Eevee (Evelyn Woods) 5cb29c8f7d Overhaul collision 
Collision now uses bits and masks.  The main upshot is that ghost and
ice/directional blocks collide much more correctly, now.  And turtles
block fireballs.

Also, monsters can now move over "no" signs, and can trample the player
if she's standing on top of an item.

While I was at it, I finished implementing the "bestowal bow", an item
mod (same layer as the "no" sign) that allows any actor to pick up the
item in that tile.

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.

Play online

Give it a try, I guess! https://c.eev.ee/lexys-labyrinth/
