Amiga Longplay Lemmings (Part 1 of 2)

www.recordedami...
Played By: RickyC
Lemmings longplay!! All the fun, tricky, taxing and mayhem Levels. I was a bit of a noob on earlier levels but i learn :D
One or maybe two of the music tracks doesnt play right. one sound channel sounds all scratchy and not nice. Maybe happens on 1/10 levels. Sound also goes out of sync at a point. I found one file had this problem and it was the original so i blame Winuae for causing it D: It goes back in sync after a few levels. This happens somewhere in first half of video. -

I played this game in the late nineties. I have not thought about or even seen this game for more than 10 years. You have no idea how special this exact moment is for me. Manly tears.

[@57worldwide]

***** What were you playing it on in the late 90s?

[@Cowinspace]

57worldwide Probably on PC. Downside is that the PC version had crap music and sounds and worst of all, no "Let's Go!" at the level start.

[@57worldwide]

Cowinspace I remember the graphics being way better than all of the videos I have seen, for some reason

[@Cowinspace]

57worldwide That's just the combination of video compression and being shown at a scale well above the original resolution. Amigas rendered at 320x200 or 640x200 (NTSC) and 320x256 or 640x256 (PAL). So it also depends on the setting or emulation being used. If you want to see it rendered correctly try www(dot)oldgames(dot)dk/freeflashgames/arcadegames/playlemmings.php You'll see that it's tiny on a modern HD screen.

[@Eyzebian]

I know the game from the 90s as well. But me.. i remember how exhausting the gameplay was.

[@theblacksheep1000]

Ok Ill be honest, I only came here for that badass soundtrack! hehe

[@steerpike66]

This game was a work of sheer genius.

[@607]

Although there are quite a few not-so-well-done things about it, it is indeed an incredible concept, and the level design is brilliant.

[@Scripture-Man]

I'll never forget the first time I saw Lemmings on my friend's Amiga. The game, and the system, seemed so astonishingly different and magical, with such incredible music. I'd never really seen a mouse before. It all seemed so out-of-this-world, advanced, luxurious, and extravagant. It was like my friend had a sports car - literally that level of extravagance. After seeing Monkey Island soon after, I knew that I had to own an Amiga! Those two games still stand as absolute seminal pillars of videogame history.

[@worshipper777]

Lemmings was a hell of a game! I especially loved the levels quoting previous Psygnosis games, like "Menacing" or the one with the Shadow of the Beast and Awesome scenario! Unforgettable.

[@m.firzafadmaputra9569]

30 years anniversary for Psygnosis' iconic game and its mascot, Lemmings. >Sold over 20 million units worldwide various platforms >Greatest game originated from Amiga >Over 6 hours gameplay >Longlasting fun >Appeals for all-ages

[@dvsdez]

A game that not only is enjoyable to play, but also very emotionally attaching. The soundtracks are so beautiful that it can bring tears to my eyes. Truly the best game in the whole world! Unmatchable!

[@DollyBelladonna]

Pysnoisis Makes me proud to be a gamer and a scouser, I was interviewed to be a games tester at the place, when Playstation owned it This takes me back to my childhood

[@nux-1st-impulse]

really fascinated ... :)

[@leeball4585]

Piss noises???

[@legionbeast]

"A Beast of a Level" is certainly the best tribute to another game I've seen in a while.

[@captainblood9616]

It's great isn't it? I went mental the first time I reached this stage as Shadow of the Beast is a favourite too. I remember half hoping Aarbron would come charging through and crush some of the Lemmings

[@karvakake]

Years ago, friend of mine and I watched this and the part 2 for 5 hours without breaks and not skipping! Totally cured both of our end of the world hangovers! I am quite sure, this channel had different name back then.

[@Spacecookie-]

Ahh, I remember where all of my life went now.

[@MrMisanthrope84]

That soundtrack is the soundtrack to my youth as much as the Super Mario and Sonic themes. I still have these melodies playing in my mind, with all of that glorious midi layering, total ear worms. And what I loved was how the animations of the lemmings actions were often in time to the music!

[@ratius1979]

Utterly fiendish level design! One of the all time greats, pure class 🥰

[@RatBitchUK]

Can't believe I remember the levels to this day!!! Thanks, very nostaligic :-)

[@Startdotnow]

Talk about bringing back memories....holy crap! When you hear the sounds, it almost feels like a time warp.......................I miss the Amiga.

