Contra is back - reloaded, reimagined, and reborn - with Contra: Operation Galuga! Grab your spread shot and run 'n' gun your way through explosive co-op action against the Red Falcon army! This thorough remake of the revolutionary Contra NES/arcade game from the 1980s redeploys players to the Galuga Archipelago, where you'll take control of elite Contra commandos Bill Rizer and Lance Bean (as well as other warriors) and use an assortment of iconic weapons such as the Spread Shot, Laser Beam, and Homing Missiles to run, jump, and shoot your way through burning jungles, frigid mountains, a grotesque alien lair, and more.

The Humble Very Positive Bundle 3 starts at just 80p for psychological horror Distraint 2, tough roguelite Unexplored and atmospheric point-and-click adventure Rusty Lake Paradise.
