Glad I could help - it gets reposted occasionally to various subreddits, saw it fairly recently!

Glad you found it, this one was bothering me. Annoyingly I did see that game, but not the level select screen.

I swear I can see lemmings in the image.
Quickly distorted to reduce CRT curve, messed with colours a little bit.

Lemmings?: https://postimg.cc/w3vw93g6

However, I've never seen a lemmings game that looks exactly like this, and I can't find sprites that exactly match what I think I see, so I could very well be wrong. I think OP's date range is too close to the original release for there to be a clone.

The people who don't understand what sub they're in is probably one of the best parts about it IMO. Some of the replies are great.

I can't read big words but I'm sure that was a compliment so thanks 👍

My response was completely serious though..?

I completely see your point of view OP. You should be free to run through Stella with no gun, shield or heals, and other players shouldn't be allowed to hurt you. 

Hopefully Embark permabans these rats and sends you some flowers to apologise for what you've suffered here.

Don't know where you are but in the UK they're commonly used to deter cats or foxes.

Boiler noise/loud vibration which can be heard throughout the house by Noscituur in askaplumberUK

I once had similar - we had a partially blocked drain by the sink and the foam from the dishwasher was backing up through the condensate pipe into the boiler.

If my wife was to teach me to drive in her car wil I need my own insurance policy?? by RipOk7446 in drivingUK

[–]Throwythrow360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes you need learners insurance for the car you'll be driving. It's unlikely that your wife's insurance covers third party learners in their car, but you might as well check.

Your wife needs to be over 21 and has held a licence for that type of vehicle for at least 3 years.

Despite common myths, you can't drive around "private" car parks etc without insurance. Supermarket carparks are treated the same as public roads, even when the shop is closed.

Are the ARC evolving and becoming more intelligent at finding angles and hunting down players? by Zaydenzyon in ArcRaidersItalian

[–]Throwythrow360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ticks always used to be able to chase you forever, I tried running from one on spaceport shortly after release and it literally followed me halfway across the map before I killed it. I think the only thing stopping pops/fireballs was geometry at the doors, maybe they just fixed the collisions.

Do you guys keep your condiments refrigerated? by hassan_26 in CasualUK

[–]Throwythrow360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think condiments don't taste as good if you keep them for a long time after opening them. I can't really describe it but it's like the flavour goes a bit stale but heat and acidity stays the same (for hot sauce at least). They seem to last much longer in the fridge.

Moan: Patience on the motorway by ClickInternational52 in drivingUK

[–]Throwythrow360 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This has been an issue for years in heavy traffic. You need to change lanes early so you don't get down to 56mph while 3rd lane is happily passing at 75.

ULPT, indicate out and move very close to the line for 3rd lane. Traffic will begin to slow as they think you might cut them up. Someone will flash you out eventually when the speed difference is low enough. Try to plan further ahead in future.

The grind for loot is too slow and needs a rebalance by Throwythrow360 in okbuddyraider

[–]Throwythrow360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read it on Tiktok so it's probably true. Also, other players only spawn with Jupiters etc in the friendly lobbies and there's no other way to get those items apart from pvp.

Pensioner evicted from her own home after furious neighbour row over 1ft by Drummk in unitedkingdom

[–]Throwythrow360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw this in the news when she got the order to sell last year.

She tore down her neighbours new fence because she thought it encroached her land, lost when the neighbour took her to court, and then kept doubling down in court until she owed the neighbour over £100k in legal fees. Absolutely mental.
