  This tutorial about how the rotating gravity in Airscape was done might be relevant.

  It's not supported in Construct 2. It's possible in Construct 3 using its new Binary Data object.

  The pixel size is the actual physical size of the display, so if you want to design artwork that will look good on those screens, use the pixel size.

  Memory use does not directly affect performance. It's a separate measurement.

  As far as I'm aware .m4a audio is still supported on iOS and I have not seen any announcements from Apple about dropping support for it. Please provide a link to any such announcement if it really exists. We will need a full bug report following all the guidelines to be able to investigate any further.

  The viewport size probably won't actually affect performance - if it's letterboxing to the size of the device's screen, it still has to draw the same number of pixels, regardless of the viewport size.

  It's probably more important to pick an aspect ratio that matches the target devices.

  All new features are only added for the C3 runtime. If you're still using the C2 runtime you won't see any new features until you switch the project to the C3 runtime.

  Else doesn't make any sense after a loop. I don't know what you'd expect it to do or even how you'd define what it does. A loop is a procedure, not a condition, so it's not applicable to ask if the condition was met.

  Each individual touch is given a separate touch ID, so you can differentiate them by their ID.

  The project is already around 25 mb of global memory usage (around 28 while playing any level). Is this alarming or relatively normal for something with only 4 levels and aiming to have around 25 ?

  Given most devices have at least 1GB of memory, this is less than 3% usage, which is tiny and absolutely nothing to worry about.

  Check it supports the C3 runtime, which is the default.

  AFAIK it's always been disabled. You don't need it to open dev tools or inspect a particular element though, since the dev tools element picker can do that too.

  The system action Set canvas size can change the viewport size, but you don't have to use it to display an entire layout - you can do that by changing the layout scale instead.
