    The game sets out to do what it is supposed to do. Give us a modern Contra/Metal Slug experience.

    Classic gameplay with lots of humor. Fun and challenging levels which have many parodies to spot (assuming you know all the games).

    It's a simple run-and-gun shooter in the style of Contra but its self-deprecating sense of humor and videogame in-jokes will keep you entertained until the end. Make sure you stick around after the credits for a nice little surprise.

    Matt Hazard’s debut missed the mark with gamers, and though this entry isn’t a bull’s-eye, his aim has gotten a lot better.

    The fake game hero stars in another fake parody, which hits neither its comedy or gameplay targets.
