  There was some deep formulas in the Ghost Shooter. I sort of understand it, but I wouldn't have thought of this on my own:

  (Player.X + cos(Player.Angle) * (distance(WindowWidth / 2, WindowHeight / 2, Mouse.AbsoluteX, Mouse.AbsoluteY) * 0.7)

  Appreciate it, but definitely not looking forward to diving head first into some complicated formulas right now :) I want to make subtle and easy games keep it simple for myself and then end user.

  Hey guys & gals,

  I'm new to Construct it seemed like the lesser of many evils that being: GameMaker & GameSalad. However, in the tutorial for Ghost Shooter made me think twice a little as I don't have any programming knowledge, but it also uses some pretty hard to follow formulas in there. I never took Trig so I'm a little lost there. Anyway to do a game like that a bit more simplified?
