Love the concept. I wish you could drop a bit of your lantern power to keep some platforms active while keeping your focus elsewhere, it would have meant less having to focus on 1 NotLemming at a time as I'd have the confidence they weren't going to fall to their death and speed up the game significantly... apart from that minor tedium, however, I really enjoyed the game. And it's a great interpretation of the theme.
I played the browser version and it did crash after the third level unfortunately, but I saw enough to know I like it.

That's a good observation, I think that really nails it on the head for me. The reason the game slowed to a crawl for me was because I was only able to do about one lemming at a time and hiding the lantern wasn't fast enough. As Golden Wreath already said, that would speed up the game. I think the only issue is the pacing, everything else and the mechanics were great! Wonderful visuals!
Thanks both of you! Really good feedback and I appreciate the compliments as well. Before I settled on just hiding the lantern light I thought about letting you have two that you could pick up and move around, which I think would have been the better way to go, but I had to drop that feature due to time constraints. If I ever go back and update it this is definitely a change I want to make!
