Every update of this game is even fleshier and more awesome. The new update has two levels which have been revamped significantly and there's even a bit of story too (how the meat outbreak began). This will probably be the last time I cover Iron Meat until the release (which hopefully won't be too long), so I figured I'd go out all guns blazing with a no-hit video. :)

@@austinmorrison6953 Retro style has always been big, It's usually the newer generation or new gamers in general that don't appreciate where gaming has come from. The fact that retro gaming is in modern stages now, makes me wanna cry joy. I still go back to my super Nintendo and play stuff life Breath of fire, Illusion of Gaia, Super Mario.... whenever a AAA company fucks us.
The train level looks awesome. You have meat meteors falling in the background and it looks like it foreshadows the moon.

good to see it's being fleshed out more each update, meating the expectations and surprising contrarians
That intro looked like Doom, Akira, and Dead Space mashed together with a gameplay of contra influence. Should be good!

Other, older titles like Blazing Chrome and Super Cyborg are also games that I would consider better than Operation Galuga. It's not the WORST, but disappointing considering Wayforward previously made the amazing Contra 4.
The artwork here is gorgeous. And it goes into so much enemy variety too.

i absolutely love this game. the enemies design, the mutant boss design..the train,the bus,the hind d... it has does that Contra's Vibe.
Love the way you word your titles with such continuity
It's like Contra and Doom were smashed together with a hydraulic press!!!!! WOOOOOOO!!!!!
Epic late 80s, early 90s vibe. 👍 Thanks for sharing all these unique games, mate! 🫡
They're really 'Fleshing' out the story and game for sure hee hee. Nice little details being added more and more like the 'no-wifi signs and much more happening around in the background which really helps a lot in the appeal of this wonderful successor. Just I do hope it flourishes at full release! Just a lot you can do with the concept of infected vehicles/objects especially which is kinda the main charm of the game for me in my opinion. Seeing such both mundane and unexpected stuff get twisted and assimilated crudely into monsters such as an Elevator, window, or even a crate. reminds me a bit of those zombie vehicles from Zombie army which were the best thing in that game in my opinion as well. Even crossovers might be quite good too with what could be combined and all that heh...and fanart. Just hoping The TV tropes page also gets updated heavily too.

Considering metal slug was an inspiration hopefully we get to ride some bigass tank "like the 1st boss" or a plane.Also sea themed fleshers.Or some characters asisting in certain levels. So many posibilities
Damn this is cool. From the Cinemassacre guys too. The little touches (and big bloody ones) seem to give this enough oomph to stand out from just being a Contra clone. That train level's rad!
Now this is a much better version form the ones we say months to years ago!
I've been waiting for this game for a long time... Without a doubt it will be one of the best games inspired by Contra

THAT'S AWESOME AF
Watched your videos on this game and damn, it is growing along quite nicely. Just the glow-up of the tank boss is impressive on its own
Always nice to see the iterations of good ideas that improve on them, especially since I liked this idea from the beginning. The train stage looks neat, and you've improved too, ABG.
Crazy attention to details. Artistically impressive.
Such a cool concept, 2 types of iron joined.
i am so excited for this game i'm really impressed by it. absolutely love the morbid sense of urgency from the game's story. also i love the details in the background aren't for show and it tells the severity of an actual threat. the fact that the game is showing YOU that earth is fighting back with going on battles in the background and soldiers are helping you is really cool and awesome to watch while playing it. all of this is giving the game a personality and flavor i'm all happy and smiles from it. gotta say excellent video too!

@@MusicoftheDamned Geostorm is sort of an arcade style from the 90's, the pacing is like Contra Hard Corps and the player fires with weapons in both hands by default! I remember using a turbo controller to have something like that in Contra 3 since changing weapons was instant.
Just tried out the demo today. Can't hardly wait for the full release! Definitely gonna buy it!
Come to think of it, your Iron Meat alpha gameplay was the first video I saw on this channel years ago and boy if you got better at playing this game since. Take care!
That's a pretty good run :) Game looks and plays better and better with each iteration !
being able to break the level clear lights is a nice little touch honestly.

