Lemming Syndrome (Dynabyte)
On a scale of 1 to 10 for silliness, this program gets a 34. It is not just silly... but outright insane!
You are the brave and fearless Lifeboat Lennie valiantly patrolling the shark infested waters under the only bridge to the mainland. Mad Marco is on the rampage and has destroyed part of the bridge. The only escape for the fleeing terror stricken population is to jump over the edge of the bridge and your job is to save them. The only way to do this is to bounce them across to the other side via your life raft.
You have two options of controlling your life raft, either proportionally or absolutely. Using proportional control you move left or right depending on how long you keep the respective key depressed. Using absolute control you move to one of three definite positions on the screen depending on which of the keys you press. This means if you are on one side and you press the key for the other side you move directly there and don't stop in the middle position.
There are numerous options for the speed at which the population jumps, the slowest being fairly easy and the fastest being virtually impossible. As well as bouncing the population from one side to the other you have to avoid the dynamite that Mad Marco throws to try and blow up your raft and also avoid the sharks which try and eat your raft. The game ends when you have let 50 people drown, or your raft gets destroyed either by the dynamite or the sharks. This is an excellent game with superb graphics and an original idea to boot.
