+ added death effects
AI:
+ added Trap Skeletons (watch out for suspicious piles of bones)

HUD:
+ added messages to the left side of the hud when picking up objects (or for other events). these messages fade away quickly.
Gameplay:
+ player respawns with half health and mana

+ added player and ai footsteps with varying sounds for ground types for players
+ added spell charging sound
