Iconoclasts (Video Game)	comment	Iconoclasts is a Metroidvania Platform Game developed by Joakim "konjak" Sandberg and published by Bifrost Entertainment, formerly a retraux Cave Story-influenced project called Ivory Springs. It was in development for seven years before finally releasing in January of 2018.Robin is a mechanic (complete with massive wrench) living in a world that's slowly withering away. Her society relies on Ivory, an energy source controlled by a powerful organization called One Concern, which is the center of a religion represented by a figure known as Mother. Robin is not permitted to do mechanical work due to their regulations, but she does it anyway. When she's found out and becomes a sinner in the eyes of the world, she embarks on an adventure with other outcasts in order to stop Mother and One Concern once and for all, and find out what's really happening to the planet.The game's release trailer is here. Links to buy the game, as well as downloads for the 2012 alpha and the Ivory Springs alpha, can be found on Konjak's website.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_116a941b	type	Applied Phlebotinum
Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_116a941b	comment	Applied Phlebotinum: Ivory is used to power all technology and the Concern's stranglehold on it is the basis for their control of all society besides the pirates/Isi, who get it from underwater Ivory pustules. It can function as a battery for a home, a component to be used in Item Crafting, a source of immortality and superpowers for those with the necessary constitution, and ultimately gasoline for some alien bird's space truck. This ubiquity is eventually explained, as everything on the planet and its two moons, aside from things which came from the human colonists' ships and the Blue Eyes, is partially composed of Ivory. All of the unique square plants and native life have Ivory as their essence, and revert to a pink-purple dust when drained of it. Ivory-infused individuals' immortality and superpowers are actually an ability to drain Ivory from their surroundings or manipulate it.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_135b9977	comment	Bloodless Carnage: None of the dead bodies seen in the game, whether it's One Concern soldiers killed in their civil war or the Tower's pupils killed by Mother's Corners ever display blood. The only exceptions are the Alien Blood of the Transcended individuals, which is white like Ivory, and the green blood of the final boss, an actual alien. However, a scene when Agent Black subverts this when she rips off Elro’s arm, as it has a couple of blood splatters. Elro spends the rest of the game walking around with a bandaged but still oozing stump where his arm used to be, his med-tape and shirt thoroughly saturated with his own blood.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_18bf4326	type	Anti-Magic
Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_18bf4326	comment	Anti-Magic: The Isi's seeds have extremely volatile reactions when exposed to Ivory, making them grow instantaneously; this makes them an excellent tool for wrecking Concern technology, which is reliant on Ivory. Royal also notes that even though his powers allow him to control plants enough to sprout them in the middle of the desert at will, he is completely unable to affect the plants grown from these seeds because Royal's powers work by manipulating the Ivory in an object, but the Isi plants don't have any Ivory in them because they're from Earth. They also work disturbingly well on humans who have been injected with Ivory, being used to take out Agent White and Mother (Agent Black resists their effects until the blue eyes mutate her). When Robin jams a seed into the Starworm, the resulting explosion causes a wave of nature to overtake the whole planet. Detritus is a pinkish-purple powder that is produced whenever an object is drained of its Ivory. It is very much anti-Ivory, negating the Healing Factor of ivory-infused individuals and, in the case of Royal, completely shutting down his powers. Black kills Royal in a pit of Detritus at the end of One Concern West (she planned to kill Chrome there, but he had other plans), though he revives himself shortly after his body leaves the room. Elro's work with the ChemiCo Contra led to him inventing a serum that instantly removes Ivory from matter and turns it into Detritus, which is one of the few things that can kill Transcended humans.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_1bfc720a	comment	Boss Arena Recovery: Many bosses will summon some type of minion or use a destroyable projectile attack that has a chance to drop health. The first fight against Agent Black is a particularly egregious example: Three times during the fight she uses an unavoidable attack that always brings you down to one hit away from death, and then immediately summons a bunch of weak Controllers that are guaranteed to drop health pickups while she just slowly walks around doing the "Well! What is it?" gesture and not attacking, giving you plenty of time to kill the Controllers and get your health meter up to 75% full.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_1c445e86	type	Poor Communication Kills
Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: Mother blames Royal for hastening the end of the world by destroying an Omega Controller, whose demise sent out a signal to the Starworm to come down, and made the earthquakes afflicting the planet from Ivory loss completely uncontrollable. However, Mother (and the other One Concern officials) are also partially at fault because none of them bothered telling Royal anything that was going on, namely that Ivory mining has left the planet on the brink of destruction, destroying the Omega Controller would just make things worse, and the One Concern has been working on a rocket to help at least part of humanity escape before it's too late. Equally, when Royal first suggests his plan to see Mother, neither Robin nor Elro bother to tell Royal that Elro murdered an agent unprovoked, and so is highly unlikely to receive help at the best of times. Of course, Royal also neglects to mention that he's merely talking about spiritual healing rather than physical healing; had the rest of the party known that from the start, they likely wouldn't have bothered trying to confront Mother in the first place. Nobody bothered to fill General Chrome in on the details of the One Concern's ultimate goal. His anger at learning about the plan and finding out that he and his men were going to be left behind is part of what inspires him to kick off the Enemy Civil War.

