Dark Moon is a survival strategy game where in order to survive you must avoid the Sun’s scorching rays and embrace the darkness. Gather resources, upgrade your mobile base, make tough moral decisions, but most importantly - don’t go into the light!

Hello everyone! Long time no see. We know you have been waiting for some updates on DARK MOON and finally we have something new to share with you guys - so welcome to the third Developer Blog!
The recent months have been very busy for us, we were focused on completing our other projects, including Realpolitiks 2, but we also gave a helping hand to our friends at Strategy Forge who work on the turn-based strategy game PUNK WARS. On the background there was still work connected to DARK MOON going on, but from now on we are happy to share that the game is once again in full development and our top priority project!
That's why in the upcoming weeks and months we will have a lot to share with you and we would like to give you a sneak peek at what we are currently working on.

One of the biggest challenges are the iconic spiders. These are your mobile bases that travel with you across the Moon, as you try to avoid the devastating light of the Sun. In the game there are many spots where you can deploy your base and start constructing new buildings on your mobile platform, but the terrain on the Moon is harsh, with many rocks, craters and other debris - including constructions destroyed by the disaster. And the spiders need to find their way through these obstacles.

Currently we are working on how the spiders react to the shape of terrain or when they discover an obstruction on their way. As you can see from the clip above each leg of the spider is able to find the right spot or position to keep the whole platform steady and secure. This also gives us the opportunity to feature really diversified locations, so you should have fun in discovering what lies in the darkness...
Of course it is really tough to survive in such conditions, especially during a cosmic disaster. That's why you can build your own crew, consisting of international astronauts or experts in their field. Will they help you or stick a knife in your back remains to be seen, but meanwhile you can take a look at one of the characters we are currently designing:
