Trivia
Development
Iron First is unfinished. The game mentions that you gather coins to spend in a store but there is no store. There are only six levels. Two things caused
Jake Birkett to abandon the game:
1.) He had been working about a year, late night, on the game while still making business software during the day. He was ready to crash and burn.
2.) There was no easy way to sell the game. There was no Xbox LIVE!, Playstation Network, WiiWare, Steam, iPhone, etc. at that time. Having played the game
Bejeweled and other casual games, he decided that was the way to go if he wanted to make games full time.
