Iconoclasts is a gem. I played it while working on the final touches of The Glitch Fairy, and it inspired me to look over the game's dialogue again and rework a lot of stuff.

Make sure to play it if you like metroidvanias and great writing.

Restarting because I forgot Orthodox (sorry!)

Try to keep it mostly civil in the notes.

A long time ago, I was following an indie metroidvania whose name I can't even remember (Metal gear? Metal something, I'm pretty sure.) Anyway, I could have sworn they tore it all down and restarted as a new game, and I thought it was rune fencer Illlyia. But looking into it now, I'm not sure. Do you have any idea if this is right, or what game I might be thinking of?

The most notable examples of that development pattern that I can think of are Ghost Song and Iconoclasts.

Ghost Song was crowdfunded via Kickstarter in 2013; in 2018, the developer threw out their entire game engine and started over from scratch due to intractable structural problems stemming from early design decisions that had later turned out to be bad ideas. The game was released in 2022 in more or less the same form that was initially proposed, albeit with significant scope reductions.

Iconoclasts, meanwhile, began in 2007 as a completely different game called Ivory Springs; development was halted in 2010 and rebooted with a different visual style (necessitating that all visual assets developed up to that point be thrown out), and it was eventually released in 2018 as Iconoclasts. It's one of the bigger success stories for long-in-development metroidvanias, having been in the works for eleven years (counting the period during which it was called Ivory Springs) before debuting to very positive reviews.

I can't think of any notable metroidvanias off the top of my head which have followed this development pattern and also have the words "metal" or "gear" in their names, though Iconoclasts is partly about gears. Maybe it will ring a bell for one of this blog's followers?

Wish more people had played Iconoclasts. Black would fucking destroy tumblr lesbians. She's gay. She's exhausted. She's fucking ripped. She's got chronic migraines. She has a tragic backstory. She turns into a giant monster. She's the only normal person in the cast, somehow.
