• User will press start game
• instructions appear
• user receives 5 "arrows"

• Each time a fish is hit, it's (y-coordinate) score is added to the overall score
• Once a user has used all 5 "arrows" game is over and total score is put above leaderboard and on leaderboard if appropriate
• User is able to restart the game

Difficulty settings

• fish at surface swim relatively faster act as obstacles for bigger fish at bottom
• as time increases fish swim faster making it harder to reach bottom fish

1. Create Canvas (blue rectangle 80% of height)
2. Fish hit boundary and reverse direction along same x axis
3. Create boat stationary in center
4. Boat shoots bullets vertically at fixed velocity when spacebar is pressed
5. Bullet collision with fish results in bullet
6. fish disappearing fishes y coordinate added to score
7. Shots remaining counter decreases by 1
8. When shots remaining counter == 0, Game Over
9. Leaderboard appears with newest score on top
