GapiDraw

Ok, up until now our game has not been so exciting, just a scrolling background and some border graphics. Time to make it more interesting! We will now add a bat to the game, and also make the bat move automatically so we have a nice demo application!

First, download the file bat.png and save it to your Breakout\Common\res folder. Then add it to your Visual Studio project as a PNG image and name it IDB_BAT.

You should now have a moving ball and moving bat on your screen, and the ball should properly reflect on the bat and the walls!
