I remember waiting for Iconoclasts to release, back when I first got my computer. I only really knew of Konjak’s flash games, but I was very excited for whatever reason. I was a stupid nintendrone back then, so indie games were a big interest I guess.

Upon replay, I have a lot more to appreciate. In terms of gameplay, while the combat and movement are a little boring, I think the exploration and the puzzles are fun. The bosses are awesome too; they’ve got really sick pixel art, and there’s great art direction here in general. Gnarly machines, dope character designs with dope powers. There’s a person that shoots different laser beams out of his eyes depending on which glasses he puts on. Love that shit.

Storywise, this is a good message about giving a shit, and caring for people even if you don’t have a reason. The dialogue is well-written, and the characters explore some serious subjects. I love the world and lore of this game as well. I almost wish there was a prequel maybe about Elro or the One Concern. Certainly doesn’t need it but it’d be cool.
I really recommend this if you like a little indie spectacle. It’s short and engaging. Reminds me why I love indies
