For too long Skeletons have been on the blunt force receiving end. Give them a break and time to recover by embracing the power of the darkness.
Night of the Blood Moon is a difficult Rogue-lite with unique weapons, and charming manifestations. Become the Nightmare and grow your power, by conquering many imaginative lands, and defeat bosses who will challenge your strategy along side your skill.
The Setting of Night of the Blood Moon
The eclipse is coming, and the blood moon is upon us. It is time for the Three Eyed Raven to rise. From Bedrooms to Castles in the Sky you will control a nightmare and it's arsenal of pets, weapons, and skills. In thde land of dreams creatures take on many forms such as; of instruments, wizards, ninjas, and sea monsters, and more.
Weapons
Night of the Blood Moon's weapons are more than guns with different attributes. They will completely change the way you play the game, by how you position yourself, and which enemies pose the most threat. Hookshots, Boomerangs, and Spellbooks are the beginning of a growing inventory. Learn to utilize each weapon to reach the true-end.
The Dreamy Manifestations
Enemies in Night of the Blood Moon work on an orthogonal structure. They vary with speed and range on a full spectrum. Each level in the game has unique creatures which test you in their own ways. Things aren't always as they seem in our dreams, especially these critters.Bosses in Night of the Blood Moon are more than just bullet sponges; Each boss has mechanics which can be overcome through trial & error, and understanding.
Pets
You'll come across assistance in your escapades. These pets will give you increased attributes as well as passive support. Pets are dreams consumed by the darkness including bats, dogs, nests, and more.Dev Note: I plan on adding at least one pet each month of 2019 for Night of the Blood Moon, and am looking forward to getting more creative with more time on my hands.
Eclipse Mode
This mode lets you start with nothing, and get stronger until you the engine can't keep up. There are currently no limitations.Buy health, ammo, and unleash a flurry of weapons. Eclipse Mode is my way of letting you destroy the game I worked so hard to build whilst having absolute fun.
For Non-Ubuntu Linux users: GameMaker (the engine used) only supports 32-bit graphics for some reason (which Ubuntu supports out of box). From what I've come to understand here are the required fixes:
install lib32-openssl or openssl:i386 (depend of your system), and Properties -> Set launch options and LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. %command%
Night of the Blood Moon is a game I am incredibly proud of, and excited to share with everyone. Above all I hope you are challenged in a fun and enjoyable way. I'm looking forward to seeing you kick Night of the Blood Moon's butt. Good luck, and have fun.

great game but super annoying
I have only ever had some problems picking up power-ups but other than that the game runs smoothly for me. Also despite looking easy this game is deceptively challenging. Overall this is a fun game and is definitely worth the price and can also help you improve at other easy bullet hell's.
fun but challenging short rounds of running around killing things to get powerups and upgrades and i don't really even know what the story was supposed to be about because it's frantic fast paced fun :] a little excitement when you're bored and don't want to spend a lot of time playing
10/10 would recommend worth 5 dollars very fun and yes idk how to write a review
holy shit this game is a rolercoster throwing you this way and that combowing upgrads and killing stuff also i die like evry 5 mileseconds good game it deservs so much moor
is good like gungeon except fever dream
Please note development for this game has been abandoned.
Despite the "still in development" parts that appear on the store page and inside the game, updates are most likely not to be expected. Hence, the game is, in practice, in its final stage of development.
With that out of the way, let's move on to the review.
NotBM has a great artistic direction. The soundtrack is cool and catchy, and the visuals are quite awesome. You play as a "nightmare creature" that apparently has to rampage its way through several layers of dreams, which are filled with cartoony creatures and have a sort of naive cuteness to them that echoes a child's imagination. It was gorgeous and I loved it.
Now gameplay-wise, it's a classic top-down shooter. Despite the lack of a tutorial, the controls and experience system are pretty easy to get a hang of, and it works just fine. There's a respectable variety of enemies with creative patterns, and a few different weapons you can try out.
Interestingly, this game relies a lot more than usual on melee attacks, as you've got a melee option no matter what ranged weapon you choose at the start of the run, and you're bound to use it a lot, as ammunition is very limited and repletes only when you kill stuff. I think that was great idea, as I've always felt great hammering my way through with a bat in EtG or a sledgehammer in Nuclear Throne. :D
Also, unlike most games of this type, you don't get to unlock and switch from a ton of different weapons and powerups throughout the course of a run, though, and there's only one boss, and 2(ish) midbosses, which systematically appear in the same order, so it can get repetitive pretty quickly. Especially as the game is quite forgiving when it comes to HP drop rates, and a full run must take something like 20 minutes.
However, by the end of the run, you can choose to loop back to the first world with a random curse, and do that indefinitely until you eventually lose, which can make the game significantly harder, and gives it a scoring point for people who like competing for the leaderboards.
It's unfortunate that the game doesn't have more content, as it's really fun as it is already, but hey. People have to keep paying their bills. If you ask me, it's very cheap and worth the price.
