KnightFight Closed Beta Aug. 12, 2019

Here we go: the new KF Backend needs testers. The game looks as well known and should play itself optimally also in such a way. Only the technology, hosting and tools in the background are still hot from the smithy and have to be put through their paces by experienced knights. If you are interested, please contact PM:

summer promotion Aug. 2, 2019

from the 1st of August 22:00 to 22nd of August 22:00. The summer promotion offers a 50% higher credit when buying a premium package: take me to premium.


Information about the summer promotion:

- The premium promotion applies to all packages (moonCOINS, gemstone, blood drop packages, etc.) purchased during the promotion period.



- We do not subsequently recognise any packages as "summer promotion packages". The payment AND credit must be completed by 22.08.2019 at 22.00 o'clock. In this context we would like to point out that the crediting of bank transfers from abroad can take several days. Even in the event of a delayed credit note, we cannot carry out any subsequent promotion credit notes.



Have fun playing,
Your RedMoon Studios Team

Information about the applied bugfixes June 18, 2019

Hello again,

To follow up with our last announcement, the update we've been rolling out has been to address a few important issues that would make it easy for attackers to crash our servers or cause significant lag.

The reason we didn't go into more detail earlier was to prevent creative minds out there to use it against us before we are able to fully patch our infrastructure.

Our first mitigation, hours before our scheduled downtime, was to simply disable TCP selective acknowledgment, which is there to reduce bandwidth usage in case a packet got lost and has to be retransmitted. This typically is only relevant if you're experiencing an unstable connection, eg. due to networking issues. Temporarily disabling this avoids being susceptible to trivial server crashes by an attacker.

Additionally, we've rolled out bugfixes for a few related issues, which would allow attackers to significantly slow down our services with minimal to moderate effort.

If you want to know the full technical details, you can read up on it here:

Thanks for your patience and if you followed our recommendation at the end of the last post: Enjoy your coffee/tea :-)

Important bugfixes being applied tonight at 3 AM German time June 17, 2019

Hi everybody and apologies up-front,

We need to patch up our infrastructure to mitigate a few security-related bugs that came to our attention, which we'll announce in detail in a follow-up post afterwards. The downtime will be around 5 minutes and it will take place on Jun 18 at 03:00 AM German time. This will impact all of our servers, so be sure to take a short coffe (or tea) break :-)

Best regards
Your moonID team
