DHTML Lemmings is still playable in a modern browser: https://www.elizium.nu/scripts/lemmings/
It's dated 2004, but I'm convinced I remember playing it earlier.

I can't seem to find it online anywhere, but I'm also reminded of the knockoff game "Flea Circus" which I played in grade school :)
Predates it at all. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/ca... says browser support didn't come until 2005 at the earliest.
It got taken down shortly after that by BREIN, the Dutch copyright watchdog, but it lives on as Pumpkins.
Amazing that JS from the Internet Explorer era still works well 20 years later.
This aged really well, I had no idea how impressive this was when I first played it either. The only thing is the cookies, which might break after 26 years:
function setcookie(id, cookievars) {
document.cookie = id+'='+cookievars+'; expires=Monday, 20-May-2030 05:00:00 GMT';
}So maybe somebody uploaded it in support.
