What is Moonlight Pulse?

Moonlight Pulse is a single-player 2D action-platformer set inside a giant spacefaring turtle, where a team defends its home from invading parasites. You explore connected organs, unlock abilities, travel through branching blood vessels, and fight multi-stage bosses. If any character falls, the whole team loses, though teammates can rescue one another.
