+Following systems are ordered by vague overarching priority:
+
+## Save/Load System
+I know I called this an "Interactive Save Editor" but I haven't started that yet.
+- [ ] SNES Support
+- [ ] PSX Support (should be identical to SNES with different offset)
+- [ ] GBA Support (note, does not imply full asset ripping)
+- [ ] Steam Pixel Remaster Support (I haven't bought this yet so low prio) (note, does not imply full asset ripping)
+
+## Menu System
+I have mostly solved parsing of SNES menus in a sister project, however there are so few of them that hardcoding better behaviour would be nicer anyway.
+- [ ] Main Menu and Load/New Game
+- [ ] Party Menu and submenus
+- [ ] Shops
+
+## Map Field System
+- [ ] Character sprites (solved problem, soon™)
+- [ ] NPC sprites (solved problem, soon™)

+### World Maps (Fields?)
+- [ ] Tiles (solved problem, soon™)
+- [ ] Tilemaps (solved problem, soon™)

+- [ ] Mode 7 Effects (...might hardcode these later)
+### Dungeon/Town/Zone Maps (idk what accepted terminology is)
+- [ ] Tiles (solved problem, soon™)

+- [ ] Parser
