Chip's Challenge 2 emulator that runs in a browser
Seems to work mechanically though I haven't extensively stress tested it yet. Force floors work the way you'd want them to though (you're given control whenever you can make an input and not otherwise). There are some graphical bugs with rewinding, but there were some without turn based mode anyway... |

Lexy's Labyrinth
This is a web implementation of a puzzle game that bears a striking similarity to Chip's Challenge and its sequel, but is legally distinct, and also free!
It is a work in progress and also might be abandoned and forgotten at any time.
