This allows in a mechanic with delightfully long jumps and no fear of "slipping" to death. In addition to the unique gameplay, '6180 the moon' delivers a unique storyline. The Sun has gone. The Moon sets off on a journey to find the Sun. Along the journey will be hazardous courses and deep realizations.  

'6180 the moon' is 2nd. commercial game by Turtle Cream. Their 1st. commercial game was Sweetest Platformer, 'Sugar Cube: Bittersweet Factory' at Steam.
