Hey all! In this video we're looking at Iconoclasts - a 2D metroidvania game that was a long time coming. It's the result of just one person's work: Joakim Sandberg AKA Konjak. And it's pretty neat! I was torn on looking at the thematics of this game and it's long and fascinating history, and kind of ended up splitting the difference.

Anyways, let me know what you think!

Oh, and if you haven't been in the Discord: I'm working on something of a new series that (assuming it doesn't completely not work once it's all put together) will hopefully be up in the next week or two to boot! So look forward to that!

Iconoclasts (Spoilers)

Iconoclasts is a pretty neat game about shootin' things and solvin' puzzles and explorin' stuff. It's also a game about how roles and identities are built for you by society and how trying to conform or push back against those roles and identities can lead to suffering. Also: There are some really awesome boss fights. Oh, and if you want to play some of the earlier prototype works (or Chalk) I'd recommend checking out Sandberg's website at www.konjak.org ---- This episode was made possible by generous support through Patreon! http://www.patreon.com/errantsignal ----
