Iron Meat is a fast-paced, retro-inspired run-and-gun arcade shooter blending classic side-scrolling action with brutal modern intensity. Set in a world consumed by “The Meat,” an interdimensional, iron-eating biomass, you play as the fighter Vadim tasked with blasting through hordes of mutated creatures, machines, and grotesque bosses to uncover the dark truth behind forbidden experiments on the Moon. The game’s nine action-packed levels evoke the spirit of beloved classics like Contra but with its own flair — packing multiple difficulty tiers, frantic enemy patterns, and gory pixel art that celebrates old-school arcade chaos with modern polish.
Combat is intense and satisfying, with multi-phase boss fights that demand pattern mastery and quick reflexes. Three difficulty settings let both newcomers and hardcore players dial in the perfect challenge level. For added fun, Iron Meat supports local 2-player couch co-op so you can team up with a friend and double the carnage. The game also offers over 30 unlockable skins, letting you customize your character with wild combinations — from robots with dinosaur feet to half-dog warriors — making each playthrough feel fresh and personal.