Talking about Vectorman influence.
Looks even more awesome than I thought. It’s like a Contra Nightmare version or something 🔥
I always love biopunk media creeping around stealthily like cockroaches in the night. glad to find this game.
Love it, likely going to buy this one, like many others you have previewed or playthrough'ed. 🔥
Ok that animated intro is absolutely incredible
It definitely wears it's inspiration on it's sleeve, but that isn't a bad thing. Contra is one of the greatest action platformers and one that I still enjoy going back through its many iterations. Love the artwork, excited to see where it goes.
Gives me major nostalgia vibes of going to the arcade standing in front of a machine trying to make that last quarter last as long as possible!! AWESOME!!
That weapon at 3:05 is such an 80s arcade capcom thing. Nostalgia. 🤣
the story telling, the pace, the music, the lighting, this is got badass written all over it.
This is better than operation Galuga
like the sound design. including the impacts of the metal surfaces
Woah some of the elements in this game would had made Contra even better than it already is. Gotta get this.
The same 2 levels, they released last year, now with an added animated intro. If they continue with this pace, the full game will be out in 2045.
I'm sure the intro animation has been made by Ian Miller That style is unmistakable and i've seen his works at a too much youger age to not be forgotten
seems like I watch Video Games played through more than Movies
Damn, this goes harder than the new Contra reboot. It even sounds like they got the laser from Abaddox.
This looks wiicked awesome, and hope it gets a physical cus I`m getting it!
Indie game has an art miles better than recent Contra release
Iron meat visualises what happens on the ground during R-type 😂
This is amazing!
That intro also reminds me of Berserk, which also reminds me how there should be a Contra style game but Berserk themed with similar gameplay expect you hack and slash trough hordes of fleshy contraptions.
That was sick!
This actually looks really dope.
It has Contra but also slightly Turrican vibes too . Im gonna get it . Looks amd sounds awesome !
It's looking great👍
From sounds of it, composer is Darkman007, who also made music for Super Cyborg. And I even managed to save version 1.1 of Super Cyborg instead of steam 1.23
Art style is impressive, especially the color pallet! Game does a lot of right things - you can easily tell there is passion and love put in!
That's my boy. Damn better than the shi y new contra games. Great artistic direction, metal music and good gameplay and old school arcade. What else we need: just a pack of beer 🍺

The sound effects of your intro sound like those of the Love, Death, & Robots intro.
Operation galuga from contra is great but this one looks even better.
Hey, man, you're pretty good at these, huh?
that was such an early 90's, maybe even late 80's intro. felt like i was watching xmen again or something for a moment.
This defiantly meats and exceeds expectations.
something like this would be dope as a Metroid-vania style game

It's the Doom Guy fighting The Beast from "Homeworld Cataclysm". What more can I say?
When is this beast of game actually releasing. Played the demo on my steam deck loved it.
This game is getting...beefier :D.
Инсайид инфа. Игра выйдет осенью, в сентябре-октябре, сразу на несколько актуальных платформ. Она и задержалась, только из-за того, что автор готовит игру под консоли.
AWESOME 😈🤘
This is better than triple-A 3D games to me.
The powerups always throw me off. M for Machinegun and S for Spread shot, sure those are straightforward enough, but B for some kind of wave machinegun? U for laser? and H for a grenade launcher? And E is some kind of projectile that splits forward on impact?
It's a like a fusion of contra hard corps with The Thing
nice CONTRA game
Looks nice. Like if contra and doom
Looks great. I remember they lept back and exploded on the nes but that was the nintendo flash. If they explode into gore i would go for the initial bullet impact rather thsn falling back first. NES was abstract annihilation and that is slightly different than gory destruction.
I need this masterpiece on consoles
*Игра выглядит интересно*
That's a lot of nuts...er, meat.
nice.
this trailer isnsiicckkk classic 80s style GOR!!!
Only a matter of time someone will port this over to the Mega Drive.
This has so many hidden references to other classics, even Prince of Persia. What difficulty setting was this?
I’m not a fan of contra games but this looks awesome

I got Carrion vibes from this.
The style of the game reminds me of an old mobile java game called "Liquidator ChNPP(Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant). I wonder if a team behind it is the same
