Looks like the bare-chested man decided to bring his friend along for the ride this time. Using two players at once, adelikat brings us one step closer to perfecting Contra. This run displays many new time savers, including spread gun manipulation and 2P death skips. More details can be found in the submission text.


Trivia: This game was released as Probotector in Europe with slightly modified graphics. It is also known as GryZor on some other systems.
