Weapon Systems | GameMaker

Are you looking to create an action-packed shooting game? In this tutorial, we lay the foundations for a robust and customizable combat system in the GameMaker engine. Get creative as we show you how to build a shooting range demo with an array of unique guns.

This tutorial will cover:
Making a gun object which points towards the mouse and moves with knockback
Creating bullets and a muzzle flash effect
Using structs to make all the properties of the weapon fully and easily customizable

By the end of the video, you’ll have created a system which could be used in any action game and can be adapted to almost every weapon type with very little effort.