[@Picnicl]

The first game was perfect for the Amiga with its mouse. There were classical columns, jets of fire and menacing doors, metallic material, caverns, ice and forests. The elegant simplicity of the graphics on a black background in the Amiga games was all that was needed to highlight the little touches (like the way that they leap in to the door) and to make the Lemmings stand out as a wave with individual strengths that, God-like, could be assigned.

[@dvsdez]

This game was played extensively and as a result it is heavily imbedded into my brain. Still gets me choked up with all the fun, magic and mystery it contains, as well as the soundtracks that were so catchy and interesting. Thank you for the upload, as well as DMA Design and Psygnosis for creating this incredible game!

[@siakisiaosi8982]

(WARNING) many lemmings died during the making of this video

[@RockmanZeroModernDay]

Some Lemmings died during the making of this video.

[@chaunceydb]

The music to level 13 "We all Fall Down" (16:00-17:50) is fucking beautiful.

[@jukka-pekkatuominen4540]

chauncey db Amiga had always such a great music in those games!

[@NeilRoy]

Level 22 (42:40) was my favourite due to the excellent music.

[@meh78336]

***** The god old Shadow of the Beast level and music :)

[@NeilRoy]

P Henry Yeah, I believe that level was called "A beast of a level" as well.

[@knight2000-NC]

Shadow of the Beast music!!

[@foryouxanadu]

I found my old Amiga 500+ along with Lemmings 2 in my dad's attic a few weeks ago. Still working. Amiga will always be my first love!

[@kentakobashi2287]

Omg "Beast of a level" is shadow of the beast! Mind = Blown

[@LionmaneElsie08]

Thank you so much for uploading this. I loved this version of Lemmings the best. Memories ☺️☺️

[@mostropanigale]

Quanti ricordi. Avevo 7 anni. Grazie a questo gioco ho passato ore ed ore col mio papà.

[@BizkitPark21]

I'm not into puzzle games as much but Lemmings is one of the best videogames ever made. I played Lemmings on NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, PC, Playstation, Gameboy, Game Gear, and PSP.

[@Yakkers]

I had this game for mac along time ago, I wish I could have enjoyed it but I was really young and it gave me nightmares. Something about the way it seemed so old and many of the levels had all sorts of painful looking traps, like those lightning zappers, flamethrowers and spindding blades. The hellish environments scared me too. I do remember it being fun, and watching this brought a lot of positive and negative memorires back. Thanks for uploading!

[@Turanga1i1a]

Dang! You must forsake your whole life to get through this entire frickin game! Yet I thank you for doing so. I remember this from years ago. Several places I simply couldn't get through. Like that one level around 171:20 - that one's simply inhumane!

[@SlargTheGnome]

*sigh* I have yet to find a Lemmings video on KZbin that has the soundtrack I remember... I swear it was the prettiest stuff ever. Almost brought me to tears.

[@sonicking]

AMiga lemmings was the best version, Brillant music, classic gameplay and etc. One of my best games ever and one of my cildhood classics.

[@NeilMyatt]

one day, when the last Amiga fails to boot, videos like this one will be the only record of all those hours spent in the early 1990s before PCs and consoles took over 😊

[@lltfdaniel]

Brings back memories i can also remember the starting levels.

[@segaamusements2881]

Was playing this last night on my A600 Classic game that really only deserves to be played on the Amiga, good days these were :)

[@CintiaEmotion]

ESTO ES ORO! GENIO TOTAL EL QUE SUBIÓ ESTO!! :) QUE FELICIDAD!!

[@HeroHeloCrack]

Oh mein Gott

[@aaron75fy]

there's a lot of really tricky levels in this game, i'm impressed you mastered them

[@notanotanota]

Arguably the greatest video game soundtrack ever created....

[@sp0nge1337]

you are heroes, i've been following this for the PSP and Windows versions, id never have done Taxing 7 without you!

[@johnnyhobbit]

Lemmings is a classic, I had it on the Snes, I could never manage the mayhem levels tho lol

[@Amiga500_User]

Cute graphics, superb soundtrack and excellent gameplay all combined to one brilliant game! Love it!

[@MrRetroville]

I love the Amiga. Greatest gaming computer of all time. I've been dying to see a new Amiga system, just for nostalgia's sake. But it can never be as innovative as the original Amiga, so I say, leave it be. Amiga lost in the PC wars, but they were/are still the greatest of them all. They changed the world of gaming. No other company has had that impact. None.

