 TODO:
-
-* Event system could take additional data so that the events can be more coarse and simpler.
-* Simplify the combat/collision system so that it's not a bunch of if-cases.
+* Save file isn't saving gold.
 * Inventory needs to be better, but need some kinds of "weapons" or other loot to get and not just gold.
 * Run the ansi_parser on the whole UI so I can use colors and other glyphs.
 * Create a few more enemy types to fight.
