UPDATE 19 FEB 2020:
The player can shoot now! Even better, the player can shoot a string of 5 lasers.
One challenge will be figuring out how to get one unique shot with each press of the spacebar.
Unique shots basically require an array (dimensioned based on presses of the space bar), but of course the catch-22 is that the computer doesn't know how many elements are in the array if the spacebar has never been pressed before (empty array).
I also made sure that .exe and game files could be exported properly for when the game is finally done and ready to be put in a .zip folder.
Thanks for reading!
