FUTURE FEATURES

• dissolving platforms
• elevators
• shortcut doors
• countdown timer

TECH DEBT

• should use an FSM to manage player state (standing/left/right/falling/climbing/hurt/etc)
• allow monsters to overlap (make cell.monster an array instead of single object)
• use images for tower gradient and platforms (instead of raw ctx stroke/fill calls)
• direction-agnostic monster sprites (abstract)
• tiny gap in ground rendering in FF/IE where image wraps (need to render image on (0.5, 0.5) boundaries)
