Become a spaceship pilot and defend orbit. Orbital Invaders is a Sci-Fi arcade action game where the skill to react the situation and predict attack of enemies determine the outcome of battles. Shoot them all. Unique enemies, asteroid, spaceships, mines, missiles, space worms and bosses. In this Shoot 'em up game you will fly around different planets, defend orbit, destroy asteroids, spaceships, bosses and other enemies. Winning for someone who won 't miss a single goal. Upgrade weapons, use bombs and booster in critical situations. Save the planet! Save the orbit! Fantastic and amazing spaceship simulator. New shoot 'em up game! The control is tied to two sticks (virtual gamepad): one controlling the movement of the spaceship, the other changing the direction of fire. There are three lives in reserve, weapons like laser or plasma, three atomic bombs and acceleration for emergency cases. Collect points and get extra life. There are multiple worlds to unlock, option to switch between a laser and plasma gun, using bombs and escape with high speed power up when needed. The gameplay feels right. It's natural and quite satisfying. Definitely a good choice for short sessions. Easy to pick up and play. Made for Super Stardust & Geometry Wars fans. https://twitter.com/shaggy_dwarf https://www.facebook.com/ShaggyDwarf/ https://vk.com/shaggydwarf ## Key features - Dual-stick controls for movement and firing - Variety of unique enemies and bosses - Weapon upgrades and power-ups - Defend orbit and destroy asteroids - Multiple worlds to unlock - Fast-paced arcade action ## Recent user reviews (10 of 21) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/orbital-invadersspace-shooter/id1457496008/reviews.md ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-05-16* The ga is fun to play. Once you figure out how to play you can keep playing for hours and hours. You can play this over and over again place this over and over again. The game and controls are very responsive. The graphics are very smooth. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-08-31* Orbital Invaders has all sorts of creative ideas. It is one of the best games on the App Store. It is really difficult but I was able to complete it eventually. Please note that the controls are simple so kids will be able to enjoy the game. There are a lot of crazy lighting effects that remind me of the Nintendo Wii period of games. If you have missed the crazy lighting fad then you will really enjoy Orbital Invaders. ### 3/5 — Quit *2025-08-28* Apps should never have a quit option. They only crash. Otherwise nice. ### 5/5 — Задумка классная, реализация тоже; но баги есть *2024-11-10* Пожалуйста, понизьте сложность, даже первый уровень слишком хардкорный; так же прошу исправить баг с кнопками управления; если зафейлить прохождение первого уровня, то кнопки дублируются и мешают процессу игры; в меню перемещения кнопок, они не меняются и не удаляются, фиксится только переустановкой игры; так же не сохраняется количество накопленной валюты за уровень, если проиграл - оно обнуляется; смысл тогда в нем, если в начале уровня не можешь забуститься, потому что валюты ноль ### 4/5 — Controller Support! *2024-06-19* This is an awesome game! Please add backbone controller support. ### 3/5 — Super star dust *2024-06-13* I wanna love it but needs controller support. ### 5/5 — Could be awesome *2023-09-19* Can’t remove ads, no high score list ### 3/5 — Unable to remove ads. *2023-09-12, version 1.8.5* Tried repeatedly to pay for the upgrade with no luck. Just a dead link ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-01-28, version 1.8.5* Would be nice to have a back story in game between levels for example, and be able to continue on the next level (planet) unless I’m missing something. Having a leader board and two player options would add another dimension of fun. Great 3d scrolling game with a lot of simple yet addictive fun. ### 1/5 — Schlechte Kopie *2022-11-12* Schlampig programmiertes Plagiat eines großartigen klassikers. Hier ist einfach alles schlecht. Dumpfer sound in
