Rabi Ribi is a great game

Ah, yes. A game I wanted to talk about ever since I first played it on livestream as a sub-goal and that video game is Rabi-Ribi. A bullet-hell metrovania platformer. I know a lot, but surprisingly this works out pretty well for this cute 2d game. I am never one to play Bullethell games because they are hard, and they need a good amount of skill and patience to play and enjoy. You may have…

Experience the Thrill of Moon Watch: Bullet-Hell and Deckbuilding Combined

Moon Watch releases its bullet-hell action and deckbuilding strategy on Linux, Mac, and Windows PC. Thanks to the brilliant minds at Jaspel for bringing their creativity to life. Which you can now find on Steam Early Access. Hey, remember Backpack Hero, the game that turned inventory management into a roguelike adventure? Well, the same devs are back at it again for the next 8-10 months, but this time they’ve cooked up something completely fresh. Moon Watch is here, and it’s not just another roguelike — it’s a bold experiment that releases a mix of bullet-hell action and deckbuilding strategy. Oh, and did I mention you get to stop time? Yeah, things just got wild.

Pause the Chaos, Plan the Madness

Moon Watch flips the script on your typical reflex - heavy bullet-hell game releases. Instead of dodging like your life depends on it (even though it totally does), you can hit the brakes on the action. This pause button lets you plan your next moves, turning frantic battles into moments of pure tactical genius. It’s fast when you want it to be, and it’s all brains when you need it.

Moon Watch releases a Reveal Trailer

Vampires on the Moon? Oh, Yeah!

Let’s set the stage. Vampires have taken over, and their fortress isn’t on some creepy hill—it’s on the moon. Earth’s in trouble, and it’s up to you to fight back with one of three iconic characters:

Lucia the Nun: She’s got garlic bombs and holy projectiles to keep her enemies at bay. Simple, reliable, and totally satisfying to play.

Nina the Ninja: If you like to live dangerously, Nina’s your girl. She’s all about close-range chaos, dashing in and cursing enemies to tip the odds. High risk, high reward.

Encio the Engineer: Here’s where things get really intense. Encio releases pinball-style movement, turret setups, and even enemy-charming abilities to the Moon Watch gameplay. Pure chaos, but in the best way.

Build Your Deck, Break the Rules

As you play Moon Watch, you’ll refine your deck with powerful cards, release devastating combos, and uncover rare relics that flip the game on its head. Unlock new characters, experiment with strategies, and take on the Vampire forces in your own style. It’s all about finding the absurd combos that work for you.

Does Moon Watch release a New Genre? You Tell Me.

So, is this bullet-hell action and deckbuilding title carving out a new genre. Or is it just one of those titles that dares to be different? That’s for you to decide. One thing’s for sure, though—it’s breaking all the rules in the best way. Ready to dive in? Moon Watch is out now in Early Access on Steam for Linux, Mac, and Windows PC. Which you can find for $7.49 USD / £6.37 / 7,31€ with the 25% discount. So get in there and see what the hype’s all about.

To be honest. DCxDP where the reason Danny meets the bats is Ace the Bat-hound

Like, just think about it for a second. Danny is in Gotham for college, or maybe he just moved out to find a city where having mad scientist parents isn’t actually that unusual.

He can see ghosts.

The ghosts know this.

Now he’s getting harassed left and right by spirits trying to get closure. Fine, whatever, most of them are a one-and-done type deal, and the amount of ghosts trying to get his help steadily decreases.

Except for this one very stubborn dog.

It just keeps showing up and leading him to crime scenes! He doesn’t know how many “anonymous tips” he can call in to the cops before they trace his phone! And this dog, this incredibly good boy, will not stop trying to help the city. He’s never met anyone with such a strong sense of justice, let alone a dog. Can dogs even have a moral compass?

And so Danny just accepts the fact that Ace isn’t going anywhere and becomes his reluctant sidekick/dedicated medium. He leans into the whole thing, dressing up in a mix of traditional magic-user attire and accessories that pay homage to the ghost dog.

He becomes somewhat well known. The psychopomp detective following around the shadowy figure of a German Shepard? That’s unusual! That’s weird! I mean, it’s not the weirdest thing in Gotham, sure, but he’s a new vigilante and he’s got a ghost dog that people can only see when it’s around him. Someone’s gonna notice.

Damian, as Robin, is the first to reach out to him.

Ace doesn’t know Damian but he does know a Robin, and while this isn’t his Robin, he’s still friendlier than usual. Danny’s panicking because oh god the bats are here and also is this kid gonna steal my ghost dog, Damian is absolutely delighted by Ace, and Ace is just happy to see a Robin again.

