Bullet hell formation [#3 Remake Undertale in GameMaker ]
36This is the second in a short series of remaking the battle system which you see in Undertale in GameMaker.
What is Undertale?
Undertale is a video game made also in GameMaker by Toby Fox where
you play as a child that is being trapped in an unknown world and your job in this linear story is to progress. The difference is that you can genocide monsters, be neutral or even befriend them. This throws the concept of enemies being simply neutral farm on it's head.
// Part 3
This time we have to create bullet hell formations which are the things that spawn the bullets in various ways. To organize we create parent objects for the formations and the bullets to keep it organized. Then we loop an alarm in one example formation. This one will spawn spike bullets that fall down. That is it!
🚧 For the future: This series is under construction. There will is a free downloadable project file for everybody, so you can grab and do whatever you like to do with it (you can credit me, but not necessary). Also, this video series will be handled like my Hotline Miami series. If the views drop off a cliff (that I do see happening) it will be then discontinued.
