Actually Noxid, if it's alright with you, I'd really like to make use of your shotgun in my mod. I was planning on such a weapon, but seeing as one has already been completed and appears to be very stable... Of course, full credit given, any links or statements you'd like included in the readme, or any limitations you'd feel the need to have enforced on customizing the weapon too. All with your permission, that is.
My mod is a complete redesign of the original Cave Story, focused on exploration. It plays much like any of the metroid games do. It includes many systems that act as progressive impasses which the player must acquire a weapon (or tool), an upgrade to quote, or inventory item to be able to pass through. For instance, various blocks which only break by damage from a specific weapon. Currently, I have four such block types working.
My reason for asking this of you is I'd like to use your weapon as a replacement for the bubbler (which the player will obtain in the sandzone). However, I would also like to be allowed to replace the projectile sprites, weapon sprite, and icons, as I wanted this scatter-weapon to be energy based, perhaps electrical. I would also like to know if it is feasible to allow these projectiles to ricochet (but not climb slopes) without being affected by gravity.
Thank you for your time, and I really do like your own mod. I'm guessing "further expansion" is going to occur in that difficult to reach crevasse in the ceiling just to the right of the entrance. ^_^
I'd also like to thank you for your tutorials and library files, as they've been very helpful!
