  Any object that draws to the screen, but Tiled Backgrounds still count as 1 even if they're big, so generally it's on-screen sprites.

  It has X and Y expressions just like the Mouse object. e.g. Mouse.X and Touch.X. It should show up in the floating expressions panel like it does with Mouse as well.

  WAVs must be in PCM format. OGGs should import OK and MP3s will be transcoded to AAC... could you share the files so we can try importing them ourselves?

  It's difficult to save an entire level to WebStorage - I'd suggest just saving the level number they're reached, or stage, checkpoint, etc.

  Yeah, are you using iOS 5? That's much faster.

  Also, you have to remember mobiles have much weaker hardware than PCs. It looks like you're creating a lot of objects. Try putting in an object counter. You should try to keep it under around 50 objects on screen at any one time to have really good performance on a mobile. You have to specially design your games for mobiles - you can't assume any old game you make that runs well on your PC will run well on a mobile.

  Interesting idea! Maybe we can better integrate this to Construct 2 in future.

  If you have projects which no longer open send them to us and usually we can fix them (one or two things might have gone missing though).

  This bug has cropped up from time to time recently and obviously it's one we really want to fix. However nobody seems to have been able to reproduce it, and I've never seen it on my own computer. This makes it extremely difficult to fix. If you can make a backup of your project and find a sequence of steps that always breaks it, that's great - we can probably fix it immediately if anyone can get it down to that.

  I've seen this occasionally myself, but it doesn't happen in any other browsers. I think it might be a Chrome bug, but I'll see if it can be worked around.

  Yep it's on our todo list, but it's actually fairly straightforward to fake it with sprites: just spawn loads of small sprites with a Bullet movement and randomly adjust their speed and angle. That's exactly what the Particles object does for you.

  I've updated the r67 installer to include the fix. If anyone else has this issue then re-download r67 and it should be fixed.
