BEST PLAYED ON QZDOOM OR GZDOOM! ZDoom MAY also work, but I would not recommend it, as this mod will utilize true color support. IT WILL LOOK UGLY ON ZDOOM, SO DON'T DO IT! Please.
Hello, sir or madam. Do you long for the days of old where the console wars focused on things like pixel graphics, and something about megabits and chips of the 8 to 16 to 32 variety? Well then look no further! Throw away all those toasters you put on your head claiming to be the answer to virtual reality! Dispose of those 'games' that could pass off as modern art pieces with their 16 different shades of brown! (and gray, but not 50) From here on out, you get to play the games...ON A CARTRIDGE! You HAVE seen the games, right?
You: *duuuh huh huh*
Wrong answer. SHOW 'EM!

Simply press UserKey1/WeaponState1 and all your troubles will vanish without a fight! (Today we celebrate - our Independence Day!) While Equipment Lock is active, you will not pick up any weapon, sub-weapon, or equipment unless it is of the same type currently in your possession. You will know when the system is active when your weapon and sub-weapon have teeny tiny locks on them. If you change your mind and want to grab all the powerups you can attempt to carry, just hit the same key and it will be disabled!
DENIZENS OF BULLET-EYE: - An item capsule you can destroy to provide either health or sub-weapon ammo. Yup, it's a denizen. - A weapon capsule that holds L1 versions of all weapons in Bullet-Eye. Collect them all!* *Note: You cannot actually carry them all. - Rescue survivors to get a health bonus, some Sub-Weapon Ammo, and Bullet-Eye Energy! Do you mind if they pay you in gum? Note: The Survivors are not just heads! - Energy Screens block all damage done to you as long as the shield holds. You can also find Partial Energy Screens from some enemies that have half the capacity of normal Energy Screens. You're gonna need 'em! SomeDoomMonstersHead.tga - SOME default Doom monsters! OH MAN! - Strike Orbs are found in place of certain items, but most commonly can be found from defeated enemies. They boost either Attack (Red), Defense (Green), or Speed (Blue). - Weapon Enhancers add 1 level to your current selected weapon. Think of it as a wildcard for when you just can't find another powerup for the weapon you are holding. I wish I made that graphic! Curse you Star Fox 2!
Why is the mod named Bullet-Eye? I thought it sounded neat. I was trying to think of a name and I took a good 30+ minutes using combinations of words that included Gun, Blaze, Force, Soldier, EVERYTHING, etc.! And then I Googled each combination to see if it has been done or if it was a mainstream game. YUP! ALMOST EVERYTHING WAS! Then I just settled for Bullet-Eye, which I forgot if anything else used that...ANYWAY, I liked it and went with it. Then I later thought it may seem similar to GoldenEye...GOOOOOOOSH! Oh well. It also sounds like bullseye.

Coding Help:
TerminusEst13 - Would not have done so many of the ACS tech without his help! Thanks!
OLD INFO:
Spoiler:
BUT SERIOUSLY: This is a heavy WIP project that I wanted to post early to get some feedback while I work on my submission for the '20 Monsters Challenge' project. Now the demo is REALLY short and doesn't have all the basic features I'd want to include, but I hope you enjoy it! I want to capture the SNES feel certain games of that era had. In fact, some of the content here, such as the weapons and item capsules were actually part of a 2D platformer I was working on! I'd never finish that, so I thought, why not use them here?
FUTURE PLANS & FEATURES: - Tons of unique weapon powerups to utilize, all with their own upgrades! Make enemies run with the Chaser Missiles! Be rewarded with precision shooting using the Chainer! Bite down on crime with the Iron Jaws! - Unmarked secrets! No secret will be marked on the automap! Get that true feel for old school games, with all the mysteries that come with it! But don't go trying to move that truck, there's nothing under it. - SNES & Genesis music only for the main levels! It's time to get RETRO!
MAYBE: - Sub-Weapons will have their own levels. - A permanent armor system. Either find different pieces for a number of slots or make one slot, such as a helmet, that alters damage reduction and adds a special effect. The special effects could also be used in an accessory system. - Custom enemies. I would like to do this, but it would be very time consuming, as I would want to replace ALL enemies. - Carry 2-3 weapons at once.
