Time for action — modifying the UpdateGame method

To modify the UpdateGame method, we will follow the ensuing steps:

We need to modify the UpdateGame method in the mainClass.monkey file.
```
Method UpdateGame:Int()
```
Check if a random number is equal to 100 and the current active bombs are not more than the level number.
```
If Rnd(0,100) > 99 And (GetBombsCount() < levelNumber) Then
```

Create a new bomb.

CreateBomb()
Endif
UpdateLaunchers()
UpdateBombs()
UpdateRockets()
UpdateExplosions()

If no city is left, remove all rockets, bombs, and explosions, and set the game mode to gmGameOver.

If GetCityCount() = 0 Then
RemoveRockets()
RemoveBombs()
RemoveExplosions()
gameMode = gmGameOver
Endif

Check if the next level is reached by comparing levelNumber times 10 with the total number of destroyed bombs.
```
If totalBombsDestroyed >= (levelNumber * 10) Then
```
