Uploaded January 2013 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Hey guys how's it goin? In this tutorial I show how to implement platform shooting by the use of the mouse. So depending on which direction the mouse is in that will be the same for your character's arm/gun and when he/she shoots the bullet will go in the way also. Enjoy ^)^
