I had the privilege of working with Mike Dailly and Russell Kay (and Dave Jones) last year.
Mike and I (and Bill who did the physics for GTA) made a 3D lemmings-like prototype with 100,000 blue & green zombies in a city-like environment. And a cute tank :)
It started (as Lemmings did) with Mike just fooling about trying to see how many sprites he could get animating on screen at once. He managed 1,000,000 of the original lemmings sprites walking around on modern hardware.
Sigh. Happy days.
- moe 16y agoThere actually was an official "Lemmings 3D" in which you could even switch to the first person view of individual lemmings. Unfortunately apart from the novelty factor the game-play was pretty bad, nowhere near the 2d lemmings. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAeFxDbNTsA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAeFxDbNTsA
- jamesgeck0 16y agoLemmings Revolution was pretty fun. The 3D was almost superfluous, of course, but it was a neat way to retain the 2D gameplay while looking modernish.
