Hi Dan,
You need to learn collision detection.. animating the bullet is
easy.. Checking if the bullet hits something is a little more complex.
To make explosions, check out any fireworks examples you can find.. same
thing..
As a suggestion, find some docs on Gaming development.. these are
fundamental things you need to learn for game designing..
