In order for any object to reside outside the edges of the world, you need to unbound the world. Refer to the World class constructors for this. Use a graphics editor like Paint.net (preferably one that supports transparencies) to rotate/flip the enemy image to face the direction required.

You could just have the KABOOM object get all its intersecting objects removed from the world. However, if your enemies are close to each other, then it might be better just to have the bullet 'eat' the enemy and add the KABOOM object before removing itself.

heres the the code to make the enemy move towards your "shooter", replace Surivovor with the name of your shooter and change the int dist to how close the shooter has to be to be followed eg: does the zombie always follow the shooter or is it only once it has come closs. hope this helps
