It puts the "C*NT" in CONTRA. Only 8.5% of all players have beat this on EASY difficulty. That says it all right there.

Super Cyborg bathes in its inspiration, but that isn't a bad thing. I had a lot of fun with this game, and I adored the alien design. There was so much creativity to the visuals, and especially the backgrounds in a few levels. There are clear patterns for every boss, and the saving system was a great feature. I think the second part of the third boss has a weird movement pattern, and I'm not sure if it's supposed to be awkward to deal with. This game will test your patience, but it's definitely lots of fun on easy mode. I think the music achievement needs some changes, because it requires a weird amount of time for each song. I'm also curious why the regular enemies give so few points. It almost feels like the developers did not want players to tape a button down on their controller to get extra lives. (: Super Cybord is a really impressive game coming from a team of three people, and far more challenging than all the old Contra games I played growing up. I'd love to see what else this team can do.

A decent, heavily Contra inspired game that arguably takes a bit too much from it's inspiration as a basis. Feels somewhat like a hypothetical Contra game between Super C and Contra 3 with it's simple arsenal of mechanics and gameplay structure. Being idea diverse helps it stand on its own two legs. Unless you're REALLY good at Run n gun titles, I heavily recommend playing on easy for your first time.

Although it feels way different from its main inspiration (Coming from a Super C NES player who speedruns the game at this point), it's certainly a classic, and it keeps me grounded. I like it.

Excelente banda sonora, graficamente se nota una mejora constante en los assets conforme avanzas en el juego (como si el artista del equipo se fuera acomodando durante las creaciones) pero empiezan desde un nivel mas que agradable. El level design presenta ciertas ambivalencias, mostrando cosas muy buenas que te acercan a la experiencia de los Contra de nes y algun que otro elemento posible de Hard Corps, pero tambien se olvidan de respetar la presencia de alguna pausa entre partes para respirar, o tambien saber cuando hay suficientes elementos en pantalla en simultaneo, pasando de un desafio a un snowballing constante que mas que desafiar puede agotar mentalmente. Mas allá de esa negativa, lo recomiendo fuertemente. Solo tomen con pinzas la idea de dificultad del game designer.
