One of Dundee's most famous exports, the lemmings have been immortalised next to the old DMA Design offices up from the Nethergate in Dundee's west end.
The Lemmings sculptures, featuring the popular gaming characters clambering over a stone pillar, appeared in Seabraes earlier this week, sparking a flurry of online excitement from locals and from fans of the legendary game across the world who have hailed them as “awesome”.
It has now been revealed that the Lemmings are a new public artwork by sculptor Alyson Conway. Lemmings, originally developed for the Amiga by Dundee-based DMA Design, was one of the UK’s first blockbuster titles, selling 55,000 copies on its first day, and eventually recording over 15 million sales. Many of the original design team are still working in the city and contribute to the cities digital economy.
