BLAZING CHROME (Contra Clone) - No Continues, SPEEDRUN Achievement

BLAZING CHROME is the shmup title that will bring you back to the times of Contra, Metal Slug, Gunforce titles and many others. The Contra III Alien Wars and Contra Hardcorps vibes are strong in this game, levels in ruined cities, driving by a hoverbike with a sunset in the background, weapons to choose and mandatory ALIEN HIVE. Like the Gunforce and Metal Slug (both titles from same developers), you can use Mechs in few levels - while saving Blue and Orange mechs is not that hard, try to save the Melee Mech :D. The Blue Mech in the first level is armed with the chaingun, packs a lot of punch against enemies and a robot boss, it is not that difficult after some practice to save him and gain an achievement. The Orange laser mech will help you a lot against the final boss, just avoid these wallcrawling aliens and the crusher (wait paitiently for a good moment), its weapon can overheat though. This game from JoyMasher is quite difficult, you will need some patience to finish the game without continues, thankfully those are unlimited. Blazing Chrome offers you 6 stages, first four of them you can start in any order you want (like it was in Shatterhand for example). The Communication Tower final section reminds a lot of Super Turrican II tunnel levels, you have to avoid some obstacles during your way to final boss, that really packs a punch and has some surprises. The final stage is a return once again to the times of Contra Hardcorps - the background reminds a lot of the Colonel Bahamuth's Headquarters and you fight in the virtual reality. After you finish the game with your default characters, additional Melee characters are unlocked, they are much different to play than Mavra and Doyle, like Fang from Hardcorps. They do not have additional weapons except their main attack that can be charged into devastating large wave of energy, but uncharged attack is quite weak. These Melee characters can also perform a dash in the air, but during the boss fights you will mostly use their charged attacks, really devastating like it was for Fang.
