[RELEASED] VariaBULLET2D Complete Projectile System

This is the official support thread for my newly released asset: VariaBULLET2D Complete Projectile System.

https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#!/content/152528





WHAT IS VARIABULLET2D?

It's a full-featured system for creating bullet (and laser) shot patterns, movement behaviors, collisions and animations for any 2D game type.

-----------------

Put simply the system is highly extensible at the coding scale, but is also highly visual and most of the patterns and behaviors can be set in the editor.

The system works equally for player1 ships, bosses, platformers, run n' gun, bullethell, vertical/horizontal/omnidirectional shooters... basically any kind of 2D game that requires projectiles.

-----------------------

Hey man, would it be a lot of work to put in define for pool boss instead of integrated pooling solution? Unibullethell has it, it's quite convenient and by the way the code looks i don't think it was hard to integrate for someone that knows what he is doing, the api is really nice. Not that your solution is not good, it just sucks to not have things uniform for people using multiple assets.
