ChainStaff - Game like Contra + A very useful tool

ChainStaff is a Contra-like 2D platformer Shoot 'Em Up game, developed by Mommy's Best Games, a studio known for its portfolio of side-scrolling and platform shooter titles. Published by Null Games, ChainStaff introduces a unique weapon, the ChainStaff, which can transform into a spear, grappling hook, whip, or even a ladder. This dynamic tool enables a wide range of combat and traversal strategies, such as deflecting bullets, delivering 1 hit kills, or block incoming enemies.

Players can upgrade their weapon using Tech Points, which are earned by rescuing refugees throughout the game, from the demo menu, is seems that players are allowed to revisit previously completed stages, so I think if you missed out some Tech Points, you will be able to go back and find them.

The demo level is quite challenging, filled with enemies attacking from all directions, some with rapid movement that tests your reflexes. The stage concludes with a boss battle and a little story of the protagonist’s backstory, a character who has been attached with an alien creature.
