My plan is to make a simple top-down style shooter. No innovative gameplay or great original graphics, so please forgive me on that. I'm just hoping for something functional by then end of the week. I can already see quite a few people have some pretty amazing stuff

At first I thought I'd give some time to designing some nice code, but I only started messing with the pygame API a week before the contest so instead I just dove in and starting coding stuff.

• 1 Level
• 1 Hero with 8 rotatable positions and a graphic to match
• 3 Evil Robot sprites
• Hero has 2 weapons
• projectile
• beam

What I've go so far

• Basic hero sprite drawn on screen.
• The level constructed and rendered, which is walls and floor.
• The level also has markers or where to put the robots and hero.
• The hero moves around on screen and the screen follows with the hero centered.

What I'm working on

• Collision detection of hero with walls.
• I'm having difficulty moving the hero back to the correct position after a collision.
