===---=== Game Plan ===---===
- setup and configure our Python environment
- load up all of our image and texture data
- load up all sound effects
- create an object that the player controls
- handle keyboard input to move the player
and fire a laser shot
- create a meteor object
- this will be independently updated in our game area
- we have 3 different sizes of meteors: large, med, small
- if a laser blast hits a meteor then it will vanish
- if the player or meteor travels off the side of the game area, it will warp to the other side of the game area
- if a laser shot travels off the side of the game area, it will vanish
