Moonfall Ultimate

Moonfall Ultimate is an expanded version of Moonfall released in 2017. This side-scrolling action RPG, enriched with elements of Metroidvania, was developed by an independent team at Fishcow Studio and published by Wales Interactive.

Plot

Moonfall Ultimate takes us to an industrial-gothic world, to the Empire, which owes its power to the element called the Lunarium. It is the element that draws in Savages, who attacked the land. Our task is to repel the invasion before the Empire falls under its pressure.

Mechanics

Before playing Moonfall Ultimate we choose a representative of one of three character classes (their list consists of Vanguard, Elementalist and Shadow), each of which has unique active and passive abilities. The game world consists of thirteen different levels, where we perform tasks find notes to broaden our knowledge of the universe and battle enemies. The clashes take place in real-time, and victory can be achieved with quick reflexes, as well as a careful observation of the movements of the opponents, evasion and swift counter-attacks.

As we progress, we increase the combat potential of our hero by providing them with new equipment (we can choose from eighty items such as swords, axes, daggers, armor, helmets, shoes and rings) and by collecting experience points and leveling up. This is important because in order to gain access to some places, we first need to unlock a specific skill or acquire a specific item.

Game modes

In addition to the story mode, Moonfall Ultimate has a co-op module for playing on split-screen, as well as an infinite Arcade mode, where we try to stay alive for as long as possible.

Technical aspects

Like the original, Moonfall Ultimate features 2.5D hand-painted graphics; the whole thing features dark atmosphere, which is achieved mainly through subdued colors and gloomy location design.
