What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The OST is adrenaline pumping, and I like the enemy/boss designs.
Gameplay wise, I like the weapon upgrades.
What I mean is that this game is really cool, I'll give you 3 reasons to buy it: 1. if you like 2D Platform games, it's for you; 2. it has almost perfect graphics; 3. it's a game where the game mechanics can also help you complete it, and the achievements are easy to do.
It goes SO HARD: the graphics, the art design, the sound, the music, the story and progression.. it's just so good!
*Iron Meat* also supports couch co-op, making it a great game for multiplayer fun.
I would only want to play the game with a controller.