Then, there are the Squints, which are much stronger enemies of this nature encountered in the Isilugar Depths. They are heavily armored, and positioned in such a way that simply stunning them with a bomb shot still leaves their spiny backs blocking the path. Instead, you must curve it in such a way that it detonates the explosive tip of their tail.

Agent White has cybernetic eyes that allow him to shoot Eye Beams, Agent Chrome has cybernetic legs, and Agent Black is revealed to have cybernetic arms. Eventually, Royal reveals that any individual who survives Transcendence but doesn't perfectly merge with the Ivory like Mother and Royal did will end up with a certain body part consumed by the Ivory. Said body part is then replaced by an implant that gives said individual their powers, while itself functioning only due to the Ivory in the rest of the person's body. As such, General Chrome has cybernetic legs and Agent Grey had cybernetic neck or ears. Ash, who complained about gut pains, might have lost an internal organ to gain invisibility.

When Mina sees that the One Concern have an ark of their own much later on, she goes on a very similar rant. During the credits: the Ivory spores seen around the planet after Robin restored its original environment through injecting Isi seed into Star Worm's body are the same ones that fly around during the third phase of Agent Black's final fight.

One can be found in Shard Desert (right before you meet Royal, up and to the left of the save statue), another appears in Ferrier Shockwood (drop through the floor in the room to the left of the crafting table), and one more appears in One Concern West after getting the Usurper Gun (two rooms to the right of the save statue after the gun; use it on the bomb-throwing snake on the right and climb down the hidden ladder). invoked The first time you visit the third floor on the left side of the Tower, there are two Bastion guards hanging out behind some boxes you can't climb over. Using a long dive to jump over the boxes reveals that unlike most characters you aren't supposed to interact with, these two actually have some fourth wall-busting dialogue:

In addition, Robin only has three tweak slots for the entire game, so powerful combat Tweaks (such as faster charge shot renewal, a wall-piercing Usurper Shot, and massive Roller Bomb explosions) are going to be set aside for the ones that let you move faster, solve puzzles quicker, and take less damage. The Roller Bomb's charge shot is a powerful missile with the highest range of any attacks Robin can use. Unfortunately, in addition to the long charge and cooldown time it has, it can only fire straight forward and needs a split second to ready itself before it blasts off; if the missile hits anything in the short range it flies before igniting, the attack is wasted. You'll probably use the missile for puzzle-solving and an incidental enemy or two, since it's all but useless against most bossesnote That being said, occasionally there is a situation where focusing on dodging far from the boss and periodically sending a high-damage missile onto them is a viable option - one such happens to be against difficult Bonus Boss.

As it turns out, they are referring to the Isi, an ethnic group of people with their own religion, who live off the grid to protect themselves from One Concern. The Isi indeed take offense to the term.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_2d364c81	comment	Tomboy and Girly Girl: Mina and Robin. Mina carries a large shotgun, bashes things with the butt of her gun, has enough body odor that a trained hunter can track by scent, and gets angry a lot. Her chosen profession at the start of the game is wandering the world looking for stuff to steal as a thief. Robin may be a mechanic with an oversized wrench, but also carries a small stun pistol, apparently bathes regularly, gets flustered and scared far more easily, and dolls up her hair. Her chosen profession at the start of the game is to fix up and nurture a settlement near where she lives. This distinction is on display in the fight against Mother, wherein Robin counters and dodges Mother's attacks, occasionally stunning Mother and pulling her out from protection while Mina is the one to do the actual damage against her by shoving seeds into her body, after Robin has made her vulnerable.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_2f755152	comment	Far more egregious example at City One. Usually, you are locked into a boss battle by the One Concern metal doors activating behind you. However, this doesn't happen when fighting Mother, because all she wants is for you to get out of the way, and let her converse with her people in peace. She even offers to talk to you at the Bastion at first, before ordering Bastion Elites to escort you there. Yet, you are forced to fight regardless, the way out blocked by an Invisible Wall, even though the reason you wanted to meet her in the first place was so that she could heal Elro, which she obviously can't do at all once she's dead.

