onEvent triggered multiple times after screen reload

The project: (Moderator: Project removed by original poster’s request)

Game 1: score grow in relation to screen reload times (adding 1 point each correct click in the first try, 2 in the second, 3 in the third…), rather than a stable 1 point. Target code is line 36 to 104.
The problem seems to be around onEvent() being triggered multiple times. I think the issue is related to event propagation. Is there a preventDefault() in applab?

Nevermind. The student found a bug in one onEvent brackets - if you are having this problem please

  1. Go back and check all onevent() 's “});” is in the right place;
  2. move unnecessary stuff in onEvent() to a separate function.
