Looking Towards 0.05

I've been pretty busy with life and work, so I haven't really touched anything yet for 0.05. The first step is to narrow down what sounds fun to work on. If I think about the project as a whole it's overwhelming, but if I focus on a short list of tasks it's manageable.

Category 1: Map Interaction

• Map interaction (switch toggle, open door/chest/crate/barrel, extinguish brazier)
• Map interactions that edit the map (throw a lever to open a secret wall)
• Map "pressure plate" triggers (e.g. traps or portals)
• Runtime map unloading/loading

Category 2: Menu Interaction

• Word Wrap support for font class
• Upper ASCII on font graphic
• Draggable Icons (Powers and Inventory menus)
• Icon database