Not to mention removal of it causes things to turn into a purple dust that inhibits said powers. On the other hand, considering how the birdman piloting the Starworm (AKA Him) treats the stuff, it may just be a strange, mutagenic oil.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_3b79029a	comment	Crapsaccharine World: The world under One Concern seems to be prosperous and happy, with green pastures and the like, especially the paradise of City One, which is white, beautiful, and peaceful. However, this is only if you are in the Concern's favor- those who are branded heretics are hunted down and killed via Penance, in which you are trapped in your home and it is brought down upon you. Agents of the Concern have it little better, as they are forced into the horrific Transendence experiments where their blood is replaced with Ivory; many do not even survive, and those who do are tormented by their bodies. And lastly, the world is falling apart mainly because of One Concern's Ivory mining, and rather than stop, the elites opt to build a rocket, escape, and leave everyone else to die. Downplayed with Isilugar. At first glance, it seems like a perfectly pleasant place to live in. In a lot of ways, it is, specially if you compare it with life in the Settlements where even minor, unintended crimes can result in Penance. Life in Isilugar is more relaxed and free, with the Isi religion being all about love and reproduction. That last part has a catch, however. Turns out the Isi religion is not perfect, either. Arranged marriages are common, and procreation is seen as a vital responsibility of every adult, which means that people who are unable or unwilling to reproduce, like Doctor Gustavo, who doesn't want to pass on his genetic disease, are seen as outcasts, through no fault of their own. That also means that Mina and Samba's relationship is probably also frowned upon, which might explain why it's played with such ambiguity throughout the game.

Agent Black is the boss of both One Concern West and the Rocket Platform, where she's technically fought three times; once as an invincible enemy while activating the rocket, another time as a true rematch in front of the rocket, and then as the Ivory Beast, which has two forms.

She has been like this for almost 200 years, so it's no wonder she's such a grouch all the time, and why her sanity could take such an abrupt nosedive as it did. Agents in general are stuck with this, as the very act of Transcending has caused them to lose limbs or organs which require prosthetic replacement.

Robin stops Armageddon from occurring by destroying the Starworm and its pilot to prevent him from siphoning off the remaining Ivory keeping the planet together, while nature repairs the planet after she (and potentially Mina) sticks an Isi seed into Starworm's Ivory-infused corpse. It's also implied ChemiCo Contra are making headway into alternative energy research, like the naturally-occurring energy of the Ferrier Shockwood, to ensure the planet won't come so close to the brink again. Finally, Mina returns home to her girlfriend Samba, and the planet being safe now ensures that Mina won't have to run off anymore to leave the people she loves worrying about her. On the other hand, the demise of One Concern's transcended leaders like Mother, Chrome and Royal results in dozens of rank-and-file soldiers dying in the civil war, while most pupils at the Tower were killed by Mother's Corners, and the remainder appear unable to adapt to the independent life. The cycle of revenge between Agent Black and Elro ends with the former dying a horrible death, her remains burnt up in the atmosphere as B-17 took off, while the latter is alive, but crippled and embittered. Elro in turn ends up finally conceding the point that Robin is more than capable on her own, and he won't tell Robin what to do anymore. But had he just listened from the beginning instead of being a Knight Templar Big Brother, things probably wouldn't have turned out so badly for him.

The setting is a mix of modern and sci-fi, so most other characters use guns or explosives. As a result, there's a total of only four sword-wielding characters across the game. Three of them are villains: The katana-wielding Silver Watchman, and Mother's Corners, two warriors who each carry broadswords. The remaining sword user, Elro, is not a villain, but he is a bitter and stubborn man that kickstarted the biggest conflicts in the plot, and his nihilistic attitude nearly has the team fail, several times. Also, by the end, he kills with no remorse. It even plays into his combat style: Robin merely stuns human enemies, but Elro uses his sword to go in for the kill. It really says something that the only Reborn who did not survive the fight at One Concern East was Lawrence, who fought Elro and got a sword to the back (while he was down, mind you) for his troubles.

