Lix, formerly known as, is a Lemmings-like engine created in the 1990s by Simon Naarmann. It is coded in D and is avaliable for 32-bit and 64-bit computers for Windows and Linux. The two major selling points of Lix is that it's completely copyright-free (using its own character which are a female version of Lemmings), and containg network multi-player (similar to Amiga Lemmings). As a result of this, it is widely considered to be the second-most popular Lemmings engine (second to NeoLemmix).
