 * In the user’s browser, the game is running in an infinite loop, where there is around a 1 second delay 
 * between each loop. Its during each loop that the UI acts on the commands that have been sent to it. A 
 * heartbeat event is fired at the end of each loop iteration. As with all events this is received by the Game 
 * Actor, which you can use to trigger game logic.
