Description
About This Game
Your ship might be held together with duct tape and optimism...
And the mission is probably (actually, kinda likely) a one-way trip. But someone's got to do it!
A Real-Time Deckbuilder
Night Machine is a roguelike deckbuilder…but in real-time! There are no turns. You're piloting a ship through a maze of hostile lunar tunnels, playing cards to fire weapons, raise shields, and keep your hull intact.
Build your deck between encounters, and play your best combos right before time runs out!
Choose Wisely
Expand your deck with new cards between encounters and focus on dealing damage, or make yourself into an unkillable tank, it’s up to you. Powerful Patch Cards can hack other cards, turning everything on its head: multiply effects, boost your boosters or drive your reactor into a frenzy.
The Moon Awakens
For eons, something has been sleeping inside the moon. Now it's waking up: A factory, alien and vast, spinning up to destroy life as we know it. You're piloting humanity's last-ditch attempt to reach the core and shut it down.
