360 Aiming in Top-Down Shooter (Hotline Miami clone)

I think you will notice a bigger difference in results the longer the distance of the bullet travels. So doing some target practice testing up close you can't see a difference, but taking long shots you could.

I did it in a different way. I used bouncing ball movement with "Bullet" checked in movement properties and it works like a charm, I think that it is a best method for this case. Thanks guys for ideas.

Easiest solution is always the best,
we sometimes tend to overcomplicate things

Very cool example Snail!

This other example I was referring was targeting (and colliding) with floating precision too

(maybe lower "speed" value of the bullet object to see better..)

but I guess muskalator was happier with an equally-good-looking-but-easier-to-handle solution

I would just note that using the physics movements for bullets will have poor performance results on the mobile runtimes..
