My Bullet Hell Game I made in Game Maker 8 pro

Made it myself, though it kinda surprised me when I messed with how the orbs (the first 8 balls orbiting the boss) follow their path, resulted in a different patten despite using the same orbiting calculation thingy, and I decided to use it for when the boss is hurt really bad.
The attacks are randomized, but based on the boss health, may not be used.
It's on easy mode....
Boss sprite is from Touhou
Bullets sprites are from somewhere i forgot
Green dot is me.....
Blue dots are bullets of death
The red thing that happens sometimes is a special attack
The live counter (which starts at 20), is located on the top of the window of the game.

How do you make bullet patterns? i'm new with GM and i don't have the smallest idea

[sirmastercombat]

@MrGigaflare There are several ways to make patterns, in my case, I made several orbs that shoot towards the boss and move in a orbit for a set amount of time before changing patterns and direction of orbit and distance from boss.

@sirmastercombat Any tutorials? i'm afraid i don't fully get it, i'm a sprite/pixel artist, so i just need to get the game mechanics going to complete my game, any help would be awesome, and i could credit you of course

[sirmastercombat]

@MrGigaflare Well, I'll try to make a tutorial then.

[MaxArceus]

@sirmastercombat ok

[sirmastercombat]

@MaxArceus I drew myself.

[sirmastercombat]

@MaxArceus Well, it was temporary. I do have a new (but not so good) player sprite.

[MaxArceus]

@sirmastercombat No but I mean, you could have just used a picture from internet. Or make it yourself just use a small mask of course.

I'm going to audio replace this soon. Don't worry, it'll be a good song to replace with.

@MaxArceus Does it look like I have a Pixel artist at the time?
