This is probably the last kind of game I expected to see, but it works very well for the theme. A whole game of single-lemming style puzzles might be interesting.
You've managed to get some fairly interesting puzzles out of the limited set of tools you give the player. That kind of puzzle design is harder than it looks, so well done.
For things I didn't like as much, the timing of selecting the actions was a bit fiddly: you had to push the button slightly ahead of the time when you wanted the lemming to start. This makes problems like a lemming stuck in a narrow pit essentially random coin flips, which isn't much fun. Might help to look at the very deliberate pacing the original lemmings had; it made it easy to have very precise timing.

Hope this helps.
