    a logic subsystem operatively coupled to the touch display; and

    a data-holding subsystem holding instructions executable by the logic subsystem to;

    determine an action vector having a vector direction pointing from the lift-up location to the touch-down location and a vector magnitude equal to a distance from the lift-up location to the touch-down location; and

    display a game action on the touch display, the game action originating at a game object on the touch display and proceeding in the vector direction with an action amplitude derived from the vector magnitude.
