Unity Asset – 2D Shooter Bullet and Weapon System

The 2D Shooter Bullet and Weapon System asset provides you with a highly customisable bullet pattern and weapon system, custom weapon configuration editor with inventory manager, along with a bullet pooling manager which is simple to drop into your Unity game or project and start using right away.

With so many options to tweak and customise, you can create endless combinations of bullet patterns and weapon types, with top performance, even on mobile platforms.

In addition, you also get a customizable player movement script which allows for multiple modes of player movement controls (top down shooter, shoot-em-up/shmup, and target tracking for usage of the system on enemies as well as players), as well as a multitude of extra sprites, SFX, prefabs and demo scripts relating to the 5 x demo scenes that are included.

The system allows for many different bullet pattern configurations and customizations, as well as ricochet (bounce) and bullet impact effects like sparks and blood. The WeaponSystem.cs script contains sliders for every property on the weapon allowing you to easily control properties like bullet count, fire rate, bullet randomness, spread, offsets, and even alternate properties like spread size on an alternating timer system. There are also options to assign ammunition, magazine configurations, reload options and SFX on the weapon configurations you create to fire your custom bullet patterns. This amounts to a huge number of possible bullet patterns and weapon types.

The WeaponSystem script also makes it easy for your player to change weapon types in-game. Either use the built-in weapon configuration and inventory assignment system (with support to re-order, add or remove weapon configurations in-editor to use in-game), or simply set the weapon preset property to one of the 13 default preset weapon types/bullet pattern types.
