 #### Medium priority
 * Crouching
 * Animations
-* Add remote state to [Mantle](https://mantledeploy.vercel.app/). Currently it's only supported by AWS, and I don't feel like setting that up right now. Remote state is for sure better for CI/CD, but we have to wait for other ways to do this
+* Change remote state to a provider where I dont have to worry about money
 * Seperate dev&prod environments (maybe later??? the game is very early stage so idk)
 * Migrate todo to somewhere else like the issues tab
 ##### Low priority
