Nightmare Mode previews the action-adventure PC title, 'The Iconoclasts'.
"Players focus on controlling Robin, a perky female mechanic with a penchant for helping out others with her talents. She doesn’t talk much, though she’s quite emotionally expressive via body language throughout the game. An interlude informs us that Robin’s dad was also a mechanic and that he died some time ago, though there’s no word on who or where her mother is.
The main antagonist is an oppressive, and perhaps even totalitarian, organization known as the Concern, which forbids unauthorized tampering with machinery and Ivory (the common fuel source). As you can imagine, this makes Robin an outcast in the eyes of many in her society, and much of the story deals with her interactions with soldiers, agents and citizens loyal to the Concern. The game hasn’t had much opportunity to flesh out this organization yet, but its members come across as similar to the Civil Protection in Half-Life 2, though low-ranking members are much more bumbling and nonthreatening."
TSA writes: "After nearly a decade of development, Iconoclasts – née The Iconoclasts – is finally out in the wild. A solo project by Swedish developer Joakim Sandberg, Iconoclasts is a superbly bright and punchy 2D action platformer, and an overt homage to the cheerful sprite adventures of the 90s. Nevertheless during its long gestation we’ve seen a myriad of similar games tugging on those same nostalgic heartstrings. Can Iconoclasts stand out amongst them?"
