Tasks

Remove ceremony/boilerplate for adding new images

Tickets

Closes #22

Changes:

New asset loading API:

// old
assetManager.loadImages([{ name: 'cloud-1', image: someImportedImage }]);

// new
assetManager.selectImages(['cloud-1']).load()

Advantages:

We should be able to queue up multiple loaders with asset selecting, then load them all together with a call to load.
We could easily write a callback to track progress for a loading bar

Also, check out the new asset loaders in src/assets/*.js - we should be able to rapidly build new loaders, and implement them in AssetManager.
