The first level is very easy; don't complete it until you are familiar with the interface and commands, though the remaining two levels were hard for me to finish.
Bandicam Watermarks in the screenshots are not in game; they are from the software I use to get screenshots.
If you're experiencing lag/frame-rate issues. I've been informed of the issue and unfortunately it makes the game unwinnable. I apologize for this; the issue exists because I completed the Ludum Dare on a rather top of the line PC; without consideration of deployment to slower machines. The Standalone edition does seem to have reduced issue compared to the web version; however, so if experiencing issues online try the download.

The odd jump from cops & robbers to Mexican food is mostly due to me running short on time and not being able to implement as many paths or as fitting of an opener as I would have liked. The sudden shift from getting food to a major life decision was supposed to be jarring, since all of the endings would be something sudden that you would not see coming.
After the first level it's very challenging, but I liked it. Haven't played lemmings in years. :D
Nice job recreating Lemmings, but between glitches (elves getting stuck in walls, walking through grappling hook lines) and just not being able to drop down without killing everyone, I just couldn't manage it. Seems like it could be fun if i worked a little more consistently. Not sure I understood the connection to the theme either.
Besides that, nice work! :)
