EVIL MOON: Unspoken Steam Demo on October 19

Boomer Shooter Metroidvania! Nun with a gun! Evil Moon: Unspoken is coming to Steam, with a demo in the October Next Fest. Because of the Malediction of the Moon, only devoted sisters with vows of silence can move freely in the city of Abbadox. So take up arms, Siléncia, and blast your way through these cobbled and winding streets!

“Why are there no indie attempts at Metroid Prime?” asks Swedish solo developer Niklas Hallin. “Because it cannot be done! Retro Studios can barely do it with Nintendo money. But, and hear me out here, what if you did it with Boomer Shooter graphics?”

The creator of the Alruna series of highly compact 2D metroidvanias (Alruna and the Necro-Industrialists 2024, Alruna: End of History 2026, Alruna: No Man’s Land TBD) is now bringing that style of irreverent level design into first-person 3D. In Evil Moon: Unspoken, silent nun Siléncia takes up arms to fight through hordes of the Moon’s acolytes, in the city of Abbadox.

Play the demo in Steam’s October Next Fest, 2026. The demo will include the first area of the game, including the blaster pistol, the rosary bead grappling hook and the game’s first boss fight in the cemetery.
