The player can either just deal with the first brain creature(s) and move onward while evading the rest, or play it safe and camp for a moment while shooting all the Eggrons until no more come out. However, more Eggrons will keep on breaking in on the same area from where the first one appeared and won't stop until about seven of them have gotten inside. Instead of just lying on either the ground or ceiling, they are more mobile this time around and actively dig through hard metal to break inside the base once inside, they hatch and release a single cycloptic and tentacled brain-like creature (which makes the part of a Bugger) which then scurries along the floor. Unlike most games, where they're usually found in the final levels, in Contra ReBirth, Eggrons can be found in the very first stage, Satellite Warzone, and their behavior is a little different. In Probotector, the European Mega Drive version of Contra: Hard Corps, downed Zako Soldiers are changed into alien eggs resembling Eggrons. If the player is carrying the adequate armament and aims properly, they may be able to dispatch of a few of these cocoons from the platform above. Unlike the arcade game, these Eggrons behave like those in the rest of the games, by periodically releasing quickly scurrying Buggers. About two thirds into the level, the player will reach a series of relatively small platforms, with almost all of them having a pair of Eggrons. One of these levels is Alien Area 2, where the player has to make their way down an alien environmental construct. The NES version of Super Contra, Super C, features more levels and enemies than its arcade counterpart. The Eggrons in the original arcade version of Super Contra are unique in a few behavioral and aesthetic aspects that differentiate them from most of their incarnations in other games from the series.Įggrons are found in Area 4, but unlike the rest of these enemies' appearances in other titles, they release Bundles instead of the usual Buggers.Ī unique variant of Eggron is found earlier in Area 3, although it is much larger than the common variant and the embryo inside it attacks by peeking and spewing Poisonous Insect Gels from it. In most games, the eggs are not limited to give birth to just one creature and they will keep on producing more until destroyed.Įggrons are renowned for appearing in battles against Gomeramos King, constantly producing Buggers as the giant alien heart's only form of attack and defense. These living vessels remain stationary and hatch after a brief period of time, letting loose a newborn Bugger that quickly scurries along the floor. Pulsating giant alien eggs scattered along caverns deep beneath the earth, on the path that leads to the nest.
