Contra | CO-OP | CRT Shader
22Contra is a side-scrolling run-and-gun video game developed and published by Konami for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1988. A home console adaptation of the 1987 arcade game, Contra follows two elite commandos, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean, as they battle an alien invasion led by the mysterious Red Falcon organization.
The game is renowned for its cooperative two-player mode, where both players progress through a series of increasingly difficult stages filled with enemy soldiers, turrets, and mechanical threats. The gameplay consists of side-scrolling and pseudo-3D levels, requiring players to shoot enemies, jump across obstacles, and collect weapon upgrades such as the iconic spread gun. The game is also notable for its tight controls and challenging difficulty, making it one of the most beloved action titles of the NES era.
One of Contra’s defining features is its use of the Konami Code, which grants players 30 extra lives, significantly easing its notorious difficulty. The game received widespread critical acclaim and became a staple of retro gaming culture, influencing numerous titles in the run-and-gun genre.
