Description

While the developer can configure things like missile speed, burn force, gravity, the presence of the star, etc... right now the player is unable to configure any of those things. Need to decide what parameters the player should be able to controls and provide a way for the player to configure those options. I am reminded of minecraft's configuration file. Also many games provide a options page with switches and controls the player can set. One could even imaging saving setups. Need to flesh out what the player can alter and the mechanism used to do so.

Reference the discussion in issue #7.

Research direction

Start by reading the discussion in issue #7 and use it to define which game parameters players should control. Agree on the configuration mechanism, including whether an options page or saved setups are needed; done means the scope and user-facing behavior are specified clearly enough to implement.
