Hack Released By tavuntu ‪@tavuntu‬

Patch Version 0.0.1
Release date: May 14, 2025

This patch transforms Contra’s main characters into female versions of themselves. They are now strong, beautiful women.

Their names have changed too: Bill Rizer and Lance Bean are now Bella Rizer and Lana Bean

All work was done on top of Ferraro’s translation pack.

Work Done

Changed the title screen to show Bella and Lana (back to back, just like in the original)
Added white tank tops where necessary
Updated the “military” file IDs that show only the face, in grayscale
Edited both versions of the cutscenes: the radio call and the one where they shoot the machine gun
Changed all small sprites, of course
Rewrote the dialogue for the last two cutscenes

Work Pending

Rewrite all cutscene dialogue to make their personalities more consistent
Working on an alternate palette version where Bella and Lana’s large sprites match the small sprite colors (green shorts will be blue, blonde hair will be red, etc.)
