Build it yourself: wind

What we are doing

Your game, your rules. Add wind: a small sideways push on the lander, changing every few seconds.

Your turn

While flying, push the lander sideways a little every frame (at most 0.02 per frame). Pick a new random wind every few seconds (at most 5), and show it on the screen with a text that starts with Wind.
