Team Trashtronaut Opens Kickstarter For Low-Poly Horde Shooter PIG IRON
The campaign hit its funding goal on day one of the listing, so the ask now shifts to stretch goals that decide how much of the planned content actually ships.
Reporting from 1 source: Game Spark.
Team Trashtronaut has launched a Kickstarter campaign for PIG IRON, a high-tempo horde shooter with light mecha simulation elements. Players pilot a six-ton armored weapon built from rusted steel and exposed organs, fighting hundreds of escaped biotech weapons. A demo is available on itch.io. The $6,000 goal has already been reached, and planned additions include five or more levels, five or more enemy characters, and three or more bosses.
The pitch leans on tone as much as mechanics: a six-ton machine of rusted steel and exposed organs, an industrial soundtrack from Prahno Audio, and swarms of biotech flesh weapons to cut through. Three weapons are in the build, each with its own mechanics, and a demo is already up on itch.io for anyone who wants to test the movement before backing.
The funding target is $6,000, roughly 940,000 yen, and it has been met. Stretch goals cover additional levels, enemies and bosses, plus translations including Japanese, free expansions, and uncensored custom models.
