Hi again everyone!
So I need to make lasers for this game:

I want the final boss to have lasers that look like this (spoilers for those playing Kirby and the Forgotten Land):
Anyone know how to attempt this?

Also I’ll make an example if you want I struggled to get my head around lines and images a lot :o

You can have an invisible sprite that follows the player which the boss will target with the lasers (eg draw the lines to that sprite position). For drawing the lines you can look at the code for catch flies it might help.

Hmm. My first thought is to make sprites of the lasers and check if they are overlapping the sprite.

Yes! Please send an example (pls).

If you want me to make it more of a burst action I can do that as well

Wow! This is… really, REALLY close to what I was thinking of. I kind of wanted the blast to disappear afterwards eg. (Sorry again Kirby and the Forgotten Land spoilers! It’s just too good of an example…):
See, is there a way to add the pulsing effect too? Sorry if it’s too much!

So, I also needed to add lasers to my game, and I tried but failed. I’m not sure what I did wrong ☹

Wait I got it, my problem was that the Screen sprite was still only 16 by 16 pixels instead of 160 by 120