[@tomthecat4509]

Sega exists.....

[@I8A4R3]

Sega is Android OS bitch now......Playstore

[@EarlOfMaladyCrescent]

I didn't realise this game was so big; six hours to complete it! Wow! I've not seen part 2 yet, but will do soon. I love that "Shadow of the Beast" type level. Very haunting music. & that foggy green colour scheme looks amazing.

[@funfun_2001]

LOVED the music for the Amiga version way back when and still do!

[@hardcoreheaven4]

Apart from the scratching (which, let's face it, hardly matters) this is awesome. Just awesome. You are to be commended my friend!5/5 and faved!!

[@mima85]

I just LOVED this game and it's fantastic background tunes!

[@BarryAirdrieFromDaUK]

i absolutely LOVE the music played at 47:20 This game reminds me of the great old days when i was a 15 year old teenager and i used to have an Amiga 600 and play this game all the time back in 1993.

[@martinezmartin4739]

Najlepsza gra logiczna w jaką grałem!

[@yoe91]

One of the best games of all time.

[@gazbertram5559]

this games brings back memories

[@Genesivare]

That game is awesome! And music in it is just a masterpiece!

[@silverdamascus2023]

Fun fact: The company that made this game, DMA Design, is the same company that created the GTA series, and later became the studio Rockstar North. Come on Rockstar, make a new Lemmings game, I know you have many other more profitable series, but it wouldn't hurt making a new game of this one.

[@607]

I'm pretty sure they don't have the rights to it anymore. Do you know who made the semi-recently released Lemmings Touch?

[@PacGuy765]

+Victor Damázio like for PS4, Lemmings has been on every PlayStation Platform: PS, PS2, PSP, PS3 and PS Vita

[@aztechseran4244]

Indeed. I think Team 17 owns the rights, since they made some console games back in 2007.

[@aztechseran4244]

Yes, i believe it's Team 17, if they haven't sold it to anyone else. Maybe they could tell more, if someone wrote 'em e-mail.

[@bikerbiker2335]

[@g1cast-ReginaToday]

I was editing a timelapse capture of a construction site and the movement of the workers from a distant reminded me of this game that I used to play.

[@miroslavzima8856]

One of the few games I´ve played with my brother, mom and friends. Sweet memories :)

[@MarkArandjus]

Thinking back this game was just so nonlinear, amazing for its time, I was always excited to see what the next level would be :D

[@AlphaAlex1]

ah the memories.

[@DuncanMcA]

worth it for the music alone, so many nice memories :)

[@Bunnymoonstone]

My childhood ♥

[@sunhuntin]

i remember mum would often play this until she finished. usually meant she was up after midnight, and i would go to sleep with the sound them being squished [when they fell from great heights with no umbrella] ringing in my ears.

[@Shinnjid]

the game was really good, but the music made it fantastic! :o) used to love it as a child

[@tastybrains]

this was one my favorite games of all time. i forgot how good (and varied!) the soundtrack was.

[@Gr8Dane78]

I had the original on Amiga back in the days, and that also had the weird sound bug where 1 channel of the music sometimes sounded all scratchy. :-) Sure brings back a lot of memories.

[@FlowerofDissolution]

Psygnosis had the rights to both Lemmings and Shadow of the Beast making it possible to do the crossover. Not to mention owning the rights to Menace ("Menacing" level 14, Tricky). David Whittaker wrote the music in both SotB and Menace. Great music indeed! ^^ I remember, when you got to those levels, it as such a ROFL moment seeing those other games in Lemmings!

[@FamousAdventurer77]

This version of Lemmings had one of the best soundtracks ever. When is GOG going to put up all the old editions of Lemmings?

[@RetroCubeXD]

I used to play this shit ALL THE TIME on DOS. I miss those days.

[@Tubegaret]

I would love a new edition of lemmings!

[@TheMoonPower]

God, I would stay awake for freaking hours playing this game. Jesus Christ, I still do!

[@Makielia]

O.O I haven't played this game in so long, yet I remember ALL of these levels! Just goes to show how much my family and I played this game back when dinosaurs roamed the earth... Thanks for posting this, this is great. =D

[@dimebomb]

I can only imagine the sh*t we put our parents through with that "springy" sound effect!!??

