Add option for all objects to have title things like npcs

NPC can have an overhead text over the head (yes, that sounds obvious) but would be cool if it could be possible for items, enemies, blocks, projectiles etc. And also a way to modify it through the time.

A good idea will be add it to pickup able items so when you're above them they show the item's name above it.
Sorry because my English is not very good because I'm Spanish ;) :P

One possibility is to use a timeline that loops a command such as:


<enemy 2>Hello
