(I just saw another game with the exact same issue which had the same loading bar, so I guess it's probably an issue with a game engine and maybe not something you can do anything about.)
Engine is GameMaker Studio 2. I noticed that issue on my phone as well. The event is on mouse left release when on that object. I could likely change it to on mouse press instead of release as a work around. Thanks for pointing it out, something I'll keep in mind to look out for in the next jam.