Damian decides that the psychopomp isn’t a danger to anyone, and there’s no reason to put this encounter into his reports, really, and perhaps Danny can help with some of his cases in the future.

Danny is sweating bullets because Damian basically tells him that he’ll keep him secret as long as he gets to play with Ace. Ace is happy that he’s finally getting some bat affiliated crime-fighting assistance.

And so, Danny is now both Ace AND Damian’s reluctant assistant. At least whenever he’s in trouble, he can always call a middle schooler to help him.

(Is Robin even in school? He’s out patrolling damn near every night, and he stays out late as hell. Does he have a bedtime? He should.)

Eventually it gets to the point where Damian is going over to Danny’s house. When he first sees it, he has a damn bitch you live like this moment, to which Danny responds that not everyone has the money to afford a nice place. Damian counters that he could at least take the time to clean up, and Danny replies that he’s working, going to school, and being a vigilante assistant to a ghost dog, something’s got to give.

Danny nearly has a heart attack when he checks his bank account the next day and sees that someone transferred him 10,000 dollars.

And so they get into a routine. Danny and Damian fight crime with Ace at night, and occasionally Damian stops by during the day to play with Ace and have Danny help with his homework.

(Damian is smart enough to do it on his own, but some of the instructions are written incredibly confusingly, and he would never admit to needing help to his family. Danny is just glad that the kid is in school and cares about his education, blissfully unaware that he’s basically emotionally adopted him.)

Damian is used to being in Danny’s company.

Eventually, when going over a case with the family, Damian absentmindedly remarks that he’ll have to ask Danny about some of the clues that they might be missing. Nightwing asks who he means and Damian makes a face like he just swallowed a lemon.

Cue shitstorm.

Who is “Danny?” Why is Damian willing to ask for help from anyone, much less someone outside of the family? Does he know who Damian is? Has Damian been compromised? What the hell is going on?

Damian now has to explain that Danny is the psychopomp with the ghost dog who he might have met hunted down while on patrol and conveniently not mentioned, but he’s not a bad person, really, and he lets him play with Ace, and he’s been quite helpful on certain cases due to his ability to talk to ghosts.

Bruce insists that the family meet Danny. Damian, hoping that he won’t just skip town the second he hears the news, relents.

Danny is surprisingly eager to meet the bats, considering his earlier fears.

Damian, blissfully unaware of what’s coming, sets a time and place to meet.

Once everyone is there, he gives Bruce the earful of a lifetime.

Robin is in middle school! Danny knows that there’s no way to stop the boy from going on patrol, but you could at least shift his schedule so he gets enough sleep on school nights! Does the Bat even know where he is half the time?! (No) And why isn’t he comfortable asking his family for help with both cases and homework? Did they ever even notice how much time he was spending at Danny’s house? If Danny was a bad person, he could have seriously hurt the poor boy! Shame on you!

Nightwing is mortified that Damian didn’t trust him enough to tell him about any of this. Red Hood is laughing his ass off, because yeah Danny is making good points but he’s also chewing out the literal Batman. Tim is recording the whole thing. Steph is delighted by the absolute gall of this Danger Twink™️, and already planning to add him to several groupchats. Damian is more embarrassed than he’s ever been in his entire life.

You, he points to Nightwing, did your academic life feel supported when you were a Robin? Nightwing is too stunned to speak. Red Hood, eternal shit-stirrer, says that oh, we all prioritized patrol over our education, that’s just how it is. Red Robin actually dropped out of high school to avoid distractions, did you know that?

Danny honest-to-god shrieks at this.

He finishes his angry rant and leaves, everyone too stunned to stop him.

And as it turns out, Tim wasn’t the only person recording the whole thing.

The entire internet is blowing up with Psychopomp The Danger Twink™️’s rant. People are taking sides. Things are getting messy. Red Hood literally admitting on-camera to previously being a Robin is somehow not the main focus here.

Eventually someone connects some dots from the video, as well as stories circling the internet about the psychopomp. A ghost dog named Ace, who is the literal only reason that the psychopomp is fighting crime at all, which seems incredibly fond of Nightwing and Robin.

A crime-fighting dog who wants constant attention from both the current and original Robin.

Oh my god, Ace the Bat-hound died and became a crime-fighting ghost.

And, somehow, that’s still not the strangest thing going on in Gotham.

Somebody should write one of those goofy self-help manuals that tries to derive a universal life philosophy by overanalysing The Art of War, except instead of The Art of War, it's overanalysing entry-level gameplay advice for bullet hell shooters. I bet you could make "don't aim for where your target is – aim for where it's going to be" and "we're drawn to the focus of our attention; centre your gaze not on the obstacles to your progress, but on the spaces between" sound real deep with the right spin.
