Iron Meat: MORE SKIN, MORE SOUNDS, MORE MEAT!


THE MEAT IS HUNGRY... for updates!

We've been in maximum overdrive here, as developer Razz continues to make Iron Meat even meatier since the demo dropped. To everyone that has sent us comments, or given the game a like, download, wishlist, or retweet: THANK YOU! We are hella pumped to release this onslaught of a run-and-gun straight to your face and the face of everyone you love, but as the saying goes, good things come to those who gestate.

For now, here are a few updates/modifications made on Iron Meat during the past two weeks:

CHARACTER SKINS

Did you know that you can change your character's skin in the demo from the menu? Once you select the number of players, simply hover down to your character and click the arrow next to a corresponding area of the body (head, arms, torso, or legs)  and create your own custom Meat fighter. I personally love the combo of dinosaur head and camo legs.

Anyways, we've asked us ourselves, to exhaustion really,  What would Santa Claus do if met with the Meat? It be really funny to play as a merman with skeleton legs and are working to develop a slew of additional character skins to maximize this feature, from the downright silly to serious. Shout out to Lucky @LuckySoftWorks for bringing the pixels to life!

RETRO MUSIC MODE

There's been a ton of positive feedback on Darkman007's OST and, trust me, it only gets badass(ier?) as the game continues. But in the spirit of the retro-style Iron Meat is violently birthed from, we've integrated a "retro" music mode, featuring a more chip-tuned call back to titles of the past. This will be easily accessible and can be toggled through the pause screen as well as the main title. Never has a 1988-era, near-future apocalyptical setting been more inviting!

Those skins are amazing. I for one wait for the Barney skin seen from the demo play by Alpha Beta Gamer. But the Sailor Moon skin looks fun, although her arms are a bit too big lol

No. Just no.
This concept art is definitely wrong direction. It is funny, but it will ruin the mood.
This game needs a "CONTRA" feeling - not the "Drawn Together".
So, my opinion - this is appropriate only as few-time completion unlockable bonus, as a joke, along with some serious ones.
And serious skins should be inspired by sci-fi movies of 80's but with more "soviet feel".  Some military-cyborg-supersoldier stuff. Robot or Mutant will be fine too!
Even cyborg with the crocodile head, with the name "Gennady" will be ok. But not the Mummy, Gorilla, and some crossdresser in japanese school uniform.
I do REALLY like your project and i don't want it to go wrong.
So - this is my opinion.

PS: Good luck to all of your team!

Yes, these are not serious skins. Most of the future skins will be more suitable for the theme of the game. It's unlockable bonus, as a joke, along with some serious ones, you right. Thank you for your feedback!

Да, эти скины не серьёзные, но большинство будут нормальными! В стилистике игры. Это только наброски, которые не факт что войдут в игру. С Геной отличная идея вообще :D

No, I disagree. Contra can be cool and funny. If these are optional skins, it won't ruin the game, because you can decide whether or not you wear them.
