Idea by and direction by @shapr
Sensible decisions and working linear algebra things due to @awjchen who paired with me and diverted me from many blind alleys and poor decisions.

My first game! My worst game! My best game! It WORKS!
I don't know linear algebra and I needed it for this game. Going from zero to one writing a game is hard. Lucky for me, I had Alex Chen helping out, and he's already written a game in Haskell!
Several times I almost got stuck and Alex said "We'll use OpenAL because it handles stereo sound really well" and "let's stick to 2D coords and then translate to OpenAL's 3D coords" and "Let's use SDL for keyboard input because it's easy" (after I'd gotten stuck trying something else)
