  Well I would need to know what you are loading.

  For the canvas, you take the progress and turn it into an angle.

  An overly simplified version coincidentally:

  " I don't want to have to create event entries to make all the objects...."

  Short of doing that, no.

  Might take a look at the pin behavior, and families, and containers, and blend modes, and...

  We don't have any plugs to handle prefabs for gui's, but everything 2d is doable.

  It's made to be as fast as possible, so collisions are excluded.

  If you need independent particle collisions, make your own emitter with sprites.

  Bullet behavior works well for this.

  It's a known "feature" that function parameters only exist for the function call, and not into the next tick.

  The reasoning is the same function can be called multiple times with different params, within the same tick.

  Best solution is to store the data in a global.

  Functions are triggers.

  They are run before the next event.

  Its first touch below the character, and left or right of it to move that direction.

  Second touch below to jump, and double jump.

  Single touch above to initiate an attack.

  You'll probably have to pinch scale the page to get to the fullscreen button.

  I think the best solution would be making your own keyboard out of sprites.
