- Used to verify correctness of puzzles
- Macros (
include_aseprite,include_wav, etc) should be in a separate module as they seriously affect IDE syntax checking/linting speed - The sum of row clues should generally match the sum of column clues
- Small puzzles (6x6, 8x8) have their sprites doubled, but this allows for 'subpixel' detailing (see 8x8 potion)
- Don't make diagonal puzzles
- Scene management
- enum of scenes instead of box
- Stack of scenes
- Issues: vram gets used up, solution might be to create backgrounds/sprites on init and drop backgrounds when backgrounded
- Save structure
- BGM across multiple scenes
- Less repetitive sound setting checks (global sfx enabled check?)
- Unit testing without needing mgba
- How palettes are generated
- Buzzing on music
