You have an actual guy! (faces the direction he's walking)
Server sends blocks of the level to you (no more plain grass)

but gets the job done for now)
Tweaked the client parser (it had a bug, go figure =P )
You have a player file stored on the server!

to play or quit (other options added later)

intro screen and reconnecting actually works!
