Ever wanted to create a rogue-like shoot 'em up game like Vampire Survivors? In Part 6 of our guide, we will go through how to create add-on features for our characters, including selecting a character and spawning their unique weapon. You can also find Part 5 of our guide here, where we went through how to create characters and pick-ups, including a leveling system for our player characters and also a way to damage them.
