This was from my first night of Contra NES speedrun attempts, and there will likely be many, many more. This definitely isn't the last Contra run that I'll be doing, but I thought it would be nice to have the fastest run from my first night of attempts uploaded so I can compare as things improve and the times drop. I don't really have a set goal time, but I do want to get a deathless run. After that, I'll figure out if I want to keep going and pushing for a lower time, or if I'll move on. The number in my head is 12 minutes, but my mash speed isn't anywhere near what's needed to do a lot of things in this game, so I'll have to see how it goes once that deathless run happens. My biggest issue is that deathless would be a lot easier if I was playing cautiously, but I find myself getting the speed mentality and that causes a bunch of problems with jumping into stray bullets and the like.
