Lucky Luna 2022
Lucky Luna is a 2022 platform video game developed by Snowman and published by Netflix through its Netflix Games subscription service. The game stars Luna, a girl wearing a fox mask, who navigates through underground areas linked by portals toward an old temple. Players control Luna's movement left and right on the screen using touch input, avoiding various obstacles and dangers. In contrast to most platformers, Luna does not have the ability to jump, and the levels are designed vertically with Luna falling from above. The story mode includes six handcrafted levels, each themed differently, while the endless mode offers infinite procedurally created versions of these same levels.
Development began in 2014 under the name Cerulean Moon, initiated by Spanish developer Nacho "Nachobeard" Barbas. Originally scheduled for a 2016 release, the project remained unfinished until 2020 when Barbas joined Snowman. Together with the studio, he spent two additional years refining the game and implementing an endless mode. Snowman selected Netflix as publisher to ensure that the game's design would not be influenced by monetization through ads or in-app purchases. Lucky Luna launched for Netflix subscribers on iOS and Android platforms in September 2022. Critics responded positively, commending its visual style, creativity, and original mechanics, though they noted the challenge level as a point of concern.
