I missed this announcment a ways back, as well as the original Kickstarter campaign to get the game funded, but it’d definitely worth a look.
Moonlighter is the tale of an adventurous shopkeeper with heroic aspirations. It all began with an archaeological excavation and the discovery of the Gates. People quickly realized that the ancient passages led to new realms and dimensions, and the small village of Rynoka was founded, providing brave and reckless adventurers with treasures beyond measure.
Moonlighter is the story of Will, a dexterous shopkeeper by day who secretly dreams of becoming a hero while stocking his shelves. By night, Will ventures into the dungeons behind the Gates to vanquish the monsters within and fill his pack with loot.
One part rogue-lite and one part shop management, Moonlighter from 11 bit studios and Digital Sun sends you into the dungeons in search of loot to fill your shelves. But, the shop won’t run itself. Between runs, you’ll need to set prices, craft new wares, hire assistants, and keep sticky-fingered shoplifters at bay.
Moonlighter is coming to PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 on May 29th. No word on if the Nintendo Switch version will also be released on the same day or at a later date.
