Put the sprite in a family on its own, then reposition it on the new sprite overlapping a member of that family.

Is this the first touch problem described here https://www.scirra.com/manual/109/audio - my experience of trying to use sound on iOS browsers is it is a very effective way of extending your vocabulary of swear words. I spent hours on a previous project trying to get something that works trivially on every other browser, even Internet Exploder.

I have long considered it likely that Mapple deliberately XXXXed up parts of the Javascript browser in Safari to stop people releasing JS games on it (keeping control of the Mapple store) and that's why they don't allow a Chrome browser (Chrome on iOS is the Safari renderer with a Chrome interface).

I'd look at JSON as an intermediary to store your content.

Have you tried fre:ac ? I find that usually works okay, though I tend to use its batch conversion to generate ogg and m4a files rather than using C2's built in importers.

Have a look at my Asteroids game and some of the others - follow the blog link, there is source code you can look at.

There's also things like openclipart and opengameart. Though a lot of the store stuff looks really good and its mostly cheap. I wouldn't spend too much though, get the core first

Can I suggest (i) My Games - if you want to upload a new version then it's not easy to find it and (ii) a general search so you can play a known game ?

Can we amend the documentation, or request it. I occasionally come across things which need some clarity, e.g.

angle(x1, y1, x2, y2) Calculate angle between two points

doesn't actually specify which way round it is, is it the angle from x1 to x2 or x2 to x1 ?

There's a 3D tutorial (which uses one of my old games, a remake of Deathchase as an example )

It depends. If you can put them all in the same object - if they are similar enough so that you can have instance variables to determine their features and so on, then you can do it by using multiple animations - your green, purple, yellow things are all different animations. If they are so different they really have to be different objects you can't shortcut the way you do it.

Partly depends on what its behind. If the object can cover the menu then just put it behind it and scroll it down and up (how do you "untap" .....). If it doesn't, then you will have to break it up into bits and make them visible as they get below a certain coordinate.

That's crazy...

Well, to be honest it didn't look anything that would take days of work ...... but good luck to him (or her)
