This game is still early in development. The next update will feature lots of improvements (including different footstep noises and a whole new level). /this build already features a fun little easter egg, based not he Konami Code though. I've added it at the end of the video. As a side note, the Alpha Beta Gamer "Games to Get Excited About Fest" is due to go live this Friday. It'll feature 100+ upcoming indie games to get excited about, no CGI trailers and no filler (aside from some links between the different genres). Hope to see you there! :)

Already better than most modern third person shooters. This one is ACTUALLY from a third person view instead of having the player character off to the left or right.
This looks so cool. I hope the developer realizes he's got something special here. Forget the fan game and just make an actual original game in this style and I'd definitely part with some cash for it.
No bad idea, but the problem here is the name of this possible new game as "Contra" if it keeps that name, Konami would take part of it and smash the project.
Exactly. I’m all for him taking out all of the original contra assets and just making it close enough. we contra fans will “get it” and he’d be able to release it and make money off of it.
this is how a game should be remade. great level design with the original contra spirit. i hope i will live up to the day when Contra Hard Corps will get a remake (best Contra game in series imo)
I picked up a copy of _Contra: Legacy of War_ today and I can tell just by looking at your footage this is a better concept of 3D Contra than what Konami made.
lying prone was a big part of dodging in the original, i think by allowing everyone to just aim all over the y axis, it kills some of that original feeling. if you're going to remove lying prone you almost have to insert a dodge roll or something to compensate.
@@ivaerz4977 Bad for some, OK to good for others... Contra "fans" are just very critical on what they want of Contra. For those "fans", Contra must be: 2D sidescroller, 1 hit deaths, have a few stages with perspective shift.
@@ivaerz4977there's a good contra 3d game created by some engineering students for their finals project. It's free to play. Look it up it's quite good
Can't wait for Konami to take all the wrong lessons to heart and sic their lawyers on this, and those same lawyers are shamed when they take an extra minute on lunch breaks.
Nah. *Konami* was just acting that way for a minute with *Castlevania* ,because of the whole *Iga* thing. Then they mellowed down; and started concentrating on making *pachinko machines* that are based on some of their video game franchises.
If Konami was still interesting in making actual video games - I could 100% see a fully realised version of this in the style of Returnal or other similar games. This looks cool, love the low poly visuals.
If the creators would added sliding and a speed up platforms (Or rings like in Fall Guys) I think this game would be an absolute banger. At least that's what I thought when watching the video.
I keep thinking of Sonic Robo Blast when watching this. Must be the wall tiles in the jungle stage, and the fact that both are technically 3D. I can't help but wonder how much chaos will ensue when the spread fire gets implemented though.
esta bastante bien el avance que llevan parece hecho con el motor grafico de doom, lo cual me recuerda mucho al mod de doom 2 que tiene bastante similitud solo que es en primera persona
3:22 ABG: *inputs Konami(*) code* *immediately dies* (*) Konami almost sounds like Konamy, which means "we are dying im agony" in Polish. Konami (like "w rękach") also means "He/she/it is dying on me".
This is nice. I'd suggest Konami hire the creators, but they already got WayForward to make Operation Galuga. Check it out if you want an official Contra remake.
This looks like a lot of fun and reminds me of Sonic Robo Blast 2. The only problem I see is that enemy bullets are practically invisible when they're flying over a bridge.
The gameplay looks like it works quite well, which is the most important part. As noted, sounds needs a lot of work, the high pitched squeal of whatever that was is quite obnoxious. But solid beginning, could be special. I hope you have your alternative, non-copyright infringing assets ready to go!
It must be really hard to design levels for this because it's clear they're putting extra care to make sure everything is always visible.
why everything? why always?
@@santiagozarpado1145 Recreate the visibility of the original

That sounds awesome! 🤘😎 I'll be sure to be on the lookout for that
Here next! Voyager 19 this horror moon! Scary 😱
Which game engine. ? Is it quake based game engine or Godot ?
Please make a pt 2
Wow, you play really well. The video is also very entertaining.
Good conception for Contra. You could even say...
good Contra-ception.
Video games = birth control
True and real

Ba dum tss!
That's too clever, youuuure one of them (punch) ugh*

I think you should blame RE4 (And probably Gears of War) for making that kind of Third-Person viewpoint become really popular
Wa- wa- WAAAAAAAAAAAAA
With the original BGM and sound effects!!!!
It's trivial to extract sound effects and music from older games with the tools we have today.
Right!? Most developers would want to modernize everything, and that's usually when the magic is lost.
NGL, I'd love to play an official Contra remake in this style. Seeing the classic levels through a new perspective would be awesome.
if it was official the first boss would be a pachinko machine
@@CrudeBuster DELETE
One of the PS1 Contra games had TPS stages in this style.
Why would you lie anyway? We believe you even without that remark.
actually it would be a tons better in ots
I remember play this with my dad 7 years ago, good times with old man...
Looks like the Contra N64 game we never got
Imagine showing this gameplay to someone in 1987 who just played the original Contra...
This looks so cool. I hope the developer realizes he's got something special here. Forget the fan game and just make an actual original game in this style and I'd definitely part with some cash for it.

