Building games that reach for the stars
Moon Ladder is an independent game studio currently developing Thor & Loki: Origins, a co-op tactical RPG about teenage Norse gods trying to save the world.
We also provide technical direction to other game studios and build open-source tools like MoonMind for secure, resilient software. We are always looking for creative collaborators who want to help bring new worlds to life.

Thor & Loki: Origins
Embrace chaos. Stop Ragnarök.
The elder gods have accepted the end of the world. Teenage Thor and Loki have other plans.
Command half the squad in a two-player co-op tactical RPG. Neither player knows the other’s plans or the final turn order. When those plans collide, expect surprise combos and hilarious disasters.
Built on openly licensed Dungeons & Dragons rules, streamlined for easy learning, and expanded with original weapons and subclasses.
- 2-player co-op
- Tactical RPG
- Norse mythology
- Unreal Engine 5

AI cyberattacks have moved beyond human scale
In the July 2026 Hugging Face hack, 700 coordinated AI attackers chained together zero-day exploits to compromise production IT systems. AI is becoming the only reliable defense against AI. We open-sourced MoonMind to improve agentic security, resilience, and observability in cyber defense and software engineering domains.
