Orbit Hopping
Read full descriptionHide full description
Orbit is a one-thumb arcade game about trust, timing, and tangents. You're a tiny ship orbiting a planet. Tap once and let go — your ship flies off in a straight line. Thread it through the next planet's capture ring and you slide smoothly into a new orbit. Miss, and the run is over. There's no timer and no rush. You can wait in orbit as long as you like — but every planet spins a little faster than the last, so the launch window keeps closing in. How far can you get before your timing runs out? HOW TO PLAY • Tap to release your ship along its current tangent. • Land inside the capture ring to lock into the next orbit. • Land dead-center for a PERFECT — it builds your combo multiplier. • Miss the ring, or fly straight into the planet, and the run ends. FEATURES • One-tap controls — anyone can pick it up in five seconds. • Procedurally generated planets — no two runs play the same. • Combo scoring: chain perfects for a bigger multiplier. • Unlockable ship colors, earned by your best score. • Haptics and synthesized sound that react to every launch, capture, and crash. • Play in short bursts or long sessions — the difficulty always finds your limit. • No account, no sign-up, no internet required to play. Orbit is free to play and supported by ads. Ads never interrupt your run — you'll only see one between games, and you can always choose to watch a short ad to continue a run or unlock a ship color early. Simple to learn. Hard to put down. Can you beat your best?

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Orbit Hopping at none against Modern Combat 5's 10. Orbit Hopping also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 months). Modern Combat 5's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
