MOONBORNE

MoonBorne is a configurable survival challenge inspired by the classic Blood Moon concept, but expanded with multiple moon types, custom hordes, special abilities, new items, entities, and a wide variety of gameplay modifiers.

The goal of MoonBorne is to make nights progressively more dangerous—from a manageable increase in difficulty to an extremely brutal survival experience—while giving you control over almost every aspect of the gameplay.

Each special moon brings its own mechanics, challenges, and atmosphere.
