Contra

Game Details:

The story of "Contra" is set in the future, where the alien creatures "Red Falcon" threaten the safety of Earth. The protagonists, Bill and Lance, are ordered to go deep behind enemy lines to destroy their base. The game proceeds in a horizontal scrolling manner, with a total of 8 levels, including side-scrolling, overhead, and 3D corridor perspectives.

Players enhance their combat power by collecting floating letter weapons (such as S spread shot, L laser, F flame, etc.). The game is known for its fast pace, precise judgments, and high difficulty, and the well-known "30 lives cheat code" (↑↑↓↓←→←→BA) has also become a classic legend among players.

Editor's Recommendation:

"Contra" is not just a game, but also a childhood memory for a generation of players. Whether it's the camaraderie brought by two-player cooperation, or the tension and excitement in jumping and shooting, it's unforgettable. The game has a fast pace and excellent handling, and each level is full of challenges and surprises. For players who like old-fashioned action shooting games, this is a must-play classic.

Game Walkthrough:

• Weapon Selection: It is recommended to prioritize obtaining the S (Spread) shotgun, which has a large range and strong power, and is a tool for clearing levels; the L (Laser) has high damage but is difficult to hit.
• Jumping Rhythm: Precise jumping is required in multi-platform scenarios, be sure to familiarize yourself with enemy refresh points and attack rhythms.
• Boss Battles: Most bosses have fixed attack patterns, observe and then focus your firepower on the gaps; more people working together makes it easier to break through.
• No-Damage Techniques: Use terrain and weapon coverage to achieve no-damage level clearance; sometimes "pausing" is safer than blindly charging.
• Using Cheats: Enter "↑↑↓↓←→←→BA" on the main interface to get 30 lives, which helps newbies familiarize themselves with the levels.