Once reduced to just a head, all the Carver machine in Ferrier Shockwood can do is spin its blades to produce debris. Elro will jam his sword into the blades to lock them up, at which point Robin has to charge up and grab a rail to ram into the head and knock it back; this repeats for a while, with Robin occasionally dislodging Elro’s sword from the ceiling, until the Carver nearly falls off a cliff (the "abyss" was only a few feet deep, but the Controller that Mina was chasing pops out and wrecks it). Mendeleev works somewhat like this. If she's shot while she's in the air outside of her fiery mode, she gets knocked back and temporarily stunned. If she falls into an active electric current in this state, she gets zapped and loses a lot more health than she does from individual shotgun blasts.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_480c69ba	comment	Infinity -1 Sword: The Usurper gun, which is acquired roughly three-fourths of the way through the game. It deals more damage than the standard stun pistol, hits enemies multiple times, and kills many enemies that are otherwise outright invincible. However, its shots lack the homing ability of the standard gun, and shooting too rapidly will cause it to overheat, limiting its DPS.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_504a1991	comment	Body Horror: The entire process of Transcending, which involves injecting Ivory directly into a person's body. A few people will succeed and survive the process with superpowers, though some will lose body parts in the process. And the many that fail basically melt into puddles of white goo. Even if it does work out, those who Transcend are plagued by sharp chronic pains, and Transcended people who live long enough will find themselves consumed by the Ivory; Father is essentially comatose, Fitzroy turned into a mindless being made of dripping Ivory, while Leticia kept her sanity but is no longer recognizably human. Agent Black takes the cake when the blue eyes try to possess her while Isi Seeds sprout from her body. The end result is a giant monstrosity with Ivory trees sprouting all over its body and clusters of eyes hidden inside said trees. The horrors of chemistry are demonstrated when Elro develops a serum that forcibly ejects all Ivory from matter, causing the object to turn into Detritus dust. Its real purpose is to be used on Transcended humans, who are practically filled with Ivory. The result? The affected person's skin turns purple as they start deforming and boiling alive, until they explode into a fine purple mist.

Defeating the game's final Superboss gets you a tweak, but it's a Joke Item called Roulette that's meant to make things more challenging by adding random status effects to Robin.

Mother's Corners are an even more severe example.

The boss is invisible, and if he sees Robin or Mina out of hiding, he’ll rush to them (regardless of who the player is controlling) and slam them into the ground for unavoidable damage. To deal damage, the duo has to stay in hiding spots (there are bushes and puddles to hide in, but Mina can only hide in puddles) until he starts wandering around; his location is signaled by sound waves and rustling grass, and he’s vulnerable to attack at this time.

Early in the timeline: Agent Black mentions her repeated suicide attempts untold numbers of years ago, until she finally accepted it was too easy for her to be brought back. We first get to see what the "prototype" Tolo mentioned at the One Concern camp does when a pupil at the tower, Gerry, briefly escapes it inside Hazard Armor and sees that the outside world is fine so he's shot with it, and led to commit suicide by falling. Mr. Andress is implied to commit suicide by drowning. At one point, he can be seen sitting on a dock, and when talked to will muse about his dead wife and how she always wanted to teach him how to swim. On later visits, he's nowhere to be seen. After the events of City One, Aisling Ferrier and Emmet Darland are seen trying to strangle each other with their scarves, fearful of the incoming Star Worm. It's somewhat fitting, given that Darland was one of those who ordered to stage Gerry's suicide. The end credits, however, reveal that he survives, while Ferrier is nowhere to be seen. Also in that same scene, another suit has blown his brains out, slumped over a desk with a gun in his hand.

