Move the following code out of the if statement:

    
            temporizador += (float)gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.Milliseconds;

The problem is that your delay timer is only accumulating time when you press your fire button. You want it to accumulate time at every update.

I also notice from the video you linked that there appears to be a limit on the bullets the character can have active at any given time. If you want to implement that, then you will need to maintain a counter that decrements everytime you shoot and then increments everytime your bullets hit an object or boundry. Then add a check to your if statement that only fires a bullet when the counter is above 0.

I would like to get a similar shoot like this:

I have almost achieved, but is not as good as I'd like, when I press the shoot button, the first time not work. This is my shoot functi

    
            if (Keyboard.GetState().IsKeyDown(Keys.Space))  
        
                        {  
        
                            float intervaloTiempo = 300f;  
        
                            temporizador += (float)gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.Milliseconds;  
        
                            if (intervaloTiempo < temporizador)  
        
                            {  
        
                                Disparo disparo = new Disparo(juegoActual, posicion, Enumerados.TiposDisparo.Basico, gameTime);  
        
                                juegoActual.Components.Add(disparo);  
        
                                temporizador = 0f;  
        
                            }  
        
                        }

Any idea?
