Iron Meat

Iron Meat is a run-and-gun arcade shooter that immerses players in an apocalyptic future overrun by "The Meat," an iron-ravenous mass mutating everything in its path. Blast your way through retro-inspired stages and bosses to uncover the shocking horrors behind secret experiments on the Moon.

Following his triumph over the menacing Carrionvoy train monster, Vadim arrives beneath a military research base infested with Meat. Unaware of its current operations, Vadim enters the base--desperate to find any human survivors of the ongoing attack. With Meat tendrils and spores overgrowing along the corridors and within ventilation shafts, Vadim faces off against new Meat monster forms: Grub Eggs on the ceiling that drop their newly hatched critters to the ground, Meat Worms hanging on chains and crawling out of floor crevices, equipment boxes morphed into mouthy monsters that spawn either smaller Grub eggs or Blats, and more.

Upon noticing Vadim, the creature utilizes the security system to mount a cascading offensive of laser attacks against the supersoldier! But with persistence, Vadim kills the monster in the wall and continues on...

But soon after meeting the scientists, Vadim is immediately dropped to the lower levels of the base to take down a HUGE monster lurking below--the Big Rig Carnarach!

Taking an airbike from the Carnarach's corpse, Vadim flies off to follow a distress signal of an airship nearby...
