Milestone 1

This week we completed a few things:

• Implemented a basic 2D court with placeholder assets
• Implemented basic movement and controls*
• (Mostly) completed the Game Design Document
• Character design for 1 character
• A mock-up for the first court design
• Started research and implementation of 2D Ball Physics
• Currently, the ball properly stops on contact with the ground, and moves in the appropriate direction when contact is made by a player. Hits haven't been implemented yet, so any contact will send the ball in the opposite direction.

*The keyboard controls have been implemented for 2 players, however implementing 2 player controller input had some issues. We'll be meeting on Sunday at the game dev club working session to hammer out these problems and start work on milestone 1.5.
