      It warms my heart that people are still making memes about decades-old games.

        Vampire Survivors, the breakout hit game on so many platforms now, has a full DLC based on Contra. It’s still very much on the minds of everyone who loves this stuff.

          Well, obviously, it was a typo. No one is 2,555 years old.

      “Flamethrower” (the wavy path ball gun) is perfect for a couple parts of the game where you can lay down. You fire and ever shot hits, and you are never in the path of enemy bullets or mobs.

        Does it do this better than the spread? I’m trying to think of what part of the game this advice would work…

      MUSHA has this with the orb circle shield/weapon thing (I never learned the name). I used to think this was bad game design but even if it was an accident it’s interesting trying to bend your way around a game to keep from picking up stuff you dont want.

        MUSHA has a killer soundtrack.

      Tsk tsk. You forgot the start button at the end. Or select then start, if you have friends.

      I only ever beat it with a friend in 2 player. He really carried me, it probably would have been much easier for him in 1P!

        I used to play with a friend. But we were young. Wonder if it would seem any easier now? Haha.

    Spread is brokenly good, but I like playing with Laser too. It feels good to land the entire beam on a boss. Especially in the arcade version, laser kills bosses fast.

    You know how you keep missing the exploding bridge jump on the first level? You gotta stop shooting the machine gun while you jump. Makes you go a little further.

    Spread gun is even better if you manage to offset the spread. It can only have x bullets active at once, so if you stack the bullets it will turn into the highest DPS machine gun in the game

    I won’t start over. But, I’ll hate play until I get another one.
