Well, how advanced are you in coding?
Have you played with animation frames and variables in script editor?

I suggest you to use one actor to do the whole menu. Then just check the frame with script editor and switch the correct variable when the key is pressed. You can ask more specified help if you need.

haveanimations of each of the four orders you could have them in. Now make a variable or textnumber, but ill be calling it a variable. have create actor set the variable to 0 and the animation to its default. make it so when you keydown or whatever, the variable goes up by one, but if it exeedes 3, it goes to 0. have a draw actor event where when the variable is equal to 0: do first animation, 1:second animation so on up to 3.

then when you have the guy shoot, have it so is the variable is equal to 0: shoot bullet 1, 1: shoot bullet 2 and so on up to 3.

note: the variable, if it's not a textNumber, must be a global intager
