Here a little screenshot of the first island:

http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/tmp/supertux-worldmap-2004-04-15.jpg

It has room for 30 levels, but be can 'compact' it a bit more if
necessary of course.

Should have 'yes', will have, most likly 'no'. Both from a graphic and
programming point of view bosses can be quite throublesome and I would
like to get milestone1 out real soon now. So if we don't get real
bosses till then we strip them out or reduce them to something
extremly simplfied (little sign in the boss area "I will be back after
lunch" or so).

Since second island might already have backscrolling/vertical
scrolling and might also take place in another tileset, I think we
should 'burn' (ie. use) all levels that we have now if they are fun.
Whats not so fun can go into the contrib section.

I suggest we symbolize the caves and bridges simply by different icons
for the levels, since this is something that can be done with little
effort, while anything else could get really complicated if it should
look decent.

Needs new ClanLib version, due to added zoom support.
