History VideoGame / MetallicChild

* DropTheHammer: One of the weapons Rona can wield in the game is a gigantic mallet.

* GuestFighter: The collaboration event DLC "Of Rice and Cores" features appearances by some of the characters from ''VideoGame/SakunaOfRiceAndRuin''. Downloading the pack allows you to switch out Rona's model for Sakuna's, along with a fox mask-wearing version and a white palette swap. Sakuna's friend Kokorowa is also included, along with changing Pan into Tama cosmetically. Both Sakuna and Kokorowa have their own skills and unique weapons, a major surprise, since Kokorowa in her own series [[TheSmartGuy never did any fighting at all]]. The demon Black Shadow is also featured as a [[BonusBoss new optional Keeper boss]].

However, there's still a chance to save both. You've received a DistressCall from a RobotGirl aboard the Life Stream who is in need of repairs. You help her get back on her feet, but the repair unit can't fix the mechanism that allow her to move under her own power.

So, the both of you decide to team up and put an end to the rebels' destructive plans.

* AIIsACrapshoot: Pratically every single robot onboard the station has gone into a frenzy, with the Metallic Children in charge of leading the rebellion. [[spoiler:They only became like that after Aiden overrode their coding and set them loose to cover his tracks]].

* NeverMyFault: Pretty much the defining characteristic of [[spoiler: Aiden, once he descends into villainy]]. He blames others for apparently looking down on him or not trusting him enough, despite revealing his [[Hypocrite true colors]] as a murderous sociopath, showing that [[spoiler:Irene was correct in not sharing all of her data with Aiden]]. Even [[spoiler:Magna]] is blamed for his defeat, despite being manually piloted by him. Rona lampshades this right after the final battle.

* BigBad: Dr. Irene, Rona's creator and technically her mother, who for some reason started the robot rebellion aboard the Life Stream. [[spoiler: It's actually Dr. Aiden who's responsible]].

* DraconicHumanoid: [[spoiler: Magna]].

* FinalBoss: [[spoiler: Magna, the ultimate Metallic Child]]. However, [[spoiler: given its lack of personality and how it needs a pilot in order to operate]], one could argue that the real final boss is actually [[spoiler: Aiden]].

* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler: Aiden escapes after the final battle, but the game ends with Rona and Pan vowing to find him.]]

* RedHerring: You are rightly led to believe that [[spoiler: Locus is who drove Irene into starting the rebellion]] or that [[spoiler: he's been [[TheManBehindTheMan the one behind everything]] from the start]]. It turns out that [[spoiler: Aiden betrayed them ''both'']].

* VillainExitStageLeft: [[spoiler: Aiden, after the final battle.]]

* RobotHair: Rona has white hair, and some of the other Metallic Children have hair [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair in varying colors.]]

* HealthMeter: Rona's is a red one located in the top-left corner.

* RobotHair: Rona has white hair, and some of the other Metallic Children have hair [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair in varying colours]].

* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:In the ending, Rona and Pan cause Life Stream to self-destruct, with them still inside, in order to stop Aiden's army from reaching Earth. Ultimately subverted when it turns out they survived by hiding in Magne.]]

On board the SpaceStation Life Stream, something has happened.