@@drakonolus7922 I mean that he should create an original IP and just keep the gameplay in this style.
@@retrorapture4079 Great idea. A good name might be Run N' Gun.
Exactly. I’m all for him taking out all of the original contra assets and just making it close enough. we contra fans will “get it” and he’d be able to release it and make money off of it.
Could always put a cardboard box on the guy's head and call it "Carton". It's an anagram.
this is how a game should be remade. great level design with the original contra spirit.
i hope i will live up to the day when Contra Hard Corps will get a remake (best Contra game in series imo)
That game was WILD!
I picked up a copy of _Contra: Legacy of War_ today and I can tell just by looking at your footage this is a better concept of 3D Contra than what Konami made.
Cause Konami farmed it out to Appaloosa.
lying prone was a big part of dodging in the original, i think by allowing everyone to just aim all over the y axis, it kills some of that original feeling. if you're going to remove lying prone you almost have to insert a dodge roll or something to compensate.
Doesn't the ability to dodge the hits by moving laterally already kinda replace it?
@@DamonDravenSince lying prone prevents moving which makes you vulnerable to other attacks I'd say that it's very different from lateral movement
@@Oniphire Same with the dodge roll that was suggested.
@@DamonDraven I agree, though in fairness they didn't say it had to be a dodge roll
Imagine contra hard corps in this style 😮
thats exactly what i was thinking about
Very crazy
Contra but 3d is something I am surprised does not exist already. This does it well.
Conta in 3D exist but they are bad

@@The-Zer0th-LawIs there anything wrong with people knowing what they like?
@@The-Zer0th-Law yes I agree they act as If the original contra didnt have camera shifts 😂
Only left add destroyable Bridges with "chihuahua" sound explosion. 🗿
Chihuahua lol thats so nostalgic
Chihuahua... 😂 I'll never hear it the same.
@@HappyFunJay sorry. 🤣
I heard "bumm chikepapa"
Amazing that they're using the original files as textures in a 3d world. I am humbled by the dedication of these developers
My brother in Christ, there’s 2 bots in the comment already?
Yeah, it happens every time I post a video. I block them but new ones pop up each time. RUclips really needs to sort it out.
Don't mind them, it's just Probotectors
@@AlphaBetaGamer true
@@CrudeBusternice refrence 😂
How can you tell if the comment is from a bot?
I was about to comment where is the iconic spinning jump, but damn! I'm amazed!
That Era after coming from school, lying on couch playing this games (Bro they lived the gold) 🏆🎉🏆
“Lived the gold?” Bro never went back to school
bro dont tell, best fucking time to be alive
Can't wait for Konami to take all the wrong lessons to heart and sic their lawyers on this, and those same lawyers are shamed when they take an extra minute on lunch breaks.
Uhhh, I think you’re confusing Konami with Nintendo.
what are you smoking brother ?
Konami doesn't shut down fan-made projects very often. They're not even very widely known for that.
Ehhhh. While true, Konami has been shit for most of the decade, they're not very known to take down fan projects.
Nah. *Konami* was just acting that way for a minute with *Castlevania* ,because of the whole *Iga* thing. Then they mellowed down; and started concentrating on making *pachinko machines* that are based on some of their video game franchises.
Dang this is perfectly done. The super flipping, haha! Hope they keep up the great work.
If Konami was still interesting in making actual video games - I could 100% see a fully realised version of this in the style of Returnal or other similar games. This looks cool, love the low poly visuals.
Duke Nukem meets Contra =)
Thank you for finding these gems for us as always!
It looks like a scraped duke nuke zero hour level
I thought the same
Why does the flip look hilarious in 3D to me? That was awesome.
What flip? He just jumps normally
Jumps way higher.
Holy crap this is fantastic, keep it up! Can't wait to see the rest of the bosses.
"Don't mind me, I'm just practicing my Contra-diction" Very very nicely done.
My dad and uncle would love this, they always mention this game while we play other games
reminds me of playing Quake 3 in third person mode
Would like to take this moment to remember the friends and family that loved contra and never got to see this happen
the bridge explosion in lvl 1 was was iconic to me at least... the sound it makes made it so impactful.
That rolling jump is insane >_
Everything from character to levels to textures is Amazing ,
We have lost and left with much lesser such inspiring developers,
This is super cool! A fantastic fan game for old retro lovers.
I would love to see the entire game done in 3d.
Geeat choice AlphaBetagamer!
looks like it controls surprisingly good
Brilliant I can't believe no one has done this yet. Make sure you're add the duck or prone position. So cool.
I love everything about this. 3d platformers with shooting mechanics is an idea that I want to see more devs explore.
i would normally say contra in 3D = nah mate, but this is actually very well done
Cool idea and no annoying galuga dialogue. Hope they implement the spread gun
If the creators would added sliding and a speed up platforms (Or rings like in Fall Guys) I think this game would be an absolute banger. At least that's what I thought when watching the video.
I keep thinking of Sonic Robo Blast when watching this. Must be the wall tiles in the jungle stage, and the fact that both are technically 3D.
I can't help but wonder how much chaos will ensue when the spread fire gets implemented though.
SRB was my first thought, too. If it uses the same open-source base, then hopefully ports to a variety of platforms will follow.
This is excellent! I love how the weapon shoots at a wide radius allowing you to "Contra"(Run n' Gun) 🙂. Brilliant!
I can’t believe how much I already love this. Contra 64.
That’s a really well done remake so far.
It's about time someone made this
All it needs is the flying upgrades and the ability to go prone that's all I noticed missing lol
Awesome! I can't wait for this and hope we get Super C next. That game was the bomb!
in 3D it looks more like duke nukem than contra itself lol, nice project btw 👍
Actually a dope concept.
Finally, someone figured out that the level can be made not straight, but regular in 3D.
I had this in the background and the sound effects and music reminded me more of 2010's gaming RUclipsrs than Contra or any other nes game.
There's a contra map for Sven Coop it's actually pretty amazing with 20+ ppl and it's VERY well done for a FPS contra conversion.
I love that game since I was a kid to play Contra, best side scrolling indie shooting game
Now I’m curious to see what the next stage when you’re running down the hallway would be like.
Damn, that level 1 boss battle was some intense bullet hell!
Not going to lie, this looks way better than all of the actual 3D Contra games.
That music instantly brings me back.
Looks really cool, hopefully they release it as a full game eventually.
esta bastante bien el avance que llevan parece hecho con el motor grafico de doom, lo cual me recuerda mucho al mod de doom 2 que tiene bastante similitud solo que es en primera persona
This looks really good, so far!
I remember playing Contra 3D In 1988. Good times 🙏
uhhh.....
This would be the absolute sickest multiplayer custom map ever made
That's the best what I've seen last decade
Nice to have a mix of both contra and super C sound effects

