Space Gophers

Space Gophers is an experiment in using Go routines and WebSockets to calculate complex physics and character/enemy movement server side. The Frontend is implemented with a basic CreateJS canvas interface and does absolutely no calculations other than managing objects in the canvas. It is entirely a server-side state object, rendered to the canvas.

Bugs

• Need to implement a better system for animating the enemy gophers… updating too often right now so we don't get proper animation, disabled the enemy gophers' animations for now.
