Lifeless Moon, touted as the spiritual successor to the 2014 indie game Lifeless Planet, has announced its release date: August 10, 2023. This 3D platformer offers a distinctive adventure inspired by traditional science fiction narratives.

In Lifeless Moon, players will step into the boots of an Apollo-era astronaut, unraveling the aftermath of a peculiar 1970s experiment. This journey leads them to a rather unexpected setting – a desert town eerily reminiscent of Earth, located on the moon.

The game will challenge players to explore anomalies in the barren lunar city, whose secrets, once unlocked, promise to reveal enigmas on a larger scale. To traverse these surreal landscapes, players will be equipped with a jetpack, relying on their survival instincts to unearth the truth.

Document collection is another critical aspect of Lifeless Moon’s gameplay. Players will need to exercise both perseverance and wit to solve this lunar mystery. By recording their thoughts and discovering clues from the past, players can slowly peel back the layers of this moon’s dark secrets.

Lifeless Moon will also feature intricate puzzles and peculiar technology as integral parts of its gameplay. Players will be encouraged to utilize the available technology to their advantage, using it to navigate through obstacles and chart a path forward.

The central premise of Lifeless Moon is the unveiling of a mystery rooted in a place where objects seemingly manifest from nowhere and time flows in unpredictable ways. Players will delve into the experiences and traumas of the scientists who preceded them. In following their footsteps, they might find the path that leads back home.

Lifeless Moon can be wishlisted on Steam.
