the ancient lands of our forebears
Barefoot and empty-handed
And rested in the lengthening shadows of their desolate temples
Knowing that they had been as we were
Builders, diggers, and strivers

absolutely obsessed with this treatment of the Lemmings

I'm trying to get across the weird feeling Lemmings gave me that as far as I can tell was absolutely not the intent of the creators.

this rules. i always did love the loose gestures at a fictional world implied in "The Tribes". https://www.mobygames.com/game/1603/lemmings-2-the-tribes/screenshots/dos/8511/

Appreciate this to although, despite this art it's hard for me to picture them doing anything but like, tripping from dimension to dimension across some kind of broken reality.

JP @vectorpoem7/15/2023, 4:02 PM

agreed, that was definitely the idea the first game's level progression gave me.

Jumping through doors forever- through ruins and swamps and crystal caverns and literal hells but never reaching that green pasture they can see in the distance 😔

yeah, the few dozen pixels of blue sky and green fields we see through the portals captivated me as a kid... like their journey is taking them through relatively peaceful grasslands interrupted by occasional, unavoidable treks into great danger...
