Blazing Chrome

Es como Contra, si hicieran Contra hoy en día, sería como este juego, aquí lo bueno es que hay Checkpoints, pasas una parte de la misión y se te guarda si mueres, pero solo se te guarda todo el progreso cuando terminas toda la misión, si te sales antes de terminar, vas a empezar desde el principio la próxima vez. Para jugar puedes usar el teclado o el control, el mouse no tiene uso. Tiene los niveles y la dificultad suficientes para pasar un buen rato. Vas a morir mucho, hay que tener paciencia y aprender, y a la final lo consigues, incluso en el último jefe, que tiene muchas faces. PD: en la misión 4 hay una parte que puede dar dolor de cabeza/epilepsia, es una parte donde el nivel es estilo "primera persona", todos los enemigos vienen hacia ti mientras que tu estas estático, y el escenario se mueve rápido, sale en el tráiler por unos segundos. Y una vez que terminas el nivel 5, pasas directamente al jefe final, y no se que pasa si cierras el juego cuando llegas a esa parte, capaz y tengas que empezar desde el principio o si se guarde desde ahí.

Well made side scrolling shooter that does nothing to break the mold, but nothing wrong either. If you're a fan of the genre you'll likely enjoy it. If not, this is likely to be a bit punishing. The difficulty comes largely from exploiting the directions that are difficult to shoot in, something veterans of the genre are likely used to and newcomers will find frustrating. Still, worth a shot if the previous look up your alley.

TLDR: [b]Old school run 'n' gun action handles well and is challenging but not too difficult if you use continues and learn your boss patterns and stage dangers.[/b] Blazing Chrome is a well done Contra-like with switchable weapons, power up gear, a melee attack, prone, and dodge roll available to a starting character. The action is a little more difficult than I typically like. Each of the six missions is typically separated into three stages. If you reach the next stage of a mission, a continue will start you there with a fresh set of lives. For a veteran casual like myself, this brought a nice balance to the difficulty on normal. [b]There were a couple times I thought I might have to come back to a level after taking a break but the gameplay has a good hook to it even when struggling with a level[/b] and so I kept at it every time! I finished a first normal playthrough in a little over two hours. [b]There's a nice variety of bosses, there's run 'n' gun action, jump in a mech action, future speed bike action, and a couple really cool pseudo 3D stages--the aerial combat suit stage being a stand out favorite to mix it up.[/b] Finish the story mode and you unlock a boss rush mode and two new characters that have their own moveset and offer a fresh take on the arcade gameplay. Sprites and pixel art all look great and can be swapped out for Halloween themed enemy units and containers. Even the bosses seem to get in on the Halloween fun. The old school visuals are a little hard to read when it comes to dangers because the color palette is what it is. [b]I'm also not a big fan of the Battletoads level dangers and that's definitely pushed in one of the missions with a series of pitfalls and hazards to jump over with your bike, some of which reaction time is worthless for without memorization.[/b] On both counts, I was able to learn some of the danger patterns and what to look out for to know if something is going to damage me or is just an effect. While some of the level hazards were a bit frustrating, it was manageable and I still had a good time with the game! I think normal is the appropriate starting difficulty, and yet if replaying for fun and trying out the other characters' loadouts, I think easy will be what I go with. I only played the first mission on easy but it didn't seem to dumb down the action and felt good. [b]Recommended for retro action gamers.[/b]

Das Spiel soll eine Hommage an Contra 3 sein, wieso zur Hölle hat man unendlich Continues!? Jeglicher Reiz geht verloren, da sterben keine Bedeutung mehr hat. Absolut nicht zu empfehlen!

4/10 Ждал скидку очень долго. Думал, что это тот самый Contra Hard Corps, но увы и вот что меня расстроило: - кривое управление. По умолчанию все не так: где во всех играх "да" или "отмена" - тут это местами перепутано. Жутко неудобно и если поменять раскладу для игры еще можно, то в меню - она только стандартная. - нет динамики и однообразный стиль. Рефанд.

Modern take on Contra it's almost perfect just way too difficult

Awesome "not Contra" game. It plays like Contra on SNES.
