N2Add relative motion to the game.

Recap

Learning from previous chapter.

1 Have you ever been in a car at a

junction, and you look out the
window at the car stopped next to
you. Suddenly you feel like your
car is going backward, when in fact
you’ve not actually moved. Instead
it’s the car next to you that is
moving.

This is called relative movement.

This method is used in the flying game you created earlier,
as well as in some 2D computer games, to simulate
movement.
