So I'm creating a top down shooter similar to Smash TV. The player will be able to move and shoot in any direction simultaniously. I want to use the arrow keys to move, and the mouse to aim and shoot.

Currently, I have the player moving about the screen and facing the mouse, but my attepts to create a bullet object that travels toward the mouse when clicked have resulted in nothing but failure and frustration.

If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

Can you show us some of your code? In particular how you are currently attempting to "fire the bullets" in the mouse's direction?

make a structure that includes bullet info, like direction and position and size, etc, also include x/y which will be the "target" for the bullet, then, when the player clicks the mouse, set the target x, y to the mouse position, then point the sprite to there, and move it
