What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to make the best game that we can! And capturing the intensity of survivors-like action mixed with the depth of turn-based deckbuilding takes a lot of balancing. We hope to attract new players, get your feedback, and adjust the game to your wants!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“8-10 months”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to prioritize balance, fun, and replayability guided by your feedback. Some things may be added, reworked, or even cut – but you can expect:
More cards, abilities, and relics for each character
More stages and level variety
New enemies
Expanded meta-progression “tech tree” with new challenges and unlocks
Many improvements to balance and polish!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Very advanced! Each run is already complete with a beginning, middle, and end. We’ve seen the Demo played for over 10-20 hours, and Early Access comes with two new characters, a third act, and more content. Here’s the content we have now:

3 unique characters
3 full acts, over 50 stages that are randomly selected
3 main bosses
3 main game modes: Classic, Horde, and Wave
23 enemies and mini-bosses with unique abilities
80 cards
43 relics
Challenge Runs – special starting decks and rulesets
Infinite Loop Mode – beat Classic, and keep your build growing with increasing difficulty
Meta Progression – complete achievements to unlock new content including new characters, new cards for each character, new relics, and endless mode rooms”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price may increase over time during and after Early Access”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We already have a large community on our Discord, and you can help us test new updates! We will be using analytics and your feedback to balance the game properly!”

“I only really want to play a game in this genre if it's doing something new... this seems to be doing something new!”

“The Backpack Hero devs have just dropped another banger.”

About This Game

Lucia checks her pocket watch. The thing is fueled by a mix of high-tech nonsense and Vampire blood.

As her ship rounds the moon, the Vampires' space-fortress comes into view…

Bullet Hell Deckbuilder

Moon Watch mixes deckbuilding strategy and bullet hell action, where time itself becomes your weapon!

  • Control the flow of time to think strategically and weave impossible odds in your favor.

  • Complete challenges to unlock new cards and characters with unique attacks and abilities.

  • Refine your deck to build devastating combos.

  • Discover rare relics that completely change your run.

  • Hunt the darkest threat the world, and the moon, has ever known.

Wield Three Unique Characters

Unlock their specialized playstyles, decks, and powerful relics!

  • Lucia the Nun

Your go-to starter character! She uses garlic to control space and projectiles to attack enemies. Straightforward and dependable.

  • Nina the Ninja

A melee queen! Nina thrives in close combat with dashes to evade enemies and powerful sword slashes. She also has a “curse” ability to weaken foes, making her a great pick for those who love risk and reward.

  • Encio the Engineer

A creative powerhouse! Encio uses pinball ability to move around the level, relies on electricity and turrets as offense. Also has a “charm” ability that he can use to turn enemies against each other.

This is it.

Our chance to strike back at the Vampire Lords who haunt our planet from above!
