How can i build a laser charge?

Hello, guys. Please, anybody has ideas to create a shmup-style laser charge? Below are 3 screenshots with examples.

I built a sprite of a laser with the height of the screen (for a vertical shmup), so the laser sprite always goes until the top. BUT I saw in many games the "laser head" stopping when it hits an object. I'm trying to study ways to do this.

Best.

Yes, it's a way. Thanks! :)

I like either the Tower Defense method on the Demos section.