NOTES: All weapons in the demo currently use one weapon sprite. I would either like to change each to their own unique graphic, or simply use a system similar to Contra Doom, except make the pistol in my mod to something more fitting. But how long until someone gets bored of looking at the same thing?! I may reset main weapons on each stage as well, to encourage players to try out new weapons, and not just stick to one throughout the majority of the game. Levels will not follow a specific theme. For example, one could take place in some futuristic base, and the next will be some medieval castle! The HUD is going to change and what is displayed in the screens is just a placeholder.
THERE ARE GOING TO BE SOME BIG CHANGES AROUND HERE: The project has slightly changed! For now, I will just focus on presenting it as a 'weapon' mod. That means it will not include the planned mapset. However, once I complete the basic groundwork of the mod, THEN I will start working on the maps. The good news is that you can play it with any mapset you prefer!
I am eager to hear your feedback. Thank you for your time!

º It will be better if there r diferent weapons to carry and no only pick up and lost there r many weapons that r way to weak to work and more if u have to kill something more than a zombie º The suriken subweapon is cool but can past between colums, ej: the first red bars on the start of the second level º The buster is cool but is way way too short is not worthy when a cyber can attack from way far º The blaze stream is the weakes of all and with that short way short range is like a chainsaw º The only i didnt get was the spread shot, the other were nice but the weapons with own sprite and number to switch to them will be even better º The levek up system can be like pick up 3 spitfire and level up, pickup 6 and level up again it will be better to have to pick up few and not only one, weapons will be super strong in short time and more if u play a megawad º The blaze stream fire sprite need a fix the fire is coming from lower on hand than the weapon
So far is cool but it need lot of tweak to work and more in open levels Keep up the good work
Stream of consciousness feedback before I pass out: Could I ask that you not have spaces in the wad filename? Just a personal peeve of mine since otherwise I have to rename it every time I update it, given I don't use a launcher, and adding quotes to the command line parameters is ugly.
Spread shot looks and sounds weak, despite being roughly as powerful as a fully upgraded Buster (Which does actually look and sound appropriate, so good on that)
Could also use some more dramatic explosions in general, say for barrels.
Blaze Stream is way too damn weak! Looks weak, is weak. Takes way too long to even kill former humans unless you're touching them, which is a bit counterintuitive for weapons inspired by old one-hit platformers. Make it rip, make it do more DOT, do something besides what it already does.
Chasers are too strong. There's no downside to them despite doing as much or more damage than the same fully upgraded buster, spreadshot, which require you to be close range. I reckon it should
Spitfire and Buster seem more or less fine.
HUD could use some work on the whole scaling thing.
Might want to start with a subweapon considering how rarely I actually find the damn things.
I am taking all the feedback in, AND I AM WORKING ON UPDATES THIS VERY MOMENT!
And all I can say is that Blaze Stream has been insulted by the feedback on it, and is now RED HOT with anger! Changes to the weapon are coming!
Hopefully I can fix the HUD scaling issue. It is my first time working with a custom HUD, so if I can't fix it then I will have to look at other options.
I was also thinking of adding a weapon experience system. Using this, you can gain experience for weapons for up to two levels, and once they are leveled, picking up a 'fresh' one will always retain its level, regardless of the fact if you picked up another weapon or not. I think adding in a system to carry more than one weapon would also be useful, but hopefully I can code it.
Crimsondrgn wrote:Also kinda liked the look of the old HUD in the screenshots, any way to get that separate or get it as an option in the mod?
The graphics for it are actually in the WAD, if you'd like to use them. As for an option in the mod to use it, perhaps I can use it for one of the HUD sizes instead of using the current one at each resize level.
Thank you for all the feedback!
EDIT: I made some updates! The changelog, can be found in the main post. I hope you all like them! In the next update, I plan to make a starting sub-weapon, and more main weapons. An accessory system will come in the future as well, and these will grant special abilities when held, such as one that makes Strike Orbs last longer, or another that triples the bonuses gained from Survivors.
