*Gravity Well* is a simple two-player (shared keyboard) game. Fly around a gravity well, collecting salvage. Bounce one another, accelerate and rotate. Whomever collects the most salvage wins.

This isn't intended to be a finished game; I'm hoping that someone finds the source code useful/instructive. Elements in the code:

* **Assets**: a basic asset manager to specify your sprite atlases up-front (with the builder pattern), and combine them into a single `Assets` resource.

* **Menu Framework**: a simple framework for displaying a main menu and game over screen, as well as a "Loading, please wait" message while your assets finish loading.

* **Physics**: some very primitive collision detection, velocity and gravity code.

* **Centered Text**: I added a bundle for centered text, just because I find the normal Bevy code verbose.

* **Particles**: a very simple particle system. Not at all optimized.
