It's going to be a two player game at first and then I'll work my way do to
one when I can figure out how to do some AI.  Almost a full implementation
of Star Control but of a different flavor and properties.

It'll be posted continuously with every major revision, whenever class
workload lets up a bit.

Asteroids, hmmm, I could give it a try but I have been wanting to see if
a Sierra-like game could be done and some of the other very popular games
like Street Fighter II (nahhhhh) or one of my favorites, CyberEmpires.
Maybe a new Gauntlet GS.  Remember now, this is all just thoughts, not
actual projects in design.
