This is a little charging weapon that I made for the modding competition. It's a charging weapon that freezes anything it touches. It damages the first target it touches due to the extreme cold. However, it quickly heats up and merely freezes any actor it touches afterwards. The new version of this gun shoots even colder bullets that damage all enemies it touches! A few images for those of you who need to see them:

I did intend to make an animation for the weapon to indicate what level of charge it is at. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to change the frame of an HDFirearm using Lua...

Thanks to Miggles for making the new gun sprite.

Yeah. It was supposed to. Although... I probably should make some kind of effect to show that they're being frozen... I'll work on that.

I'm not entirely happy with the base colors, but there's a resprite of your frost gun. You'll have to redo the offsets and apply changes to make it animated, but I'd say it'd be worth your time. If anything, it'd boost your chances of winning if you don't end up winning by default. :P

Thanks, but... It IS okay to update a mod that's entered during a competition while the competition is still going on, right? But yeah. Thanks.
