  So what's your question?

  You need to use an array. Add (push) new scores, sort by highest score and display the first 10. Save/load this array in Local Storage as JSON.

  The best you can do is select a group of objects on the layout, right click and align them or change their size..

  You can use Sprite.Sine.CyclePosition expression.

  For example, for horizontal movement:

  Sprite.Sine.CyclePosition is between 0.25 and 0.75 -> Sprite set animation "Left"
  Else -> Sprite set animation "Right"
  

  I also recommend LiteTween addon (instead of Sine), you can make much nicer looking movements with it. And it has events like "LiteTween on end", which you can use to pause your enemy.

  You can use Browser.Language expression.

  This event fills the array with consecutive numbers.

  x=0, value=0

  x=1, value=1

  x=2, value=2

  etc.

  Oh, you also need to stop simulating controls immediately after the thumbstick is released.

  Here is the fixed capx:

  Different (smaller) tilemaps for each level will use less memory.

  But it depends on the number of tiles and their size. If the entire tilemap is like 1000x1000 px or less, then splitting it into smaller tilemaps may not be worth it.

  ProgressBar is the easiest of all form controls to replicate.

  Just add a sprite or a tiled background and do this:

  ProgressBarSprite set width to (currentProgress/maximumProgress)*barWidth

  .

  For example:

  healthBar set width to (player.health/100)*250

  Didn't I answer this question in another post? :)

  Anyway, here is another way to do this - instead of distances in pixels use angles. For example, small ship "width" is 5 degrees, big ship "width" is 30 degrees, distance between them should be 5-15 degrees etc.

  

  Here is a demo:

  I think you need to add another event - "For each EnemyCardnPieces" between events 767 and 768.

  Otherwise in event 768 you are picking just one CardsnPieces instance (closest to the first picked instance of EnemyCardnPieces).

  Also, I don't know what's the situation with layers in your game. If these objects are on layers with different parallax, you might need to re-calculate their coordinates..

  You need two instance variables - MaxHealth and Health.

  Then you can add an event like this:

  For each Enemy
   Enemy Health<(Self.MaxHealth/5) -> HealthBar set animation to "Red"
   Else -> HealthBar set animation to "Green"

  Exactly the same way you add global variables :)

  Just select an event and press V. Or add a global variable and move it inside an event.

  With Scale Outer the screen can be wider or taller than the window size in your project. So you can't reset tiledbackground position to x=0, you need to start from something like -20% of your window width.

  Here is the fixed file:

  You didn't add "start" and "end" image points to your SliderBackMusic sprite.

  Also, I suggest you make a bigger collision polygon for the AdjusterMusic slider, to make it easier to grab it with mouse.
