Orbit Hopper is a gravity-based space arcade game where you slingshot a rocket between planets on an epic cosmic journey. Orbit. Charge. Launch. It's that simple — but mastering it takes real skill. Your rocket automatically orbits each planet it lands on. Hold to charge your launch power, aim using the gravity-curved trajectory, and release to fly. Land on the next planet with pinpoint accuracy to earn Perfect, Good, or OK ratings that multiply your score. CAMPAIGN MODE Blast through themed worlds — from rocky wastelands and frozen tundras to neon cities and deep void dimensions. Each zone brings new visuals, music, and atmosphere. Reach Earth to complete your mission... if you can survive the obstacles ahead. INFINITE MODE How far can you go? Push your limits in endless mode where the difficulty never stops climbing. Chase high scores and climb the global leaderboards. MONTHLY EVENTS Every month brings a fresh event with daily challenges and an event reward tree. Complete challenges, collect bonus coins during gameplay, and unlock exclusive cosmetic skins you can't get anywhere else. Missed a month? Those skins are gone — play daily to collect them all. DODGE DEADLY OBSTACLES Asteroids orbiting planets, black holes pulling you in, space mines, fire-breathing aliens, electric fields, spinning sentries, and saw blades — each obstacle demands a different strategy to survive. UNLOCK ROCKETS & COMPANIONS Progress further to unlock new rockets with unique abilities — wider accuracy, longer drift time, smaller hitbox, and more. Equip a companion for extra powers like extended trajectory preview, portal luck boosts, fireball shields, or even auto-revive. DISCOVER SECRET ZONES Watch for mysterious portals that warp you into hidden dimensions with bonus score multipliers. Explore the Cosmic Vault, bioluminescent gardens, and other secret zones for massive rewards. FEATURES • Intuitive one-touch slingshot controls • Physics-based gravity and orbit mechanics • Multiple themed worlds with unique music • Campaign, Infinite, and Academy training modes • Monthly events with daily challenges • Exclusive event skins and reward trees • Unlockable rockets with special abilities • Companions with unique gameplay powers • Secret warp portals and hidden zones • Global leaderboards and achievements • Cloud save — pick up where you left off • Play in your language Master gravity.

One tap. Don't miss. SlingStar is a pocket-sized arcade dare: you orbit a planet, and a single tap slings you across the void toward the next one. Catch its gravity ring and keep climbing. Miss, and you're space dust. Easy to learn, brutal to master: - ONE-TAP CONTROLS — orbit, tap, fly. That's the whole tutorial. - PERFECT SHOTS — thread the center line to chain combos and rack up bonus points as the pitch climbs. - COLLAPSING PLANETS — the deeper you go, the faster your footing crumbles. Don't linger. - 3-SECOND RETRIES — death is never more than a tap from redemption. - CHALLENGE FRIENDS — share your best score and start an argument. - STAR STYLES — unlock SlingStar Pro for all six star skins and trails. One purchase, forever. No subscriptions, no ads, no nonsense. How far can you sling?

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SlingStar at none against Orbit Hopper's 10. SlingStar also leads on ads (none vs shown). Orbit Hopper's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price there is nothing between them.
