Main menu

[SuperShadowPlay]

Closes #6 It's not the prettiest thing in the world, nor is it as "extensible" as I planned, but it gets the job done for now.

Added:

• Main Menu (takes the place of the pause menu)
  • Press p to open
• Map selection
  • Fixed problems with entities from an old map sticking around in a newly loaded map.
  • Press up and down to select a map and backspace to load the map.
• Map list
  • This is a file in the maps that holds a table containing information about all of the available maps.
• Added generic (and ugly) planet texture
• Added an open-source font to make text a bit more stylish

Should we add clickable buttons first?

[SuperShadowPlay]

I feel like clickable buttons could be for another time (especially because I'm too lazy). Right now we just need a decent way to load maps. As for Jay's suggestion I'd be glad to do that if that's what you guys want. I originally did the mapList.lua file as an explicit "here is exactly what maps are available, in this order, and with this metadata". The only thing that could become an annoyance from moving that data to Tiled is that it would be harder to order the maps in a certain way.

Let's merge this in and we can revisit autoloading later. Really good job on getting all this implemented @SuperShadowPlay.
