Scaling issues

I was struggling with the scaling issues. As you might have seen, the "pixels" displayed on the screen did not always had the same size. Now, this issue is fixed and it looks way better. Check it out:

Mouse dragging

Because of the scaling issue, now not all the tiles are visible on one image. In order to navigate through the map, you can now use the mouse and drag the camera around. You're going to use this feature in greater maps in order to navigate your characters and get an overview.

Title screen

Finally, I implemented a title screen. From here, you can navigate to a new game, your settings and exit the game. It is currently under development, so it might change a bit. The background image should stay the same.
