Eevee (Evelyn Woods) 9b873764fb Shim around several compat issues that affect CCLP levels 
- CCLP1 #81 requires pushing blocks off of blue walls, which is
  impossible in CC2 but allowed in TW Lynx (unclear if this is a lynx
  behavior or a tw bug)

- CCLP1 #89 has a tank start on a recessed wall and drive off of it,
  expecting the recessed wall to be left alone, but under CC2 rules it
  becomes a wall; such walls are now automatically converted to a new
  tile, the "doubly recessed wall", which restores the expected behavior
  without changing how recessed walls work in general

- CCLP4 #135 expects pressing a blue button to not affect blue tanks
  that are currently in mid-slide

In addition, the behavior of blue buttons now matches the Lynx/Steam
behavior: the press is stored as a flag and queued until the tank is
next able to move.

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.
