In this video, we start by setting the foundations of the project, we start by analyzing and make some references to the main mechanics and main features from Contra.

We searched for a set of art resources that could be used in the game without violating any copyright but at the same that could allow us to expand on the game in case it fulfilled the promises of being fun.

Resources used:

Contra´s Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contra_%28video_game%29

Mindmap created: https://atlas.mindmup.com/gamedevelopers/free_mind_map/index.html Contra is a complex game but we will try to get as far as possible in cloning.

Get you controllers ready, download Gdevelop and we will be starting ...

GDevelop is an open-source, cross-platform game engine designed for everyone - it's extensible, fast and easy to learn.

In its concept it is very similar to Scirra Construct game engine ( somewhat less polished) with a growing community developing games, tutorials and supporting the game engine development.

We will post a serie of easy gdevelop tutorials to let you start your way into game development.
