If possible add #9 to the list, otherwise making menus will be a bit harder to implement.

Thanks for the suggestion @Andre-LA , unfortunately, there's still a lot of questions about how we want to handle this feature. For example, different font sizes for different resolutions, what exactly a "font" should be (bit depth, etc). The issue itself has more details about this though.

Currently it would be possible to do a workaround by using sprite images as your "font" and just calling draw_sprite for each letter. Not ideal, but I expect that once the text feature is implemented it will just be sugar for that.

Anyway I've added it as a "Nice to have" but realistically I think that, along with Gamepad support would be great for the 2nd major update.
