Iconoclasts is a Metroidvania I had pretty high hopes for and I think most of them were met. This game is fun, a lot of fun! Iconoclasts has a unique setting that I wanted to keep exploring and learn about forever. The pixel art is fantastic and the wrench mechanics are terrific!

Good review. I enjoyed this game for the most part, but think the developer gets a little too clever for his own good in spots, especially during the boss fights (as you mentioned) and also some of the more trying puzzles. Also, it gets hard toward the end! I had to turn on relaxed mode to finish it... there was no way I was going to beat the Starworm without it. As for the story, it has its moments, but the characters lean toward the long-winded. I do appreciate how the ornate religion that serves as a foundation for the planet's society was ultimately built on (spoilers) some alien who got stranded on their moon. It makes it all feel rather insignificant... there was no god, just some dumbass who took a wrong turn at Albuquerque.

Good review! I want to disagree with you a bit on the story: I think it's Intentionally without an explicit "message," because the dev wants you to come to your own conclusions and talk about it. There's sadly not much talk about the game since it didn't sell very well, but when you see it, there are so many different observations and interpretations of different elements, and I think that's the mark of a good story.

Yeah I think that's fair. I don't understand why it didn't sell well, it's a good game. Thanks for watching 😀

You keep saying "they" but it's really one person and that person is kind of a know it all arse. He takes forever to make his games and is quick to point out how every other game is inferior. I boycott his work because of his bad attitude. Too bad because his pixels are pretty and previous games weren't bad. There's just too many people doing better, faster, without the bad attitude.

Ah I see, that's unfortunate
