Orbite
Orbite
One probe. No engine. A single launch.
Orbite is gravity golf: pull the probe back like a slingshot, let go, and that's it — no more thrust is yours to give. Only the pull of the worlds can still bend the flight toward the station's green ring. Grazing a planet curves the path far better than raw power — that's the whole game.
How it plays
- Aim for the gaps between the worlds, not the worlds themselves.
- Collect up to three shards per sector by bending your route toward them.
- Avoid planets, singularities (which swallow everything), and repulsors (which push back).
- An onboard computer plots the trajectory a few seconds ahead — its range shrinks as sectors grow more crowded.
Progression
Sectors are procedurally generated and grow denser with obstacles as you advance. Scoring rewards docking, shards collected, and shots under par; a gentle docking earns a bonus. The atlas tracks your best score for every sector you've surveyed.
Nothing to install
A single file, no external fonts or libraries, no network calls. The game speaks French or English depending on your browser's language. Progress saves automatically on your device.
