About this game

The Two Moons: The RPG that's so bad, the Main Character wants nothing to do with it!

The Two Moons is a self-aware Comedy RPG parodying bad RPG Maker games and "Game Designs I Made as a Kid," the viral RPG Maker series of reels seen on social media.

Filled with inside jokes, 4th-wall fouls, meta-humor, boring maps, stock graphics, assets recycled from other projects, and one meticulously placed teleporting chicken, The Two Moons follows Benjamin, a Main Character who knows he's in a crappy RPG Maker game and DOES NOT want to play.

Unfortunately, after a series of Yes/No choices where No isn't a real option, Benjamin reluctantly "agrees" to be the Main Character.

He immediately regrets it.

Along the way, Benjamin is joined by Anthony, his best friend who somehow has the strategy guide for the game they're characters in, and Carol, the not-so-secret game developer self-inserted into the story. Together, they must try to pry the secret to stopping the moons from hitting the tower out of their most unreliable source: Matthias, the narcoleptic old man who lives in a tiny shack in MENria.

What starts as a painfully generic fetch quest to save the world quickly becomes something much stranger. As Benjamin and his friends dig deeper into the game, the line between the story, the characters, and the people behind the game starts to blur. Nothing goes according to plan, things get increasingly ridiculous, and chaos ensues.