[@GrimCerberus]

i waited for "easy when you know how". a level i can never do. i do it, but only by the skin of my teeth. i saw you seemed a bit panicky and clueless too. *cries* one day!! one day ill do it!!! my favourite one is the spooky one with the tree. the music on that one kicks arse. :D

[@BarryAirdrieFromDaUK]

The music at 07:15 is the same as i mentioned earlier. i LOVE this music, reminds me the Good Old Days when i was in High School and used to play this game on my Amiga.

[@vivvpprof]

Wow, level 19 (tricky) is absolutely maddening, I've spent hours working on a solution but came up with none so I thought I'd refer to this walkthrough to get the idea :D Thanks

[@MWaser]

Awww.... Lemmings... The game of my childhood.

[@seanp8220]

Its fascinating to see solutions to levels that casued trouble

[@libertycap7109]

The music brings back memories

[@twilighttadawn]

Super cool music!! and it brings back such fond memories.. go lemmings!

[@Anofalye]

1 of the funny thing about this game is...new versions often have crappier graphics and sound effect (play on phone), and it still is a gem even with all the downgrades. Always popular!

[@tudorjason]

I so remember this game. It was aggravating and addicting.

[@mamawakikawasaki]

ah... i grew up on this game.. so much memories :)

[@Poser_Metal_Records]

Haha my dad had this game on our Amiga back in the day. Pain in the ass game!

[@marcuswalker3409]

Whoever's playing this, stop sacrificing Lemmings! Not every Lemming has to die!

[@AndrewO83]

Watching in 2018. Watching ALL the Amiga playthroughs of the games we used to have. Damn I wish I could play this game again but I can't be bothered setting up an emulator. Justs need a reboot from someone that I can play just by buying and installing the game on my laptop :P

[@84kingmartin]

Difford you should get a emulator for Amiga.. worth it dude.. took me 10 mins to set and get running tops..

[@carrrer]

Even the music is very harmonic and calm, not disturbing like in today games.

[@TheClosetGamer]

I first played this on the SNES, I miss this game so much.

[@snaw3237]

Holy shit this brings back so many memories, i do havd tears in my eyes

[@chrisbjorn825]

I love the music in this game.

[@cosmickatamari]

I have a DOS VM with this and some older games when I wanna play games from my childhood.

[@sidonus]

awsome video, thanks a lot, a real sense of nostalga!! rellay bought back some old memorys :) good times

[@pk22cm]

Either you are really good, or you have played really much. However, thanks for the nostalgy. Me and my sister sat for 2 years, on and of and finnally we made it. All 4 worlds. It was worth it!

[@GhostAnimals93]

This was the greatest strategy game of all time:)

[@PacGuy765]

the scratches on some of the tunes are the best 4 me, coz they take me bk 2 when me and my sister use 2 play it all the time, but we could never pass "Keep you're hair on Mr. Lemmings" Because we didn't realise: THOSE ARROWS ARE ONE-WAY WALLS!

[@Highlander1518]

@britishpony I know how you feel, dude. Lemming's earns a place in my heart, too. It certainly invokes many childhood memories for me. I spent hours playing it!

[@irishbloke99]

What a game this was back in the day id love to replay it.

[@Suicide_nb]

Its on Android

[@sltmdrtmtc]

Snif, j'ai passé des heures sur ce jeu quand j'étais petit.

[@KingOfAllExcuses]

Oh. Thank you. After watching a few levels i kinda started to think thats what they did. Good job on the video!

[@mekkabon]

I remember playing this game when I was little and I loved it ^^ The music always got stuck in my head~ It actually had some scary moments too, when you think about it. Lemmings could spontaneously combust, there was lava and fire everywhere, bear traps that shredded the lemmings to bits ._.

[@Ich_liebe_brezeln]

And don't forget the garrote, trap the lemmings and strangles them.

[@FredDude27]

The first stage music is "Infernal Galop" by Jacques Offenbach.

[@Aztecius]

lol 183 minutes? nevertheless, an absolute gem of a game, that should never be underestimated, well worth it (and this is only the first half lol)

[@amigarule673]

the most mind blasting game i ever played! best puzzle game ever!!

[@Megaritz]

Lemmings has always been awesome and always will be. Same for Lemmings 2, to a degree. The later ones, not so much.

[@Megaritz]

Holy shit I posted this 14 years ago when I was in high school.

[@SonicTheHedgehog17]

13:50 - 14:08 - nice rhythmic workout by Basher :)

[@evillttlimp]

i always LOVED the music for level 22 (the beast of a level)
