# to do

## game data structure

more colours? max 10? (0-9) max 16? (0-f)
colours not in palette can use modulo
background palette and foreground palette? would be good to make interactive stuff obvious

--

add "move" functions for entities
e.g. move(direction), teleport

--

add "from_dir" functions for structs
  make that function generic?

-- 

what is the distinction between animate and inanimate objects?

idea: 
  * "tiles" which can animate, and optionally block movement, but have no other behaviour
  * "things" which can have complicated behaviours
  * ditch foreground/background? 
    * no - player character needs to be on top of a background image
      * each position could have (optionally) a tile and (optionally) a thing
      * things have render priority

* ideally support gif/png for images (are there other indexed colour formats?)

## players

* ~graphics~
    * re-use player avatar drawing function as generic image drawing function
    * text (how?)
    * support older graphics adaptors
    * player has some graphical tearing on non-integer window sizes

* show a help splash screen on first boot (with "do not show me this again" checkbox which saves to a local config)
  * what is peachy?
  * controls

### windows

* ~try to compile~
    * does not work on my acer laptop (2012)
    * does not work on my windows 8 VM
    * works on my computer via wine!

### future: arm/raspberry pi?

### web

will need:

* base64 decoding
* zip parsing
* webgl or something?
* audio??

## editor

* build something in egui
* can we do a web version that works with zip files?
    * investigate zip compression/decompression in rust

## documentation

where to find XMs?

https://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_license&query=publicdomain etc.
keygenmusic.org?
pouet.net or something?
