Night Machine

About This Game

Your ship might be held together with duct tape and optimism, and the mission is probably a one-way trip... But someone's got to do it!

Deckbuilding in Real-Time

Night Machine is a roguelike deckbuilder where the action never stops. There are no turns. You're piloting a ship through hostile lunar tunnels, playing cards to fire weapons, raise shields, and keep your hull intact, all while threats pile up on your radar.

Build your deck between encounters. Use it to survive them.

Push Your Luck

Patch Cards let you modify card effects mid-run. Roll the dice on standard card stats to create high-risk, high-reward variations. Chance a system overload for a massive damage boost. Gamble on unstable modifications for game-changing effects.

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.

Your Ship, Your Story

Pick from multiple ships, each with different base stats and starting decks. Upgrade your reactor, armor, and weapons as you go. Visit merchants. Make hard choices about what to take and what to sell.