This is looking good! The Buster and Blaze Stream now both stand out as appropriately powerful for closer range weapons (I know you didn't do anything to the Buster, that's not my point), and the claw subweapon is also powerful enough to warrant being ammo-limited. The ripper itself might be a bit too powerful, actually. Mag Shurikens and the Chaser could stand to be a little bit more powerful than they are. Maybe a 20% increase or less. Spread Shot also feels much nicer to use now. The outstanding issue that I see currently is that aside from the claw, every weapon takes an unreasonably long time to kill anything stronger than a Hell Knight, basically. Maybe some kind of system like GMOTA where you have a seperate power gauge for temporary stronger EX-modes would be appropriate? That'd require a lot of effort, though.
Since each weapon has its own damage type, I was able to adjust them for stronger enemies, and it seems to be working well. However, that would just be a band-aid fix in the long run, as custom enemies wouldn't be affected by said changes! I may just increase the damage across the board, since this IS a retro style mod, and enemies in SNES era games didn't last too long in most cases. Another solution could be to make the level 3 versions of all weapons gain a large damage boost, while the previous levels retain their current values.
I also increased the damage boost from the Attack Strike Orb, and I believe I should make all orbs more common from enemies.
Edit: Actually, I just thought of something I could do to help out a bit. Sort of...Let's see if I can pull it off and include it in today's update! (If it fits) I already have the graphics and code for it, since it was used in DUMP 3.
11/22/16 (B) -New title music! -Adjusted damage for enemies individually using DamageFactor. -Increased Energy Claw Sub-Weapon range. -Increased health and sub-weapon ammo gains from items. -Added Bullet-Eye Mode. Gather energy from kills to unleash a massive weapon! (Use the Zoom key when you see the Bullet-Eye Emblem)
I also did my first TRUE ACS script for Bullet-Eye mode. It's a simple script, but it works. I just hope I did it right, since I am very inexperienced with ACS.
So i played it now, it was one decent, nice and well, retrospective mod i ever played. Neat work! Also i haven't seen SNES style mod before, so hooray for that!
Spoiler: But gotta show my gripes, sorry!
- Style of the mod resembles SNES style, right? Then i wonder why Genesis musics plays in the mod...
- You know, some of the sound effects doesn't fitting with SNES style except Buster. I guess they still have high quality. Would be nice if you can take some sound effects from real SNES games or make the current sound effects more muffled.
- Every single projectile has no decal, is it intentional?
- It is weird that hands appears from nowhere without animation when i use the Sub-weapons. Intentional flaws for advantage?
- I hope sub-weapons gives you some ammo if you already got one of them.
- Now it's about Bullet-Eye. Gotta love this weapon! Except its shots are not so satisfying; Just leaves vanilla doom bulletpuff and nothing else. Perhaps Make the puff more powerful?
Also... I got this weapon from the cheat, so i want to ask this one thing shamefully; How can i get this weapon?
So that's about it. It's really interesting and can't wait for the update!

1. The style of the mod is mostly SNES, but also the era of the Sega Genesis. It's also difficult to find good music when there isn't a site where they can be previewed easily, like Genesis music at Project2612. (As far as I know) If you have suggestions for a new title theme that sounds action-oriented, I'm open to them! I tried the title theme to Jim Power, but it just didn't have the same kick. 2. I plan to have a number of weapons in the mod, and using pure SNES sound effects would limit me greatly, as I would like each weapon to sound different. Not to mention ripping sounds from the SNES is a pain, and most 'rips' are just the samples used to make the sounds themselves! Otherwise, I would definitely use more. I AM trying to use them more often for other objects such as Item Capsules though! 3. I didn't add decals because I feel it would take away from the retro feel. And I am lazy. Maybe I will go back and change them later if I can find something fitting. 4. I fixed that just for you! 5. This is also fixed! 6. You can get that weapon by killing enemies to build up energy. Once you have enough, the Bullet-Eye emblem will appear. Once that happens, press the ZOOM key to activate Bullet-Eye mode!
Thank you for all the feedback!
---
Finally got some new changes up! I wanted to add another weapon, but it will have to wait until the next update.
