We were able to make the dragon flaps its wings by looping through 4 of its images/costumes.
Homework:
1. Right now the dragon is flapping its wing too fast. You need to make it flaps slower. How to make it slower:
  1. Inside main.py, look at how we made the creation of birds slower. Look at “create_bird(self): function on how we use “self.create_bird_timer”. Try to understand this code.
  2. Inside main.py, look at how we made the creation of clouds slower. Look at “create_cloud(self): function on how we use “self.create_cloud_timer”. Try to understand this code.
  3. Inside player.py:
    1. Inside __init__(), you need to create “self.flap_wing_timer = 10”
    2. Inside “update()” right now it is calling below code all the times
    3. ```
    self.image = self.next_costume()
```
4. Somehow by using timer you need to make call to above code less frequent.
