WHAT THE CRITICS SAY

«ORBITAL is a game of skill, it's a game of strategy, it's a game of reflexes, and it's a game you will keep front and center of your iPhone for weeks on end.»
- John Bardinelli (jayisgames.com)

«A picnic to understand, but a marathon to get beyond the first few minutes, Orbital's simple style is perfect for those looking for fill the odd spare moment.» 8/10
- Keith Andrew (pocketgamer.co.uk)

«Orbital is the most visually appealing brick breaker type game that I have ever laid eyes on and had the chance to play.» 5/5
- Mike (iphoneincanada.ca)

«While there are already a few iPhone games that share the same gameplay mechanics as Orbital, none of them look anywhere near as cool.»
- Eli Hodapp (toucharcade.com)

«BitForge has managed to combine the addictive gameplay of Peggle and the beauty of Geometry Wars, two digital forms of crack, into one easy to use package.»
- Chad George (thatvideogameblog.com)

«Orbital takes simple gameplay and dresses it up with a unique “gravity” feature and enhanced graphics. The game can be very frustrating at times, but that won’t keep you from coming back for another try.» 4/5
- Will Raskin (148apps.com)

«Orbital has got fantastic graphics and unfussy features. Come to think of it, there are really no negative points about the game. Good going, Bitforge!» 5/5
- Yoyo (iphonefootprint.com)

GAMEPLAY

You must shoot orbs into a grid with your cannon. The orb you fired will expand until it touches a wall or another orb. Each orb contains the number ‘3’, which decreases by one every time it is hit. After 3 hits they explode and you earn a point. The game could be endless… There is just one condition: a shot orb must not touch the death line above the cannon! If it does, the game is over.

A simple concept to rack your brains and nerves.

Great but aggravating

Fun and challenging game. I play on an iPod Touch and if there is no connection to the server and I exit the game, it forgets my high scores. I have lost several Top 5 scores this way. Argh. Fix the scoreboard server already!

Timeless

I've had this app on my phone since it was released I still go back to it what a wonderful game that deserves more recognition than it has gotten. Thanks for continuing to support this game.

Unexpectedly amazing

And two player on same device is a lot of fun! Update: couldn't ask for anything more than an update to Orbital's graphics for new high-end devices--and you gave it to me! THANK YOU!

I've been playing this game for hours, it's very tranquil and different every time depending on what you do. Update: had to take away two stars for lack of iPhone 5 screen support. Common, guys!
