  All objects should be countable using the .count expression in both CC, and C2.

  As in sprite.count, text.count, not sure but even family.count.

  Nope, you have to clear the canvas.

  Canvas is very fast tough.

  I would guess its because for each is a loop running every tick.

  You would need an event to set that variable first, such as on object touched set variable "istouched" to 1.

  If you do a instance variable compare, like if object sprite variable "istouched" =1, then do a sub event with on touch end, that object should be in the sol.

  I would wager you could use an instance variable, rather than "Is Touching Object" as well.

  You have to realize that making an app is generally much easier than making a game, so in that regard C2 has all you would need.

  On the other hand C2 lacks a a few things you would want for making an app, such as a number of gui forms, etc.

  Not that that isn't doable. There are quite a number of libs out there that could possibly be converted for C2 use.

  The only thing that would be questionable is security for such an app.

  Here's the basic formula: Pendula

  As I recall you'll need to use cos rather than sin for C2's system.

  No, sorry. It doesn't get any better, unless the sound stops.
