Some original designs and ideas here, and one of the level tracks (stage 3) is mad cool. I quite liked the game. I'm not sure if it felt a little short? Just 5 levels. But they were quite extensive and varied, and you can always up the difficulty level. Some of the jumping even at normal jumps was a bit clunky. Even at very normal places it was too easy to fall in. At least for me. Either way, if Contra/Probotector is your type of game this serve it's purpose.

In Europe the Contra tough guys were replaced by Robots. Don't ask me why, this idiocy started with the original Contra on the NES and ended with this game. It also affected Super Contra on the SNES, which this game is a downgraded port of. In itself it's not that bad, but it definitely lacks compared to the original SNES version.