Neither option is possible (the seeds don't come up again until One Concern West), and the actual solution is to jump up to a hidden ledge that leads to a crawlspace going directly into Black's room, which is marked by a small outcropping but is easy to miss in the panic. All three key item quests have a confusing trait to them. Laurie's letter delivery is simply transferring key items back and forth between two people, but the location of the second person is hidden well. The cupcake quest starts simple since you can find its NPC in several areas, but the person you give the item to in Ferrier Shockwood just takes it without giving you anything; you must go back to the original person to get a different item and then backtrack to receive your reward. The Soldier's RSVP is the trickiest: you can get the letter after Isilugar Labs, but it won't be relevant until the end of One Concern West (at which point the game encourages to progress to the endgame), and you can't deliver the item since the recipient was killed in Black's rampage, so after examining the body you have to return to the Isilugar jail cell to report your failure and receive the quest reward. Both Bonus Bosses are tricky to activate, especially for players who make a habit of exploring past areas as soon as they can. For Fitzroy, you first have to meet Leticia in five separate locations; the first time is in Blockrock right in the open, but the rest are in out-of-the-way areas around the map, one of which requires the Galvanized Wrench to reach (she places her flag in the room next to where she is, as a slight hint). The hiding spots are sequenced and she sometimes only appears after enough story progression, making it more confusing. After the final encounter, you have to swim to the secret cavern deep within Glass Strait; the only hint for this is that Leticia's flag is on the water's surface, but it's in an area that has little purpose otherwise. Mother's Corners can only be fought at the very end of the game after the Starworm crash-lands in Blockrock, where it really doesn't seem like there’s anything else to do (unless you notice a missing space in the tweak collection box). It's at least easier to find the items necessary for the fight, though they are spread out a bit and one is way back in The Tower. The hint the items give is also a bit confusing. There are only slight hints that the Usurper Gun's swapping shot works on City One's gatekeeper and Mother, and no hints that it can remove the blue eyes protecting enemies in the Impact Zone.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_727b944e	comment	Plot Tunnel: There are large chunks of the game where the plot restricts Robin from backtracking to other areas until she makes enough progress. After Robin washes up at Shard Wasteland, she's locked out of Blockrock until the first act of the game wraps up following Isilugar Labs, since she can't get out of Shard Wasteland without the electified wrench. This plot tunnel has several smaller plot tunnels within: Robin can't return to Shard Wasteland once she gets to Isilugar, and she can't leave Isilugar Labs until she beats Agent White. Once Robin gets captured at the end of Ferrier Shockwood, she has to go through two areas (The Tower and Darland Ascent) with no way of leaving either until Mina unlocks a fast travel station for her. You can't leave One Concern West once you enter it, and after finishing the plot there you have a brief opportunity to fast-travel out of it to resume exploring; go any further, and you enter the first section of the endgame and can't return to exploring until right before The Very Definitely Final Dungeon.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_7fbb2a3	type	Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!
Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_7fbb2a3	comment	Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Royal is particularly good at this. First, he accidentally activates and is forced to destroy the Omega Controller, which throws the planet's ecosystem out of balance and summons the Starworm. He heads to City One to confront Mother to have him heal Elro's arm, which basically allows Chrome to start his rebellion, which sparks a vicious civil war in City One. Royal also attacks the Starworm when it ignores him, only causing it to be angered and attack the planet. Though that last one may have been for the best, as the attack left a vulnerable spot on the Starworm, and it's likely a fight would have occurred regardless of Royal's assault. Elro is a Knight Templar Big Brother of the first order, and his actions cause more problems than they solve. In particular, he started the whole affair by killing Agent Grey in a Moment of Weakness, which fueled Agent Black's hatred for him and his family, including Robin. Later in the game, Elro attempts to confront Black one-on-one, and gets his arm ripped off for his troubles. Then, when he has to press a button to launch a rocket into space with Robin on it, Elro outright refuses to do it, even though Robin needs to go to the moonbase to save the world. Mina even shoots Elro in the leg to prevent him from leaving. Later on, it's heavily implied that Teegan had to push the button to launch the rocket instead of Elro because of how stubborn he was.]]

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_902fa0b4	comment	Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: Interestingly, it's not the enormous worm from the stars that crashes down onto your planet — the worm's pretty well established in the lore of the game, and bears a resemblance to some previously fought bosses. It's the giant, muscular alien bird piloting the worm, who was never hinted at before the fight, and is never properly explained afterward as the game ends. Context allows you to piece together that the planet used to be a fuel depot for starship pilots like him that was colonized by humans, but he's still an alien bird of an otherwise unknown species, with no dialogue and no connection to any other characters, and he's the final boss. Similarly, the blue eye corruption seems to appear out of nowhere after Robin escapes the Tower and it's never explained what exactly it is. Computers in the underground area hint it's some sort of biotech, it can be seen when using the fast travel system at the core of the planet, it is present at the core of the Omega Controller, and the Starworm has a cluster of the eyes roughly where another creature would have actual eyes. There's speculation that the blue eye substance is produced by the bird pilot species, whether naturally or through technology, and its existence is what allowed it to control Star Worm all along. For what it's worth, the article positing that link, among other things, was retweeted by konjak himself.

