[Coco] Fix It Felix retro style game (based on Donkey Kong style of play)

I've played the "Fix It Felix" game at Disneyland and found it wanting.  
The controls were bad and play like a bad early 80's arcade game.  Trust 
me, there were a lot of bad games back then.  The good thing about the 
game it was free to play.

There are better games to port.

One game that would be easy to port using the vertical scroll technology 
used in Marty's Nightmare would be Crazy Climber.
(See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJAEmOtLZHg)

Could even make it better on the CoCo.  (Well, smother scrolling away.)
