Lemmings on Cab
« on: July 27, 2004, 06:39:38 am »
one game i used to love was Lemmings on Amiga

is there version that would be playable on a cab with a trackball?

i see that mame has "Lemmings (US Prototype)" but how playable is it? what does being a prototype mean? does it only have a few screens?

Would PC version be better option? how Cab friendly is it? (i dont have keyboard attached)

Why not play the Amiga version on your cab?  :)

I agree. The Amiga version of Lemmings is one of my all time favourites, I never thought of putting it in a cab though and always had trouble with WinUae.
Thanks for the tutorial link!

As far as I can tell, it looks identical to the Amiga/PC version. Playing it with a trackball would be a bit akward though since you sometimes have to zip from one side of the killing field to another.
Now in a tasty new flavour.

In the meantime.. play lemmings in your browser

(i seem to remember the pc version of lemmings was playable with a gamepad, or rather had that option... you can find the pc version of lemmings on several *cough* abandonware sites)

there's also a java web version out there too...  ooh                lemmings on your symbian os cell phone