After her death, Emmet Darland takes over and tries to stop the heroes from reaching the moon; once they do, the Starworm becomes the final threat who tries to destroy the world for its Ivory.

Once Mother dies, Emmet and the Suits take over what remains of the One Concern, intending to carry out her plan to flee to the moon.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_9a3b7208	type	The Needs of the Many
Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_9a3b7208	comment	The Needs of the Many: One of the Central Themes of the game. Both the heroes and the villains undergo a philosophy of doing the wrong thing for the right reason, or doing something wicked for what they feel is right. But while the heroes are willing to self-sacrifice in pursuit of the needs of the many, the villains aren't; the bad guys are either massive hypocrites who say they're acting for the good of humanity but really care only about saving their own skin, or intentionally manipulating this attitude for personal gain. Robin, Mina, Royal, and Elro all practice some form of self-sacrifice in the name of the greater good. Robin has Chronic Hero Syndrome, Mina pursues the One Concern in the name of saving the Isi (even if she hates herself for it for constantly abandoning her mother and her girlfriend), Elro is willing to attempt a Heroic Sacrifice in the name of saving Robin's life by confronting Agent Black alone, and Royal eventually comes to lose his Holier Than Thou attitude in the name of helping the good guys and saving the world. Agent Black, Agent Chrome, and Mother are all primarily interested in themselves. Agent Black is a hypocrite who slowly goes insane with grief and thinks that the world isn't worth saving, Agent Chrome preaches obeying Mother but secretly wants to take over the One Concern for himself, and Mother preaches loving all of her children while secretly wanting to use each and every single one of them for herself; if they can't help her anymore, they're worthless.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_9af10b44	comment	For the purposes of a single playthrough, the Featherweight tweak gives Robin a Double Jump. But since it's granted after defeating one of the Superbosses, the effect is basically useless, since all that's left to do is to either fight the Final Boss or go after a few missed treasure chests, to which a double jump is only tangenitally useful.

This is your first big clue that Elro didn't die with the rest of his family in the Penance, as he's the fourth save icon. Averted with Agent Black, who is the fifth save slot yet never joins the party. There is a menu box that shows which tweaks Robin has made, with dots representing tweaks that she hasn't discovered. There are only around fourteen dots in the menu, but enough empty space in the box to hold two more icons; those spaces are for the schematics placed near the two Bonus Bosses.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: Quite a few things get hinted at pretty early on. After beating the first boss, you may notice some large black feathers attached to the underside of the planet spine you fought the boss on, which obviously came from the Birdman (or at least a Birdman). The Agents being superhuman is shown by Agent White throwing Robin into the wall in the scene introducing the Agents. Agent Black's constant headaches get a small foreshadow by her pinching the bridge of her nose in almost every scene before her fights. A slightly bigger piece of foreshadowing is how she winces every time Agent White suddenly bursts out in his Large Ham No Indoor Voice. At the One Concern camp in the Shard Desert, the other wanted fugitive is a "Myron" whose mapmaking is illegal. The reason why doesn't become clear until Darland Ascent. Samba and Mina's dialogues drop massive hints towards their relationship.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_9edbda07	comment	Elite Mooks: The aptly named Bastion Elites. Whereas the regular One Concern soldiers wear grey uniform with blue helmet visors and fight with submachine guns and grenades, Bastion Elites have also possess white breastplates and white helmets with purple visors. Their main weapon is a like an evolved version of Robin's stun gun, whose bomb shots produce a fiery Shockwave Stomp running in both directions, while their primary shot is also powerful (though it can be deflected at them with a wrench.) They can also dodge shots and rapidly cover distance by sliding along the ground. The trope is subverted, though, in that while they are better suited to close-range indoor fighting, they are not exceedingly powerful next to the regular Attackers and Defenders. In particular, a full burst from the Attacker's submachine gun still does far more damage than any of the Elite's attacks, even though it's easier for the player to dodge. As such, when Mother's death and Chrome's revelations trigger a civil war between Bastion Elites formerly loyal to Mother, and Attackers/Defenders loyal to Chrome, the visible casualties appear in a strict 1/1 ratio. In the end, Bastion Elites appear completely wiped out, at least at City One, with regular Attackers prevailing, even if it only happened through sheer numbers.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_a0bb0b37	comment	Elro is a Knight Templar Big Brother of the first order, and his actions cause more problems than they solve. In particular, he started the whole affair by killing Agent Grey in a Moment of Weakness, which fueled Agent Black's hatred for him and his family, including Robin. Later in the game, Elro attempts to confront Black one-on-one, and gets his arm ripped off for his troubles. Then, when he has to press a button to launch a rocket into space with Robin on it, Elro outright refuses to do it, even though Robin needs to go to the moonbase to save the world. Mina even shoots Elro in the leg to prevent him from leaving. Later on, it's heavily implied that Teegan had to push the button to launch the rocket instead of Elro because of how stubborn he was.]]

