An N-ZAP '85 remodeled by Sheldon. The design is strangely nostalgic. The original weapon was better suited to a support role, but this version lets you jump right into the fray with aKraken.

The matchmaking range is 125. The game's matchmaking system looks at a team's average matchmaking range value, and matches them against a team with a similar average.
The ink consumption of 0.8% and ink tank capacity of 100% allows players to fire 125 shots before needing to refill the ink supply.
When initially firing the weapon in humanoid form, the first shot takes 3 frames to come out.
When firing from swim form, the first shot takes 11 frames to come out.
The interval between firing and when the player is able to enter swim form or use a sub weapon is 3 frames.
When firing continuously, it shoots a bullet every 5 frames (12 shots per second).
When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.84 units per frame.
After firing, there is a 20 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
Each shot has a base damage of 28.
If a shot is in the air for more than 8 frames after being fired, it loses 0.875 damage per frame until it reaches 14 damage at frame 24.
The bullet hitbox has a radius of 2 units.
The angle its shots can deviate while on the ground is 6 degrees.
The angle its shots can deviate while in the air is 12 degrees.
The outer reticle immediately expands after jumping. After 25 frames, the outer reticle will start shrinking, and will finish shrinking after 70 frames.
The N-ZAP '83 starts off having a 1% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle.
This chance increases by 1% per shot, and maximizes at a 25% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle, meaning that it takes 24 shots to reach minimum accuracy.
When jumping, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle is immediately set to 40%.
Accuracy starts recovering 5 frames after the player stops shooting. The chance to shoot towards the outer reticle decreases by 0.5% per frame, if the chance is not already at the minimum, meaning that it takes 53 frames to reach maximum accuracy. (83 after shooting while jumping.)
Shots initially travel straight at a rate of 22 units per frame for 4 frames. Shots travel straight for 88 distance units.
After that, the shot's velocity is set to 14.495 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it travels.
Ink droplets occur every 110 units.
The frequency at which ink drips from a shot occurs at a rate of 1.4 droplets per shot.
There are a total of 11 different droplet patterns that can be created while firing this weapon.
Droplets that occur within 11 units of the player have a radius of 18 units, and a width of 10 units.
These droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1.2 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.48 if they fell from a height below 30 units.
Droplets that occur when they travel past 200 units of the player have a radius of 16 units.
All other ink droplets have a radius of 11.6 units.
Droplets that are far from the player and all other droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.2 if they fell from a height below 30 units.
If no ink droplets have occurred within 11 units of the player for 4 shots, the next shot the player makes will force a paint droplet to appear at the player's feet.
▲ When equipped, theMain Power Upgearability will now also lessen shot spread variance when firing while on the ground, in addition to the benefits it previously provided.

Support themain weapon with the fire-and-forgetSprinklersub, and bring on the rain delays with theInk Stormspecial!

This weapon is based on the early 1983 version of theFamily Computer, which has square and buttons.
As opposed to theN-ZAP '85 and theN-ZAP '89, the N-ZAP '83 has no real-world equivalent due to the Famicom's zapper being modeled and colored to resemble a real-worldrevolver.
The N-ZAP '83's textures include the same text as the N-ZAP '85, including the copyright year still reading as 1985.
