## What is Orbit Mission?

Orbit Mission is a bright rocket launch game for curious kids and families. Build a custom rocket, pick a mission, steer through launch hazards, and learn why rockets need thrust, fuel, stability, and sideways speed to reach orbit.

Start with simple launches:

- Reach the cloud layer
- Cross the edge of space
- Build a stable orbit
- Deliver a satellite when the deploy window opens

Every launch is quick, readable, and hands-on. Adjust throttle, guide the steering arc, stage boosters, watch heat and stability, and use Mission Helper when the rocket drifts. After each run, review your path, earn stars, collect mission patches, and see one short science fact.

Choose rocket bodies, nose cones, tanks, engines, fins, boosters, colors, and stickers. Different builds change power, fuel, drag, heat, and control, so kids can experiment without needing a full simulation manual.

Flight Academy turns play into bite-size learning with decks for flight basics, orbit, hazards, mission goals, rocket tradeoffs, and a space glossary. Junior controls keep launching simple, while Explorer Controls add more challenge for older players.

Designed for offline family play:

- No third-party ads
- No third-party analytics
- No accounts, chat, or social sharing
- Progress and settings saved on device
- Separate toggles for music, sound effects, haptics, and quiet mode

Build, launch, recover, and learn how orbit works one mission at a time.
