Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow - Contravania is a fan-made modification for the Nintendo DS that combines elements from the Contra series with the gameplay of Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. Players control Tsugu-Min, featuring shooting mechanics and modified level layouts. The hack includes two difficulty patches: easy and hard, enhancing the challenge and gameplay dynamics while integrating original Contra aesthetics.
Experience the Contra gameplay but in Castlevania.
Does not come with spread shot and other weapons because of limitations.
You play as Tsugu-Min and you can shoot everything to death, just like in Contra!
This hack comes with two patches, see the readme for more info

This hack features:
-The playable character Tsugu-Min from Contra Rebirth (I used the Japanese name because I refuse to believe this is Brownie from Hard Corps)
-Shooting forwards and upwards (I can't find a way to change the warg soul sound effect)
-Slide that gives I-frames
-Some changed level layouts
-Added and save room near Paranoia
-Added a warp room after the Aguni boss room
-Some new enemy placements
-Enemies that aren't supposed to be killed (you will do 1 damage)
-Handicapped Yoko and Alucard (refrain from switching to them)
-A hidden girl only found in 10 places, this is optional
-Dying, a lot of dying, especially in the hard patch
-Two patches, an easy and hard patch
-The easy patch allows you to take up to three hits before dying (some enemies might kill you in two or more because damage scaling is weird)
-The hard patch will have everything instantly kill you upon contact (except for Paranoia's lasers for some reason)