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_a15af1f3	comment	Downplayed with Isilugar. At first glance, it seems like a perfectly pleasant place to live in. In a lot of ways, it is, specially if you compare it with life in the Settlements where even minor, unintended crimes can result in Penance. Life in Isilugar is more relaxed and free, with the Isi religion being all about love and reproduction. That last part has a catch, however. Turns out the Isi religion is not perfect, either. Arranged marriages are common, and procreation is seen as a vital responsibility of every adult, which means that people who are unable or unwilling to reproduce, like Doctor Gustavo, who doesn't want to pass on his genetic disease, are seen as outcasts, through no fault of their own. That also means that Mina and Samba's relationship is probably also frowned upon, which might explain why it's played with such ambiguity throughout the game.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_a5fb0d24	comment	Detritus is a pinkish-purple powder that is produced whenever an object is drained of its Ivory. It is very much anti-Ivory, negating the Healing Factor of ivory-infused individuals and, in the case of Royal, completely shutting down his powers. Black kills Royal in a pit of Detritus at the end of One Concern West (she planned to kill Chrome there, but he had other plans), though he revives himself shortly after his body leaves the room. Elro's work with the ChemiCo Contra led to him inventing a serum that instantly removes Ivory from matter and turns it into Detritus, which is one of the few things that can kill Transcended humans.

In reality, One Concern's Ivory mining is the main reason the planet is suffering earthquakes as the planet's crust has difficulty holding itself together and resisting magma beneath, and if things continued the same way, it would have collapsed like the moon. Once One Concern leadership understood this, they opted to build a rocket to escape the planet and potentially relocate the rest of the population there if they had enough time, rather than trying to reverse the process. Moreover, the planet is anything but preserved: Omega Controller changes the shape of the entire continents at its whim. Since its destruction summons the Star Worm, the best One Concern came up with was to execute any map-makers so that the secret wouldn't get out.

