About This Game

Iron Diamond is a 2D action adventure game across a rich interconnected world that blends sci-fi and medieval fantasy! Immerse yourself in a world that combines versatile combat, challenging platforming, and engaging puzzles. Navigate through great plains, icy peaks, tortuous castles, a treacherous volcano, and forgotten caverns to find your way to the Iron Diamond.

A QUEST IN KINDARA


As a futuristic weaponized Iron Extractor, you find yourself lost in the mystical land of Kindara. Tasked with seeking a valuable iron deposit, the IRON DIAMOND, you will encounter friend and foe along the journey while a deeper threat grows beneath the shadows.

CHALLENGE YOURSELF


You will be fighting a variety of enemies and challenging bosses with your array of close melee attacks (jabs, uppercuts, and downward strikes), as well as an arsenal of stackable projectile weapons (fire, ice, lightning, multishot, homing shot, missiles, and more).



Exploration won't be easy, as various platforming challenges bar the way forward. In order to navigate the treacherous paths, you will need to utilize the abilities given to you by runes that you find in the depths of the island.



Uncover enchanted runes to upgrade your suit with new combat and movement abilities that help you maneuver the island. With each new ability, new pathways open, and new battle strategies evolve! Some runes give passive abilities while others give abilities that you must expend energy points to use.



Increase your maximum health, energy, and attack damage via specialized iron-rich tank pickups! Stumble upon a myriad of other valuable items that each have their own unique part in the story. Some can be traded with NPCs, while others can be used in shops to upgrade your runes further. Many items are critical to the advancement of your quest!

A LABYRINTH TO UNCOVER


Utilize the ever-growing map menu to your advantage! Rely on the robust set of treasure and item markers to guide you and keep you informed, and use custom markers when you want those extra details.



Unlock elevators, boats, and mine carts to fast travel your way around previously encountered areas, making backtracking and exploration seamless without being tedious.

A LIVING WORLD


Experience a rich lore through artifacts and interactions with dozens of NPCs and shops across several evolving villages which bring the world of Kindara to life! Engage in a land of ever-changing weather conditions and a robust day-night cycle.