It is a nice looking game, and the controls are not bad, but it seems to be abandonware. The upgrade window between levels says "in development" all of the leaderboard features say "coming soon" and even the wiki button in main menu takes you to 404 page. I probably wouldn't pay the full price even though it is cheap, unless you have beaten all the other similar games already.
its quite a decent game we got here, tho sadly it seems like its updates has halted. if this got more updates, content, bug fixes etc. it would be worth the buy. but since it seems like its been dropped, i wouldn't waste money here, even if it is just a 3.99 euro price tag
7,5/10
While you can pass this off as another rogue-lite and whatever, this game put together well done and it shouldn't be looked over. It was done by 1 man my dudes. IF anything, you should play it to support a local creator. And if anything, there is a speedrun.com category for this game now: https://www.speedrun.com/night_of_the_blood_moon
SUPPORT LOCAL CREATORS!!
OVERALL: Great little shooter with hints of Nuclear Throne.
Pros:
1) Nice graphics
2) Tight controls
3) Enjoyable challenging gameplay (might be too difficult for some though)
4) Cool rogue-lite upgrade system
Cons:
1) Some weapons feel a little under powered
2) Could do with a bit more music
I got the game on the Halloween sale for 79 cents, and since it was sitting in my wishlist for a while i thought i'd finally buy it. Absolutely not disappointed. The design and graphics are simple but really good, the gameplay is smooth, controls are easy to get used to, the game provides a fair difficulty and my god, the music. I personally put a lot of value in a good soundtrack and notBM did anything but let me down on that one. Real banger. Bit disappointed the soundtrack from the trailer isnt in, or i missed it, though i've finished the game before, but either way the game is definitely worth it and fully recommend buying it.
This game is very good and I would definitely recommend to anyone that likes rogue-lites.
I think that "rogue-lite" is really starting to be overused. This is a decent game, I guess, but I just didn't find it to have much depth. Just having procgen layouts of levels isn't enough for me. The art style is cool, but I felt like it was just a twin-stick shooter with an upgrade system, and I felt like I had seen everything the game was going to offer after about 20 minutes.
It most reminded me of the kind of flash games I used to play on Kongregate. Decent enough, but not something I would buy again.
Fun little Game.
Not really anyting bad about it.
The controls are responsive, the artstyle is nice, the enemies are creative and otherwise it is a rocksolid game.
Really good game for a quick round.
A fun indie roguelike with a slick art style, all made by a single guy.
It's still a little rough around the edges, but features and content are still being added, and the dev is easy to contact via Discord.
A great solo Dev title that, while definitely rough around the edges, shows a lot of promise and is a great example of what more can be innovated in the more traditional rogue like space. If you are a fan of difficult but condensed rogue games like Monolith, Wizard of Legend, or Nuclear Throne then you'll find something here you like.
A fun rouge-lite with lots of potential. I will be playing more and I look forward to seeing where the developer takes the game.
It's great!
The sprites and animations are very beautiful and clean
Every enemy and it's variations are very easy to identify
Every weapon changes completely how you play and is great for replayability
Absolutely love the music
Controls for mouse and keyboard are very intuitive and solid (Have yet to try it with a controller)
Can't wait for it to have a fully functional stats and leaderboard system

Review:
Tight twinstick frenetic action roguelite that reminds me of games like Enter the Gungeon and Binding of Isaac. Easily recommended!
This game has solid and precise mouse/keyboard controls, a catchy soundtrack, uniformly beautiful pixel art and animation, and most of all, a fun game loop.
You're basically a psychotic road runner that invades dreams and beats up cute and adorable stuff, which you accomplish with your fists or with one of a few different ranged weapons including a boomerang, crossbow, hookshot, magical orb, and more.
You amass feathers (your currency) which allows you to permanently unlock each ranged weapon. If you die, you have to start all over and try again. It has the right amount of punishment as your skill grows and clearing stages will seem easier over time.
Between levels, you are also able to select from randomized perks that will assist each run. This can include stuff like a bigger health bar, faster movement speed, and longer dashing.
There is a pretty varied amount of stages as well, ranging from kid bedrooms, to gardens, to candyland-esque landscapes, to a winter wonderland, and more.
I'm really digging it! It's got the right amount of fun, challenge, and progression. Definitely recommended.
This is a neat roguelite, feels pretty similar to Nuclear Throne ( albeit, in 60 fps, and in 16:9 )
you control a single character, mainly using a melee weapon, and one other weapon you choose at the start of your run.
you earn currency to unlockmore weps, and in the runs themselves, you earn skill points; which can be used to upgrade your secondary weapon, and add skills ( which are randomized every run )
I like the look, the pixel work is pretty cute~
*EDIT * Game was KB+M only, dev added controller support very quickly ^^b
being in early access , you can expect the game to improve - and it's already pretty charming and fun as-is.
worth a poke if you're into nuclear throne style games ~