11/24/16 -New title pic! -Chaser Missile homing made less aggressive. You now need to have an enemy closer to your crosshair to activate the homing. -Picking up a Sub-Weapon will now grant some Sub-Weapon Ammo. -New types of Weapon Powerup drops have been added. These will instantly grant a level 2 or three weapon. Bosses will always drop a level three weapon, while high tier enemies commonly drop L2 weapons, and uncommonly L3. -Bosses will now always drop a number of health and Sub-Weapon Ammo items upon defeat. -Slightly updated Weapon Powerup sprites. -Energy Screen has been added. While under the effects of an Energy Screen, you will suffer no health damage until the shield is destroyed. -Picking up a weapon you already have a level 3 version of will grant Bullet-Eye Energy. -Max Health Up powerups will spawn in place of Megaspheres. They increase max health by 5. -New Sub-Weapon 'Cross Mine' -New Weapon 'Crush Blast'. Drops from high tier enemies and Weapon Capsules only. -Chaser Missile now only drops from Weapon Capsules and high tier enemies.
A shot of the new weapon powerup types (as explained above):

Is official or custom SNES musics sounds good for you? Such as this one;
2. I plan to have a number of weapons in the mod, and using pure SNES sound effects would limit me greatly, as I would like each weapon to sound different. Not to mention ripping sounds from the SNES is a pain, and most 'rips' are just the samples used to make the sounds themselves! Otherwise, I would definitely use more. I AM trying to use them more often for other objects such as Item Capsules though!
Then making the current sound effects into low quality would be the answer. Since SNES games always had smooth and low quality sound effects.
3. I didn't add decals because I feel it would take away from the retro feel. And I am lazy. Maybe I will go back and change them later if I can find something fitting.
Oh, that's fine, just fine. Leave it as it is. I don't even know what kind of SNES games had such an effect on their maps, except cybernator.
6. You can get that weapon by killing enemies to build up energy. Once you have enough, the Bullet-Eye emblem will appear. Once that happens, press the ZOOM key to activate Bullet-Eye mode!
Now i see! But still it's not quite satisfying because again, vanilla bulletpuffs. I actually thought about some powerful effect for it, V-Gun from Wild Guns! It has one powerful and badass gatling gun you should check out!
This is a really cool concept, but I have a bug to report - entering Bullet-Eye mode doesn't work properly if "Switch Weapons on Pickup" is switched off in Player Setup. You can press the button to trigger it, but all it will do is give you all three Strike Orb powerups without changing your weapons, which you can do indefinitely...until you change primary weapons, at which point the weapon switches properly.
Now, I seem to recall that the ACS inventory function SetWeapon works in Decorate, though I might be wrong. Perhaps that's a better way to trigger the Bullet-Eye weapon swtich?
Spitfire - Fires a single shot. Also has semi-automatic capabilities.
Spread Shot - Fires a fan of three projectiles.
Buster - Shoots out at a medium range and explodes in place.
Blaze Stream - Fires out short range streams of flames.
Chaser Missile - Launches small homing missiles.
Crush Blast - Fires a powerful laser.
Scrap Launcher - Launches out scrap in a spread. (Not auto aimed)
Quick Strike - Fires a fast shot.
Hunting Laser - Fires homing lasers at targets.
Rapid Vulcan - Fires in bursts of 5.
Storm Grenade - Launch an electrified explosive. (Not auto aimed)
Volley Shot - Launches bomblets in an arc.
Viper Wave - Fires weaving plasma shots.
Repeater - Fire two energy pistols rapidly.
Triple Wyvern - Fires a powerful triple burst, but has a high spread.
- Mag Shurikens - Fires a stream of three shurikens.
- Energy Claw - Slash at opponents.
- Cross Mine - Fires energy blasts in 4 directions.
- Scatter Bombs - Throw a cluster of bombs.
- An item capsule you can destroy to provide either health or sub-weapon ammo. Yup, it's a denizen.
- A weapon capsule that holds L1 versions of all weapons in Bullet-Eye. Collect them all!* *Note: You cannot actually carry them all.
- Rescue survivors to get a health bonus, some Sub-Weapon Ammo, and Bullet-Eye Energy! Do you mind if they pay you in gum? Note: The Survivors are not just heads!
- Energy Screens block all damage done to you as long as the shield holds. You can also find Partial Energy Screens from some enemies that have half the capacity of normal Energy Screens. You're gonna need 'em!
- Strike Orbs are found in place of certain items, but most commonly can be found from defeated enemies. They boost either Attack (Red), Defense (Green), or Speed (Blue).
- Weapon Enhancers add 1 level to your current selected weapon. Think of it as a wildcard for when you just can't find another powerup for the weapon you are holding. I wish I made that graphic! Curse you Star Fox 2!
