/**
* This enum encapsulates all the sound effects of a game, so as to separate the sound playing
* codes from the game codes.
* 1. Define all your sound effect names and the associated wave file.
* 2. To play a specific sound, simply invoke SoundEffect.SOUND_NAME.play().
* 3. You might optionally invoke the static method SoundEffect.init() to pre-load all the
* sound files, so that the play is not paused while loading the file for the first time.
* 4. You can use the static variable SoundEffect.volume to mute the sound.
