Moonmoss is a small, cozy-spooky platformer roguelike. You play a tiny witch with a big floppy hat who, with her black cat Pip, fights through a haunted moss garden toward the Hollow Moon.

What's inside

  • Eight rooms per run: mossy gardens, the Moth Market shop, lantern-lit bogs, and the Hollow Moon boss.
  • Six spells, each with its own behavior: exploding embers, piercing thorns, shattering stars, slowing frost and more.
  • Sixteen relics to mix into a build, from double jumps to a dash that burns through foes.
  • Pip the cat follows you everywhere, hops between platforms, picks up coins, and can even learn to pounce.
  • A secret far side of the moon. Gather three petals in a single night, each one at a cost, and the moon cracks open. Something is waiting there.
  • Three endings, five Moon Phases of rising difficulty, ten feats that unlock new spells, relics and outfits, and permanent keepsakes that carry between runs.
