KILL THE MOON

In honor of the moon blocking the sun today. Games where you fight the moon or the moon is a major antagonist. I might also contain games where you don't kill the moon as honorable mentions if I think of any (like games where the moon is a playable character or ally etc). Possible spoilers so proceed with caution.

@theia Ahhh thank you so much how could I forget those!
For the final level of Katamari Damacy (Spoilers) you roll up a ball to make the moon. And for the final level of We Love Katamari (Also Spoilers) you roll up every celestial body in the solar system, one of which is the moon.

In the final sequence of Mario Odyssey, you smash your way through the moon's core until you explode out of it

I'm not sure if you'd count this but a boss in Kirby's Adventure (Mr. Shine and Mr. Bright) is you fighting a cartoony moon & sun duo, but they're not the real moon and sun (you actually destroy quite a fair bit of the former in the same game, but that's more incidental than purposeful)

(Okami spoilers)

While he's not quite the moon god, in Okami's finale the arrival of the final boss Yami is heralded by the moon turning blood red and creating a total solar eclipse to deprive you (the sun goddess Amaterasu) of your powers, and that eclipse ends when you destroy it.

Final boss of Bloodstained Curse of the Moon channels the moon. The sequel makes things a lot more direct. Spoilers for its ending.
