Blood Moon: The Last Stand is a wave-based clicker shooter where you defend against escalating enemy hordes with a gunblade that switches between melee slashes and ranged shots. The difficulty ramps sharply, rewarding quick reflexes and sustained clicking as enemies grow deadlier. It's a lean arcade experience ideal for players seeking punishing, skill-based combat in short bursts.

Crim's Humble Opinion Curator

This is a simple but difficult hybrid clicker / wave fighter game. What you see on the store page is essentially what you get. You can move left and right and you click to attack your opponents. If they are within melee range you will attack them with a slash, otherwise you will shoot them. You don't have to worry about reloading, but you do have to decide who to attack first and which direction to be facing; because you can only attack in the direction you are facing. You have three hits and have a special bar that goes up as you defeat enemies. With that special bar you can choose to heal one health or do massive damage on one enemy. Enemies will come at you from multiple directions and sometimes you have to throw up a shield to avoid damage from a projectile.

There are two modes to play that are both unlocked at start. The story mode is comprised of 4 areas with 30 levels in total. There is a pretty large variety of enemies that you run into and bosses at the end of each area. Once clearing the story there isn't really much replay value to it, so you can dive into the endless mode. This is pretty much what you think it is. Fight against increasingly harder enemies for as long as you can.

This feels a bit like it could be a web game or something but it's still got some nice gameplay. The music can get a bit repetitive. The background and environment is usually pretty similar with a few minor changes. It would be nice to have some powerups drop from enemies adding a little bit more variety, but it would probably make the game significantly easier. It's nicer to have the clicker game require more than just mindlessly clicking. You have to worry about which direction you are facing and when you try to turn. If you don't time it correctly you won't turn fully when you go to turn because you were hit in the process. One of the biggest issues I had while playing this game isn't really anything major, but it took quite a while to start up. It's a lot like loading up Killing Floor 2 for me. I just have to get up and walk away and hope it doesn't crash while trying to launch.

Pros


+Variety of enemies
+Brings a bit more strategy to clicker genre

Mix?


~Powerups and unlockables may give it an extra edge on variety of gameplay
~Feels like a web game

Cons


-Long startup time

Despite the fact this feels like a web game, it's still a pretty decent clicker game. Expect to have some carpal tunnel from moving and clicking the mouse consistently. For the amount of levels you will try to go through and the variety of enemies to face; five dollars is a pretty fair asking point. If you can snag it during a sale it will be worth the short burst play sessions you will get out of it.

Braw li'l indie arcade style clicker game with sexy, stylised 2D visuals.

Harder than industrial standard nails and playing for more than twenty minutes at a time WILL cause RSI, just so you know. But oh what fun.

Would for sure like to see more from this developer team, they did a decent job with this.

Hello everyone, We have released a demo for the game!

Game Update: New Mode + New Pricing

2981 days ago
Hello everyone, We listened to your feedback and decided for this update to adjust the price of the game, it is now $4.99. Also, another complaint was the little replayability so we added a new mode, called Endless Mode. This mode has a more arcade and dynamic feeling than the main mode, and features new art, a new main character and new mechanics. In this mode, the objective is to survive as long as possible and kill as many enemies as possible as well. So, share your records with us! The game will be discounted a 20% for a few weeks too! Pura vida, Team Gizmoid.
