About

Orbit Dodge

Features
Read full description

Tap. The orbit flips. You live. Miss it by a hair and your satellite detonates in a shower of neon. Orbit Dodge is the one-second-to-learn, hours-to-master space arcade dodger you will not put down. You are a glowing satellite locked in orbit around a burning core. Neon obstacles come screaming in from the edges of the screen. You get one control: tap anywhere, and your orbit instantly reverses. That is it. That is the whole game. And that is exactly why you will play it for the next four hours. HOW IT WORKS - Tap anywhere to reverse your orbit direction. Instantly. - Time the flip to slip past incoming neon. Every clean dodge is a point. - Miss once and it is over. Screen shake, particle blast, back to the start. - Or burn a revive and keep the run alive. WHY IT GETS UNDER YOUR SKIN - Learn it in one second. Genuinely. There is nothing to read. - Master it in hours. The difficulty ramps quietly and it never stops. - Every death is your fault. That is the point. One more run. - Your best score sits there, one point out of reach, mocking you. BUILT TO LOOK STUNNING - Premium neon on a deep space black. - A comet trail that streaks behind you as you flip. - Particle bursts, screen shake, and a death explosion that feels earned. - The colour palette shifts as your score climbs. Deep blue at 0. You will find out what waits at 100. PERFECT FOR - The two minutes you are standing in a queue. - The commute. - The moment you say "last one" and mean it, six times in a row. - Anyone who has ever been beaten by a game they could explain in five words. WHAT YOU GET - Free to play. No in-app purchases. Ever. - Play offline. No wifi needed. - One hand, portrait, no tutorial, no menus to fight. - An endless score chase with no ceiling. Watch a rewarded video to revive mid-run and save a great score from a stupid mistake. Your call, every time. The rules take a second to learn. The score takes a lifetime. Tap to flip. Do not miss.
