# to do

## game data structure

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

### colours

~convert colours to hex~
* ~accept abcdef, #abcdef, 0xabcdef (inc. uppercase)~
* ~export as #abcdef~

### palettes

### images

* ideally support gif/png...

### parser

* ~move tests into their respective modules where appropriate~

## players

* ~graphics~
    * re-use player avatar drawing function as generic image drawing function
    * text (how?)
    * support older graphics adaptors
    
### linux

* ~get working~

### 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
