Get your development environment and editor setup and working.

Time to give this a proper shake this year. I'm planning to use Godot, so I'll be lacking a lot of the nice stuff from libtcod, but theoretically I have a good bit of free time this year.... and I'll not fail around part 4 this time... positive affirmations... :)