Ones that are always invincible include: Herculeans are big one-eyed boulders that can't be destroyed, though they can be knocked back by Robin's wrench. One found early on can be killed by slamming it into the ceiling with a door, but this isn't an option for any others. The Hazard Armor enemies are special Concern troops that can't be hurt or even stunned. The first time you encounter one is in a pseudo-boss fight where you have to play chicken with it while breaking down an ice block, but later ones just have to be avoided. Blue-eye possessed Bipedro enemies also can't be damaged... by you. However, you need them to break down certain walls for you, so it's probably a good thing that you can't accidentally kill them and render the game Unwinnable. After they are done, there is usually a convenient pit of Spikes of Doom nearby that you can make them run into which will kill them. They also are the game's only non-respawning enemies.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_cb70651c	comment	Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: On the one hand, Ivory is revered as sacred and powerful for good reason, as it can cause superpowers in those exposed to high amounts of the stuff, ultimately culminating in psychic powers that border on Reality Warping and an absurdly powerful Healing Factor. Not to mention removal of it causes things to turn into a purple dust that inhibits said powers. On the other hand, considering how the birdman piloting the Starworm (AKA Him) treats the stuff, it may just be a strange, mutagenic oil. There's a comparable quandary with the "Penance". While a house being ground down from underneath by a Controller acting as a giant buzzsaw is clearly not magical, it's unclear how much control the One Concern has over the process. Even Black appears genuinely uncertain when she asks Robin if she's the reason for all the Penance in her Settlement, so it's possible all Penance happens because the Omega Controller sent minor Controllers there, while One Concern can at most signal which house they would like destroyed, and ensure City One remains untouched. As such, Mrs. Andress' Penance for creating small maps was probably Omega Controller's own decision to ensure its planet-altering properties are not found out, since no-one besides Mr. Andress appears to have even known of it.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	comment	Anti-Frustration Features: Robin's Ground Pound has a minor homing effect when used above an enemy, so you'll still land the hit if you attempt a Goomba Stomp but your aim is slightly off. During boss fights, incidental dialogue said by the NPC heroes will give hints as to how to defeat them. For instance, in the Climax Boss fight in City One, Mina will shout "come down here, coward!" at the boss, hinting that you need to use the Usurper's charge shot to bring them to the ground. These hints will also be highlighted in red text for you to notice exactly what you need to do. In Challenge Mode, Lawrence takes six hits to defeat instead of twelve. Very convenient for a fight where one mistake means repeating the entire fight, and you're playing as Elro, who is extremely slow but quite strong. The first boss fight with Agent Black features an attack that Robin cannot dodge no matter what, and reduces her HP to critical levels. As compensation, weak enemies will always spawn right after Agent Black uses this move, and these enemies will always drop health pick-ups. A late-game boss fight features Robin trapped in a room which fills with poison gas. Taking damage from this gas is unavoidable, with Robin's health bar essentially acting as a time limit for the fight. As compensation, her health drains much slower than when she runs out of oxygen underwater. When loading a save from the main menu, you can change which difficulty you're playing on. So if you find one particular section too difficult, you can always lower the difficulty and raise it back up once you're ready. There are a few One-Time Dungeon levels in the game. But there are never any treasure chests, sidequests, or key items that can be missed in these areas so that nothing is Permanently Missable Content.

As such, they often end up getting in each other's way, before things break down into a total Enemy Civil War.

Most bosses tend to become weaker as the battle goes, forced to use less effective and impressive attacks as they become more and more damaged. For instance, the final battle against Agent Black has her rapidly firing a rocket launcher at Robin, with multiple rockets at a time. Just before what would be the last hit, Black is barely able to stand, spitting curses at Robin and dragging herself closer, but Black's barely a threat anymore until you deliver the final blow.

Iconoclasts (Video Game) / int_e567510d	comment	The Isi's seeds have extremely volatile reactions when exposed to Ivory, making them grow instantaneously; this makes them an excellent tool for wrecking Concern technology, which is reliant on Ivory. Royal also notes that even though his powers allow him to control plants enough to sprout them in the middle of the desert at will, he is completely unable to affect the plants grown from these seeds because Royal's powers work by manipulating the Ivory in an object, but the Isi plants don't have any Ivory in them because they're from Earth. They also work disturbingly well on humans who have been injected with Ivory, being used to take out Agent White and Mother (Agent Black resists their effects until the blue eyes mutate her). When Robin jams a seed into the Starworm, the resulting explosion causes a wave of nature to overtake the whole planet.

Then, Agent Black rips off his arm, yet he doesn't bleed out (though he does receive medical help from Chrome's army a short while later. He also goes back to wielding his sword in the other hand soon afterwards. Lastly, he is shot in the leg by Mina, severely enough to lose consciousness for a while, and yet eventually regains consciousness by the time Robin gets back from the moon. Again, he receives medical help afterwards, but it's unclear how much time passed since then. At the end of the game, Elro is left crippled but very much alive.

You have to leave Royal to die on a decompressing Midway, as one scanner is pulled too far away from the door to work while you're carrying him, and the other is just flat out broken, meaning trying to use the Usurper Shot to position him near it would be pointless even if it did work. The game even twists the knife by giving you way more time than you need to escape, as if to suggest that there is actually a way to save Royal. There isn't; you have no choice but to leave Royal to die in order to continue the story. Far more egregious example at City One. Usually, you are locked into a boss battle by the One Concern metal doors activating behind you. However, this doesn't happen when fighting Mother, because all she wants is for you to get out of the way, and let her converse with her people in peace. She even offers to talk to you at the Bastion at first, before ordering Bastion Elites to escort you there. Yet, you are forced to fight regardless, the way out blocked by an Invisible Wall, even though the reason you wanted to meet her in the first place was so that she could heal Elro, which she obviously can't do at all once she's dead.
