Crunch time

At work today I made a prioritized list of things I need to do. I'm listing it here for reference:

  1. Keyboard buttons activate on-screen buttons, rather than just the mouse
  2. Random dungeon generation
  3. Non-monster sprites
  4. Stairs up
  5. Activity log (i.e. hits, misses, etc)
  6. Spawning monsters
  7. More variety of items
  8. PC can drop inventory items
  9. PC can pick things up
  10. More than 10 items in inventory should be accessible
  11. Filling rooms with random treasure
  12. Monsters drop loot
  13. Game over screen
  14. Save game
  15. Load Game
  16. Character Creation Screen

    17. -----

  17. Character viewing screen
  18. Skill Cooldown, consumable items
  19. Character skills
  20. Choices of skills to gain on level up
  21. Better-looking dungeons
  22. Combat animations/effects
  23. Other classes

Everything above the line are things I consider critical to even play the game. I've already worked on some of them, but none are complete. I've got two options at this point: Give up in the face of overwhelming adversity, or

GO FOR IT!

You can probably guess which one I'm trying :)
