Submission for the Enter the Gungeon gun design contest
Name: The Squid Gun
(Alternate name: The Humble Humboldt)
Flavor text: You're a Gun Now
Description: Shoots blinding ink normally, and a long tentacle when charged. -- This gun was created when a hapless squid latched onto a shotgun barrel and got its beak stuck. Whatever works, right?
Base max ammo: 270
Clip size: 15
Damage: 8 (uncharged) / 16 (charged)
Range: moderate (uncharged) / infinite (charged)
Knockback: low
Firing speed: moderate
Spread: low (uncharged) / none (charged)
Effect:
-Regular shot: Fire blobs of ink that blind enemies, causing them to fire more slowly. Each hit lowers enemy firing speed by 3%, up to a maximum 15%.
-Charged shot: Fire a long tentacle, which pierces and deals damage to any enemies in its path. Charged shots take only one bullet each.
-Synergy: Damage increases by 25% if the player also has the Mega Douser.
This is my first time really doing sprite art (and my first time animating something), so I think I did an alright job of it - I wasn't sure if there was a specific framerate the animations were supposed to match, but the animations in the template look most natural at 12~15 FPS.
