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

• replace toml with .hex format?
  • what else is available for palettes?
    • ~JASC .pal (yes)~
    • Photoshop ASE (nah - seems rather proprietary/difficult to parse)
    • ~GIMP .gpl (yes!)~
    • .png
    • .hex
    • .txt

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
