Contra Rampage

Author Comments

I can remember the release of Contra in 1987. After pushing the cartridge into the system and turning it on, my mind was immediately blown away by one of the coolest video game title screens of all time. Armed with huge guns and tight abs; two soldiers, Bill and Lance, take on an enemy force known as Red Falcon.

I played the game's gun-and-run marathon time and time again. We were monsters -- unstoppable war machines with precision accuracy, but as time went on I found myself asking, "How would it be on the other end of the gun? Would you run for your life or carry on the fight?"

I would have run screaming the moment I saw a machine gun triple front flip.

Without further ado, I present you with an animation depicting the events of level one from the Red Falcon's point of view. It took some time to make due to what little experience we all had with the animation software, but we finally got it put together. So watch and enjoy. Have to reload it twice because the background was to small. Sorry about that.

I had to come back and watch one of my favorite flash toons. I could on about what I love about this. The style you used; high five, barrel-in-mouth, point blank shots, ultra gore and muscle head mayhem! Awesome!

I was 7 and my bro was 9 when this came out. It was the best co-op game of its time. So many memories. Thanks bro

It was a lot of fun but hard to play as kids. Thanks for the review and sorry for being so slow to respond.

This game was what started the evolution of bro gamers, anyway nice retro scoping and great detail , typically when this affect is used for the high octane action scenes they get downgraded in quality but this was consistent and awesome all the way through, the over the top personality's of the characters are what I always imagined them growing up seeing as there was never a description or backstory. 5/5 keep up the good work.

Yeah the back story to them is very vague, but I think a lot of people assumed they had to be a little insane to go though as much stuff as they did. Thanks
