Description

Funomena's award-winning Luna is now on itch.io

Overview

A Bird's peaceful summer slumber is disturbed by the majestic call of a mysterious Owl. Enticed to swallow the last piece of the waning Moon, Bird is blown far from its Golden Gate home.

Re-awaken shadowy forests and bring life back to sparkling lakes. Discover hidden creatures, help Bird reunite the fragmented Moon... and find its way home.

  • Solve celestial puzzles to unlock each level's tree, plants and animal spirits.
  • Place, customize and interact with them in miniature, musical terrariums.
  • Bring each world to life, revealing Austin Wintory’s haunting, enchanting score.

Brought to you by Funomena’s uniquely diverse team of veteran developers (Journey, Flower, Boom Blox, The Sims 2), Luna is an interactive fable about learning by the light of unexpected mistakes.


Luna started off in partnership with Intel and their RealSense Camera technology, but as the project evolved, and hand-tracked VR controllers began to emerge, we partnered with Oculus to bring the game to the Touch. The non-VR PC version was released shortly after the original launch date. The storybook edition later updated the core game with a voice over narrative & localized subtitles to further elucidate Luna's heartfelt story. 

You can find out more about how the idea for Luna came to be through these tweets by Robin Hunicke. Luna is a very personal game for Robin, and we hope it'll touch you like it has already touched others across the world.

Reviews

“Without so much as a single word, Luna traps us within its narrative fantasy, quickly switching its focus to puzzles so we discover the truth in metered, literary chunks.” Gameranx

“This process is truly special and unique because the more time you take with it, the more beautiful and rewarding the world will look...” 8.6 – The Nerd Mag
