The shooting game in Scratch
Sorter
shooting game
The appeal of flight shooting games lies in providing players with the experience of piloting aircraft such as planes or helicopters and engaging in aerial combat. The high-speed flight experience, diverse weapon use, and dogfights with enemy planes all contribute to heightening the player’s excitement. Flight shooting games often aim to replicate realistic air combat experiences, which requires the recreation of detailed aircraft controls and explosion effects. To express these elements using Scratch, programming knowledge is necessary to recreate realistic aircraft controls and explosion effects. Let’s take a look together!

A shooting game in which you control a tank to destroy the enemy.
Because the number of enemies and the barrage of bullets are overwhelmingly large, it is a good idea to destroy each enemy individually while controlling the number of enemies you face at a time by making good use of obstacles. Since you can continue playing immediately, you will get addicted and play continuously.
Movement - Arrows or WASD keys
Aiming - move mouse
Shoot the bullet - click mouse

So, there's this shooting game where you face off against one enemy, and apparently, there are 7 stages or forms. The barrage of bullets coming at you is just mesmerizingly beautiful. You can shoot continuously, and the cool part? You can actually erase the enemy's bullets! If you get the hang of where they come from, dodging them gets easier. Watch out for the big laser attacks though. If the enemy glows red, just stay above them and you're good. I do wish there was some way to change bullet power or something. But for a first-time creation, the quality's amazing!

Use the space key for a basic attack, and try keys 1-0 or letters Q, W, E, R, T, Y, U, I, O, P, A, S, D, F, G, H, J, K for special attacks. Start by letting a few enemies walk around, then use the space key to attack. If they’re tough to defeat, switch to a special weapon to wipe them out. Have any ideas for new weapons or moves?

Pilot a fighter jet in a dogfight. The background music and sound effects are very realistic and exhilarating. Only arrow keys are used to control the jet. When an enemy plane comes in sight, it will automatically start missile attacks. If an enemy plane comes in close range, it will fire machine guns. Flying straight makes you easy target to enemy missiles, so the trick is to lock on to enemies at a distance while turning left and right.

This is a unique shooting game. The ship is fixed in the center of the screen and shoots down meteorites that come at you from 360°, so it’s like a fixed turret style. Press the spacebar to make continuous shots, which is very pleasurable. Control is very easy, as your ship rotates in line with the mouse. Simple and fun. It’s an excellent project; the creator seems to understand the essence of shooting games.

This is a reproduction of the Invaders game, which was released in 1978 and became a sensation. I suddenly remembered playing this game at a café in my hometown while enjoying a chocolate parfait. It's truly a retro game of retro games!
Similarities with the original:
UFOs occasionally appear from the top of the screen.
Unique BGM is reproduced.
You can only shoot one beam until it hits or disappears off-screen.
Differences from the original:
The bunkers (defensive barriers) do not melt when hit by enemy beams or characters.
The speed of enemy characters remains the same even when they reach the bottom row (they speed up when there's only one left).
There are no points.
Despite its simplicity, this game has a deep and enjoyable taste.

How to Play:
The game had issues with lag, but Scratch 3.0 fixed it. Some sprites might still be invisible, and I'll check it when I can. Instructions are shown in the game before starting.
This is my best game! It’s a chaotic space shooter with an upgrade system and tougher enemies over time. I worked on it for months!

It's a shooting game where you battle in planes. Your aircraft stays in the center of the screen. Enemy jets come at you from all sides, and you have to intercept them by firing missiles. To control the game, simply aim the nose of your aircraft with your mouse. Clicking the mouse button or pressing the spacebar will launch a missile. Every time an enemy jet hits your plane, you lose 10 life points. You start with 100 points, so if you get hit 10 times, it's game over. There are cool features like full-scale attacks, speed-boosted missiles, and shields. Use them wisely to score high! Here's how you control the special actions:
Rotate aircraft: Drag the mouse
Fire missile: Click the mouse or press the spacebar
Deploy shield: Press the S key
Ultimate destruction attack: Press the U key or click the "Ultimate Destruction" button

Hey guys, I've got a cool shooting game to tell you about - it's called "Dragoon"! This is the creator's first game, and trust me, it's super fun. The controls are easy: use arrow keys to move and hit the Z key to shoot missiles. Start the game or make selections with the spacebar. Laser 1 is super powerful because it goes through enemies, and Laser 2 grows gradually which is pretty awesome. Grab the green capsules, and they'll charge up in the bottom left. Use the C key and based on how many you have, you can unleash: 1 for a laser, 2 for a missile, and 3 for a shield. So strategize and make the most of it! There are 3 levels in total, so aim to clear them all! The beats in the background are from "Maou Tamashi", so you can totally groove while playing. Oh, and if you dig this game, the creator also made "Dragoon 2". Definitely give the sequel a shot if you're into it.

In a way, it's a bullet shooter of the dodge-around type, like Undertale.
The story written by the author is hilarious.
One day, Shoboneko and Shoboneko's brother were playing dodgeball. One day, Shoboneko and Shoboneko's brother were playing dodgeball (you can't play dodgeball, it's just chuckball now). Somehow he lost his temper and started to attack with magic. Shoboneko couldn't use magic, so he could only deflect the attack
"Somehow" the brother got mad and started attacking with magic, and it was too much
