Picontra is a demake of Contra. However, this game is not a remake. The game has different level layouts and enemy behavior, as well as a stage based off of Super C.
Additionally, this game features full multiplayer support!
This was a game made in the course of about 3 weeks. I made it because I wanted to gain experience working on a game until it was complete, as well as improve my Pico-8 skills. That being said, I intended to make the game bigger than it was, but had to rush due to my upcoming semester of college. However, I'm still proud of how the game turned out. I'm going to be quite busy soon, but if you encounter any bugs, please comment about them, and I'll take a look.

Excellent work, well done. I'm wanting to get into PICO8 too, and this is the kind of thing I would do.
It looks cool, but can't get past a machine gun / turret combo spot. That's probably on me, but I would appreciate if the game had a life bar or meter of some sort (as an easy difficulty mode or something) instead of one hit death deal if that's possible.
memorizing is key usually you will rush and shoot rather not stand like idiot
oh, my goodness, this is a fantastic (de|re)make. I absolutely stink at it, but that doesn't stop me from being impressed at the spectacular implementation, even down to the music. Wonderfully done!
