First few levels of a tough little puzzle game I'd never heard of before, seems similiar to a lot of online ones out these days.

The title track is legendary, too bad you didn't play it till the end(yes there's sidplay, but...)

@TheRealCheesemaker I would have but it's too fast for me lol Could always slow it down with an emu, though...

Thanks for posting this, brings back memories (I am the author).

@sammanthorpe Oh great! You know, this is like Lemmings before Lemmings was even conceived.

Looks fun.

[wandererlain]

@inphanta Kind of. A tough bitch, though. I have all the passwords for the game, luckily, thanks to a back-issue of Zzap!64. I'll give you them if you fancy playing it.

@wandererlain That's nice that you got the timeline right - there are comments on forums about this game being "like Lemmings" that imply that I imitated it, but I really didn't :-)

I remember having this game back in my childhood. The heads kinda freaked me out as a child...
