This game understands its genre better than most of the more popular Metroidvania games people flock to. I played through 15 hours of awesomeness. I enjoyed this way more than Metroid Dread or Nine Sols. Every upgrade is a pleasure to master. Every boss w

Great Metroidvania game. Movements are smooth, good design on the map and leveling. Each progression/level advancement feel very rewarding. Bosses battle are alittle bit too easy but I can enjoy it.
The background looks great.

while the graphics are a bit naïve, the gameplay is rather nice.

I enjoyed this a lot, especially the exploration parts. The map and upgrades were great. The boss fights ranged from fun to too easy (to be fair I was playing on casual) to dumb (stupid yeti), the story was okay, the controls took me a while to get used t

Short and sweet. Not a bad game for the genre. Way less acclaim than many games that it exceeds.

Iron Diamond is fun Metroidvania that's on the shorter side. As other reviews point out, it is, for much of it, non-linear - many initially inaccessible areas can be accessed through any of multiple different abilities which you could acquire in different

Floaty jumps, controls can get stuck after healing, a clashing visual style, got stuck in the rune smith menu (only happened once but once is enough to leave an impression), horrificly bad looking npcs, had to redo to last boss fight twice since game got

10h metroidvania for a cheap price. Game really deserves the metroidvania title.
It's a good game. Minus points for some crazy achievements instead of content based.
The map could be a bit more easy to understand and each area should have a completi

A low-budget but really decent Metroidvania with lots of exploration, abilities to discover, and mostly fluid movement. I'd recommend it even at full price if you're willing to tolerate the following:

A metroidvania made by what feels like a hobbyist. It's a little janky, but makes up for it with sincere level design and weapon progression and lots of gated exploration. If you a looking for a metroidvania that won't make you think too much or bang your

Mixed but positive. Fun for a couple bucks and a couple hours.
Good variety of environments but the art itself has a very amateurish quality that feels cheap (which it is!). Similarly the music is immediately forgettable. Most of the character designs f

My review is based on playing on 'normal' difficulty with 100% items collected.
Pros:
- Great non-linear exploration
- Movement upgrades are fairly unique, and even the typical ones are more interesting than usual
- Combat upgrades feel very strong

I came away from Iron Diamond with mixed feelings. To be upfront, I didn’t like the art style, I didn’t enjoy most of the music, and I found the writing uninteresting. These things weighed against my personal enjoyment, but despite all that, I could s

This game is so odd and janky. The controls are a bit slippery and it's hard to figure out where to go or what to do. The boss I found (and finally beat) took like literally over 50 tries. This one needs a bit more polish...

Worth more than $2 this is a charming game, I hope more people give it a shot especially at this price.
