	Disclaimer
	~~~~~~~~~~
	I don't care what you use this for. It's intended to be educational, and perhaps
	to the oddly minded - a little bit of fun. Please hack this, change it and use it
	in any way you see fit. BUT, you acknowledge that I am not responsible for anything
	bad that happens as a result of your actions. However, if good stuff happens, I
	would appreciate a shout out, or at least give the blog some publicity for me.
	Cheers!

	Background
	~~~~~~~~~~
	Whilst waiting for TheMexicanRunner to start the finale of his NesMania project,
	his Twitch stream had a counter counting down for a couple of hours until it started.
	With some time on my hands, I thought it might be fun to see what the graphical
	capabilities of the console are. Turns out, not very much, but hey, it's nice to think
	Wolfenstein could have existed a few years earlier, and in just ~200 lines of code.

	IMPORTANT!!!!
	~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	READ ME BEFORE RUNNING!!! This program expects the console dimensions to be set to 
	120 Columns by 40 Rows. I recommend a small font "Consolas" at size 16. You can do this
	by running the program, and right clicking on the console title bar, and specifying 
	the properties. You can also choose to default to them in the future.

	Future Modifications
	~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	1) Shade block segments based on angle from player, i.e. less light reflected off
	walls at side of player. Walls straight on are brightest.
	2) Find an interesting and optimised ray-tracing method. I'm sure one must exist
	to more optimally search the map space
	3) Add bullets!
	4) Add bad guys!