(*) Konami almost sounds like Konamy, which means "we are dying im agony" in Polish. Konami (like "w rękach") also means "He/she/it is dying on me".
amazing ,great job but still the original 2d feels much more nostalgic and brings back those good old days
This game looks like a work of art!
This is cool and jarring at the same time!
This feels weird and yet familiar at them same time.
I love this gameplay design!
This is nice. I'd suggest Konami hire the creators, but they already got WayForward to make Operation Galuga. Check it out if you want an official Contra remake.
Wait!
It can also go fps mode too?
Omg!!!
I'm in love!!!!!
This looks like a lot of fun and reminds me of Sonic Robo Blast 2.
The only problem I see is that enemy bullets are practically invisible when they're flying over a bridge.
Never played the original contra but the fan game looks cool.
Came for the games, stayed for the puns.
"Contra-diction" 😂👌 Not to be a "Contra-rian" but I'm loving those puns
Bad ass! So faithful to the original! Good job! 😊
Need full version of this
This is nice
Gameplay looks really good.
"Contra 64, by RARE"
Insane!!!
THIS IS A SICK CONCEPT
Love it!! Great work so far!
The gameplay looks like it works quite well, which is the most important part. As noted, sounds needs a lot of work, the high pitched squeal of whatever that was is quite obnoxious. But solid beginning, could be special. I hope you have your alternative, non-copyright infringing assets ready to go!
My first impression…it got a future
Finally, the mythical lost copy of "Contra 64" has been found! 😁
This looks pretty awesome, truly a N64 version of Contra!
Looks like the first Serious Sam game in third person
Ngl this should have a first person view, at least with a toggle. It would be so cool! Like Doom but with tons of platforming, id love that
Super. Kanciasto, topornie, ale właśnie tego oczekuję od Contry. Świetna robota 😃
Jeszcze multi i pełnia szczęścia osiągnięta🥳
the best level desing 3D contra nes!
Best 3d contra I've seen
this is what video games should be period!
I'm going to hazard a guess that this is running on top of the GZDOOM engine.
Feels looks like Counter Strike Contra MOD version 🤔💭
this is amazing
Character needs this specific jump animation where he spins in the air!
As a Contra game, it needs co-op.
I thought this was gonna be a Doom mod judging by the thumbnail, haha. Still, this seems like a pretty solid base for a reimagining.
Even in third person this game is still difficult for me to beat.
