Lepicons

As a kid one of the first games I was able to play on my dad's Pentium 100 was Lemmings. I believe it might've been a demo on a floppy disk but I was fascinated by the idea and on how hard it was, at least for a 9 year old. To be honest, I haven't played it since so I tried to make a game of how I remember the classic Lemmings was, I don't want to go check how the original game actually worked or looked, I wanted to do it using only my sweet (and maybe distorted) memories as a guide. So please forgive me if it doesn't actually feel like Lemmings. I've done it as an entry for "One Game a Month" using PICO-8.

The game is quite simple, take the lepicons from one portal to another using themselves as tools, or even sacrificing some for a greater good.

Controls: (are explained in game as well)

• Arrows move the cursors
• Z changes the action to be applied (check the bar on the bottom)
• X applies the action to the lepicon closest to the cursor
