On a Moon transformed by Blackstone, a substance that can empower souls and machinery, you choose a character and venture into a changing lunar world. The setting centers on humanity’s new home and the creation of life in mechanical bodies.
Each run combines action combat with weapons, equipment, and skills that shape your build. Levels include enemy encounters and other challenges, while upgrades, equipment merging, and character abilities offer ways to develop your approach and take on bosses.
Between runs, develop a lunar base by placing and decorating furniture and buildings. You can also meet and befriend NPCs, take on side activities, farm, and fish; base improvements can provide benefits for future outings.
Players who enjoy Lunavania often praise its pixel art, character designs, action combat, and the satisfaction of discovering effective weapon-and-skill combinations. Some also like developing the home base and its benefits between runs. Reactions to major gameplay and control changes are mixed, with recurring complaints about controller aiming, altered room challenges, lost saves, and unclear item or system explanations.
Civilization entered an age of rapid technological advancement, but Earth's resources were depleting at an alarming rate. In a desperate effort to secure humanity's future, pioneers were sent to the Moon, where they uncovered a miraculous substance known as Blackstone—a limitless energy source capable of renewing other resources. There was just one problem: Blackstone became inert the moment it left the Moon. To harness its power, pioneers established a space station on the lunar surface, beginning extensive research into what would become known as "Blackstone technology."
The Moon soon transformed into a new haven, a sort of Noah's Ark for humanity, as people began migrating there in search of a fresh start. This discovery ignited a renewed sense of hope for the survival of mankind and the quest for a new home. As research into Blackstone deepened, humanity uncovered a second, hidden potential within the material: the ability to empower human souls. Blackstone could manifest the strength of belief and even grant machinery life. Thus, the "New Moon Project" was launched in secrecy. Through advanced experimentation, scientists succeeded in extracting human souls and infusing them into mechanical bodies using Blackstone as a conduit. A new form of life had been born.
