Make a list of the things todo and I'll try to code some of them. I don't 
know enough about the game to do this myself yet.

Every class that needs not be derived from WorldObj shouldn't be and none 
must be derived public unless an "is a" relationship is required and meant.
I tried to remove WorldObj as base class from PinguAction and Particle - it's 
no problem at all with PinguAction but at least some Particles need a way to 
reference the world. The static World* in WorldObj is protected - changing 
it to public would solve this problem...
