Planetary Sling
Read full descriptionHide full description
Stranded in the void, your survival depends on a single force: gravity. Planetary Sling is a fun physics puzzler where you launch your escape pod on a trajectory towards the docking station. Planetary systems get increasingly complex as you play through the levels. Satisfaction is guaranteed when you sling your pod, collect the stars, and successfully dock. The physics are smooth, yet arcade-style. Learn on the go through trial and error. Unlock achievements with full Game Center support. No ads, no data collection. I have optimized the game to run as smoothly as possible. I canโt wait to see the paths you find. Try to find the perfect trajectory for each level!
Orbitfall
Read full descriptionHide full description
Pull back, let go, and bend your probe around a gravity well into the wormhole. The fewer flicks it takes, the better your score. Orbitfall is space golf with real gravity. The aim line only shows the start of your curve โ never where you land โ so every shot is a read, not a trace. Miss and you can recall the probe instantly and try the line again. FIVE REGIONS, FIVE NEW RULES โข First Light โ clean launches and steady gravity โข Ember Reach โ dense fields with several wells pulling at once โข Reverse Field โ repulsors that shove the probe away โข The Drift โ wells that orbit, so timing matters โข Eventide โ boost gates and everything combined Every sector is checked for at least two clean solutions before you ever fly it, so there is always a line to find. DAILY ORBIT โ FREE, EVERY DAY Five sectors, the same five for every player worldwide. Your total flicks is your score, fewest wins, and the day's board is there without an account. KEEP A FLIGHT RECORD Lifetime flicks, per-sector bests, stars, medals, and unlockable probe trails. Share a card of your exact shot so a friend can watch the line you flew. WHAT'S FREE The first 12 campaign sectors, the full Daily Orbit and its leaderboard, medals and trails. No ads. Plays offline. GO PRO A one-time unlock or the StackForge Play Pass adds: โข The rest of the campaign โ every sector past 12 โข Hardcore โ fly the campaign with no aim preview at all โข Weekly Gauntlet โ a ranked seven-sector run with its own board โข Flight Log โ replay your best launch for each cleared sector, plus your career totals The Play Pass unlocks Pro in every StackForge game, plus One Good Thing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Planetary Sling at none against Orbitfall's 3. Planetary Sling also leads on update cadence (daily vs monthly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
