Disclaimer:
Contra is a game owned by Konami. Contra 2028 is a game made by a small team of 8 students who had 8 weeks to design and produce a reboot of the original Contra on the NES.
The release is just on our part since we believe that what we created was good enough to be shared freely on the internet. All the team was hyped about rebooting Contra and we made it as a tribute to the original title.
We really hope that you will have fun playing it as we had making it.

I had tried this game out a while back, but on a crappier laptop, so I didn't even play for a minute. But after getting this new one, I decided to look for this game again to try it. Here is my video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXSQIZZjEng
Sadly we wont update the game in anyway because we each have different projects for our last semester of university. We never thought that the game would attract that much attention so we didn't plan of updating the game after release. We tallked about maybe tweaking it, but we decided that it would be better to leave it as it is and move on.
Thank you for your interest and I hope you still are able to play the game :)
Yep, there is: Reso — mini app to change resolution

And FPS+ = gaming is possible ??
Hi, since this was a school project there might not be updates for the game. Windows was the obvious choice for us. Maybe later we will add a build for Linux and Mac, but we don't know how hard it is going to be to make everything work on other platforms, since we make the game work for Windows.
Thanks for the comment and I hope you could play in some way to our game.

Too lazy to check and don't know whether to run under Wine, but:

I played the game just for a few minutes, because I was going to sleep, and it is wonderful and very addictive. You are a great team. I hope I can hear more about your games in the future.
I noticed some bugs, like the aliens stuck in a car and jumping in the same place but could not be unstuck until I killed it.
another bug I noticed was the left leg disappear sometimes when running.
I would recommend you look for options for the keyboard control, because for something continuous used as change weapon, it is not a good idea to put this action performed by <TAB> on Windows.
another good thing to add in a future is a option to decrease the video graphics, for less powerful computers.
overall, the trailer is awesome, the gameplay is great, the commands are fluid, the characters and enviroment and sound effects and video effects are very well done. I can't stop to see good things in this project!!
Great job!
Well I played for a few hours until i got the best second score of the game XD
It's really addictive, and the fact that you guys made all this game in 8 weeks it's really impressive. You should start a kickstarter project or something like that, i really want to thank you by helping the project.
I only found a few bugs at the end of the bigger waves, the aliens got stuck in some pillars or between the boxes, and it was annoying to try to find them while i wanted to finish the challenges. But that's the only problem I found.
