AUTHOR NOTES:
	Thanks everyone for trying out my game, Space Domination. It is my sincere hope that you have an enjoyable experience.
	New features in version 0.3:
		- Redesigned menu system
		- Profiles
		- More than one player flyable ship
		- Stat tracking
	
	Anyone interested in messing with some advanced features that haven't been fully implemented, you can go into consts.py and alter the FRAMERATE, the GAMESPEED, and PARALLAX:
		- FRAMERATE - this is exactly what it sounds like, the game will update this many times per second
		- GAMESPEED - this is how many times per second the physics should update 1 full unit - so if something had a speed of "1", it will move GAMESPEED number of pixels per second
		- PARALLAX - (experimental) set this to lower than 1.0 (~0.7 is a good number) and the background will scroll more slowly than the ship is moving, giving the illusion of depth
	
	Thanks,
		Jami Couch
