Forked from perscolas-rtt-se/Space_Battle_starter_code

while making this app i learned:

• about requestAnimationFrame() and requestIdleCallback()

• safari, among other modern web browsers, does not currently support the screen orientation api

  • as such, we should strive to make user experiences consistent across all platforms

• waiting to call alert() or prompt() until after a reflow/repaint is tricky

and i got more practice with:

• classes in js

• the model-view-controller pattern

and i took inspiration from:

• https://github.com/smogon/pokemon-showdown

• https://github.com/smogon/pokemon-showdown-client

there's a lot that could still be done, like:

• adding new features, such as:

  • animations

  • difficulty by:

    • allowing enemies to attack together

    • including a boss ship

    • making enemies stronger after each battle

  • more sprites

  • perks, including:

    • medals

    • missiles

    • shields

• allowing the user to target any enemy

• initiating the battle with a random number of enemies, as opposed to just 6

• prompting the user if they'd like to play again
