"The San Francisco-based (the US) indie games publisher Humble Games and Moldova-based indie games developer Black Mermaid, are today very happy and excited to announce that their challenging 2D platform slasher "Moonscars" is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
From PSU: "One of the best examples of the Soulslike formula to appear in quite some time, it’s certainly fair to say that I fell in love with the boundless, grim charm of Moonscars when it arrived back in September 2022. With Moonscars proudly wearing a range of notable influences on its digital sleeve, I sat down with Alexandru Romanciuc (Lead Programmer), Ștefan Semionov – (Art Director) and Andriy Moroz (Game Designer) from developer Black Mermaid to unearth the source of those influences and what might be next for the talented studio."
Moonscars is a great game, but your enjoyment will come down to how much patience you have for its style of difficulty.
Darren writes: "Moonscars may look grim, but there’s little horror in allowing your morbid curiosity to get the better of you here."

I'm looking forward to playing this game!
Don't like the idea of the whole game having grey monotone backgrounds, it's boring. Game looks decent.
Reminds me of blasphemous.
The animation is very nice.
