Lemmings DS by Team LemProject is an open source port of the original Lemmings on the Amiga console. The game features all 220 levels from both the original Amiga Lemmings and Oh-No! More Lemmings.

This DS homebrew features quite a few things that make life easier for those who want to run it, such as DLDI support. In addition to that, fans of the series will also appreciate the automatic progress saving and the map editor.

The only major change in this version is a bug fix for Tactics. No other details were given so we just have to assume that said problem's been fixed. Be sure to read the included text file after decompressing the file to get more details on how to get the program up and running on your DS.

Just when we all thought the homebrew game Lemmings DS for Nintendo's handheld wasn't going to get any more exciting, the Team LemProject emerges with Lemmings DS DLDI alpha version, or simply Lemmings DS version 5.

In this latest version of the homebrew game, the developer says that the level system works differently. There are now two level categories, Standard and Custom. The old levels won't work with this version once you've opened the compressed rar file into the root of your card. If old levels are copied into the directories, Lemmings DS will just ignore those old levels. The dev promises to make a converter so old levels will work with version 5 though.

Oh, and take note that the developer has only tried the Lemmings DS DLDI alpha with his SuperCard SD.

For those who just got their brand-spankin' new DS Lites (and Phats!) and still aren't very knowledgeable when it comes to playing homebrew games on their units, DLDI basically means Dynamically Linked Disc Interface. This will allow homebrew programs to read and write files on the memory card inserted in one of the unit's system slots. This is why the dev asks everyone to back up before running the program.

Enjoy Lemmings DS version 5. Make sure to let the developer know if you've encountered bugs and other weird things in this latest version so he can fix it for maximum enjoyment.

Hate that bug that causes intermittent crashes between the level select and level info screens in v3.1 of Lemmings DS? Well, fret no more cos the TeamLem Project has already terminated that bug.

Oh, alright. So maybe some of you may not have noticed it. But just in case you're interested to know how that bug affected the course of things in the game, for the mere thrill of finding trivia, then you may compare the sources between this new version and the latest previous one.

Anyhow, for all other pertinent must-know info, just check out the downloadable files right here. Also, there's a little request from the developer himself. He'd like to know if it works as well for other devices, since he can only test it on stuff that he does have, like the Supercard SD, and GBA flashcarts. So, if you can see if it works with other devices, please let us know about it.

Thanks much!

Team LemProject has released LemmingsDS v3.1. LemmingsDS v3.1 has the following changelog:

• The music and sound is turned on by default
• Random in game music playing
• Fixed bugs causing the game to crash while the music fades in and out
• Changed the behavior of the editor slightly by replacing the meaningless 'Zero Overwrite' level texture object option with a 'Subtractive' option, which causes the selected piece to 'punch through' existing terrain leaving transparency behind.

The Team also say this upgrade is necessary if you want to partake of some upcoming LemProject goodies. The download files are the Lemmings DS game ROM without any custom levels for various flash hardware.

LemProject also has two apps for advanced users. The Lemmings DS Builder is a level editor for making and editing your own Lemmings DS levels. The Lemmings DS Custom Level Utility is for adding and removing custom levels from a Raw Lemmings DS game ROM.
