mouse is down on Android

[Chris Sheffield]

Dan,

This is just a suggestion, not sure if it will help or not. Try adding with messages to your wait command. You could also try touchEnd instead of touchStart. Again, not sure if that would make a difference or not.

On iOS, I simply check if "the mouse is down", and it if is, I exit the loop and award all the points.  This gives the user a way to jump to the end - like a slot machine.
