I wonder if its possible to get some visuals for the lua sources too?
Sorry I don't follow you. Lua isn't a shoot 'em up or even a game.
Dont worry, just wanted to know if its possible to get that lua code into your app and kind of use it in any way. Thanks for clarify and keep up the good work!
Oh I see! That does make sense, and I don't see why not. You should give it a go, and I'll try to run it as well and see what happens.
There still seem to be some functions missing, e.g.
What framework are you using?
iam pretty fine with what i have setup. I have construct2 and the bulletML Plugin. Everything works well. I just found some LUA code inside some off these XML bulletML Pattern and was curius about that. Its maybe related to the shot speed and ranking and not so much about the bulleet patterns itself.
Very cool!
