Vincent Slifer Week 7 PPJ

This week was fairly productive, on my end.  I added new features to the Mech Game, to make it more fleshed out in regards to player interaction.  The features now give something for the "Alien" players to do while the riders are in the mini-game.

• Target Switching
• Projectile Spread
• Camera Shake
