## What is Planetary Orbit?

Planetary Orbit is a minimalist one-tap arcade game set in a mesmerizing solar system.

You orbit a glowing planet. Tap anywhere to release — your dot flies through space. Catch the next planet before you drift into the void.

THE GAME
• Tap to release from orbit and fly toward the next planet
• Land on it to score a point and keep your streak alive
• Miss the next planet and you disappear into space
• The world scrolls upward continuously — idle too long and you fall off the screen
• Speed and difficulty increase as your score climbs

VISUAL THEMES
As you play, the sky, planets, and trails evolve through stunning visual themes. Seven handcrafted worlds to discover:
— Aurora: cool greens and teal in a northern night sky
— Volcanic: fiery reds over a molten horizon
— Deep Ocean: deep blues beneath a twilight sea
— Neon City: electric purples and magentas at midnight
— Dusk: warm ambers and gold under a fading sun
— Night: crisp whites and deep blues in the quiet dark
— Dream: soft purples and indigo in a cosmic dreamscape

TRAILS
Leave a signature trail as you orbit:
— Classic: a clean, elegant arc. Always free.
— Comet: a wide luminous tail with a glowing core
— Rainbow: a color-shifting spectrum that cycles as you fly

MUSIC
A generative ambient soundtrack evolves with the game — no two runs sound exactly alike.

THE CHALLENGE
Orbit speed increases every 5 points. Planet gaps grow wider. One mistimed tap ends everything.

Simple to learn. Hard to put down.
