Add constants pointers for many things instead of hardcoded text
Split in several "database file" some important datas
Split some elements in several lists
Maybe add a validator that can be called from a special checkdatabase.sh ? Basically check all the data files and create a file with all errors ?
Separate the maps and events files in their own folders outside of gamedata
Put back the assets in assets folders
Maybe preload the database ?

Exemple of splits :

Instead of the characters folders, split in several files with the datas, and using [CHAR_SONIC] = {}, or some stuff like that
For the move, split in a "moves.lua" file, a "moves_aniamtions.lua" file, a "moves_effects.lua" file, and files for choregraphies.
For the ennemies, use a species/ennemies split like in pokemon
