JavaFX Community Game project

[Richard Bair]

I created a bitbucket repo: https://bitbucket.org/rbair/fx-games/overview

I've invited Daniel & Jose as both have expressed interest, anybody else who wants to commit to it let me know. So at least we have somewhere to build the thing.

As far as graphics, the easy thing is to go with bitmaps to start with.

Oh, another option I thought about last night was we could build off of Dueling Dudes rather than a tower defense if you wanted. Whichever.
