  Separate the UI elements into it's own layer. Set parallax to 0, 0 & scale rate to 0. This way they will stand still as Head Up Display (HUD).

  Save game state (whole game changes) into slot & load it later and you still need a local storage to store that data "locally".

  + System: Every 3 seconds

  -> System: Save game to slot "mysave"

  + System: On start of layout

  -> System: Load game from slot "mysave"

  Good job for generated maze one. Another one with gorilla seems confusing since the control isn't feel responsive

  Have a look: dropbox.com/s/lsff0sd6fu4awuw/random_spawner.capx

  So in the example I disabled pick random instance and use what sugested by ROJO. Feeding for each ordered by random 2 loops iteration to get 2 random instances (loopindex 0 to loopindex 1). So if you want to pick 3 random instances change random value & loop comparison to 2.

  Probably you want to use create object command rather than using spawn command which is more flexible.

  Check the condition whether it trigger correctly. Try tracking objects in debugger to make sure their existence.

  Separate them into different animation names or frames within an object should do fine.

  Create a 'Family' then add those objects into family so the event script only need to overlap test with just 'Family' object.

  It just aesthetic judgement whether extra information won't clutter entire game look.
