Lemmings Minecraft?

Chad Armstrong

I’d love to see a video about the CyberMan 3D Controller. I’ve been trying to get it to run on the floppy disk version of Quest for Glory: Shadows of Darkness, but trying to get it to work fully on modern hardware has not been a successful endeavor so far.

Never played 3D Lemmings but it looks horrendous.

LGR

Hm, well I've got my shots so I guess the clones by default have theirs

LGR

Yeah it's a fun throwback. Every year I say to myself that I'm going to update the new logo animation with a holiday theme, but I always go back to the old intro

LGR

The clones, they are LEGION

LGR

A modern 3D update would benefit it greatly! There are a lot of fascinating puzzles to solve but jeez are they frustrating here

I love the christmas episodes, and the clones are my favorite part of the Official LGR Lore. I wonder if there's other clones..? :D

One of my favourite things about advent starting is knowing there might be a Christmas Clones episode coming up. Hadn't heard of 3D Lemmings before, despite playing the originals excessively as a child! It seems otherwise good enough that a modern engine might really help with it?

Forget brown paper packages tied up with strings, LGR & Christmas are a few of my favourite things!!

Thank you for continuing the christmas videos :)

Man, that intro was hilarious.

Back then when 3D was the "new" thing you could tell a great amount of developers were more worried about getting into the trend than about doing it gracefully. On the one hand you'd have stuff like Duke Nukem 3D, that took the franchise into new heights, and on the other one you'd have stuff like Simon the Sorcerer 3D, which destroyed all the charm the series was known for. I'm so glad developers have stopped jumping into trends and only making their decisions based on critical thinking... Wait, what's this about Ubisoft selling NFTs? Oh, never mind.

Pablo Rodriguez

I mean... there's Bubsy 3D

Christmas clones are my and my wife’s favorite!

Yasss CHRISMAAASSSSS!

Ah, only when the Christmas clones invade is it ever truly Christmas. Also "early 3D camera" can give me some proper nightmares. D8

LOOOOVE Christmas LGR!

Novel

There are a lot of early 3D games that you look at and think "This could be OK" and then you play it for a few minutes and you realise that all charm and enjoyment was removed during the process. I cannot think of a game other than Lemmings 3D, that is quicker to give you this feeling. Just looking at the game for a nanosecond is enough for me to say "Oh god, what did they do." There are good 3D games with bad cameras; but L3D is the only game I can think of, where the puzzle IS the camera. I know some puzzle games have done this intentionally, but this is the only one that I know if that was completely accidental.

Oh yes! I am not ashamed to said that I was waiting for the xmas clone rendezvous of the year. Happy xmas in advance Clint!

Question: the clones got their covid shot or are they (un)naturally imune?

Blair Harrison

Delightful! Better watch where you put your floppy disks, who knows what those clones eat for christmas snacks :D

Deckard Games

Christmaaaaaas. Finally.

Cole Lepper

haven't heard a practice mode in a long time

Always gives me a warm feeling to see the Christmas intro, including the classic clicky-clacky title card. The new ones are great too, but it just gives me some good nostalgia of the halcyon days of 5 years ago.
