Constant swiping without lifting finger

nati22

I want to make a game in which the player has a pet, and you can earn points by petting your pet. So when the player swipes constantly on the actor, he/she earns points.

I can't figure out the swiping part. I tried tapping instead, but that way it would take a long time to earn enough points, that's why I want swiping.

Ideally, the player could place their finger on the actor, start swiping up&down vigorously (lol), and points would be added for each swipe? Is this possible?

Thanks, this is sort of what I'm looking for. I'm just not sure how to modify it so that instead of an actor moving, points are added? Right not I use this rule:

if touch is: pressed

change attribute game.points to game.points +2 (I guess my question is where should I put the add points part in the rules?

Hmmm... maybe something like this will work:
