They'll Come from the Moon!
A downloadable game for Windows
A call-and-response rhythm game like Space Channel 5 or PaRappa the Rapper, but with zombies!
Start off with the Narrator's tale about a boy who hears a mysterious warning about the moon. Then play rhythm gameplay to guide new heroes Zoe and Dennis against a zombie invasion. Can you help them save the day?
This game is a Rhythm Short, kind of like an animated short. It's brief, but big on polish, fun, and replay value! If you're a rhythm game fan, I bet you'll love it!

how to unlock endless mode?
if i buy this on pc, will i again have to buy it on ios?
Hello! That's correct, if you want it on both platforms you'd have to buy it on both. Unfortunately, I don't have any way to link purchases across platforms.
That said, if you end up buying on either (or both), I hope you enjoy it! Cheers!
