Orbitarion is a tick-based space strategy MMO. The galaxy moves every 30 minutes, whether you are watching or not. Check in a few times a day, give your planet its orders, and come back to find the map has changed. WHAT YOU DO Build a planet. Research an economy. Construct fleets and send them out. Join an alliance and hold territory together. FIVE FACTIONS, FIVE WAYS TO FIGHT United Earth Command fires last and survives everything. The Odonari swarm in cheap cloaked numbers. The Aetherians freeze enemy fleets before they can act. The Sytherian Cartel hijack ships instead of destroying them. The Void is not playable. It garrisons the map, and it fights back. NO PAY TO WIN Every gameplay system is free. Premium is cosmetic and convenience only. All commanders have equal footing. SEASONS Each season is a fresh start with a new galaxy. Nothing carries over except your reputation.

About

Loop Looters

Steal the gems. Reach the exit. And when one run isn’t enough, loop it. Loop Looters is a fast, one-thumb puzzle heist where your previous runs become echoes that replay every move. Use them to hold switches, open paths, distract danger and help your next attempt reach the vault exit before time runs out. PLAN THE PERFECT HEIST Learn each vault, record a run, then use your echo to solve what you couldn’t do alone. Every move matters. 250 VAULTS TO CRACK Work your way through 10 museum wings packed with escalating challenges, boss vaults and new mechanics. DODGE THE SECURITY Beat laser grids, guards, patrols, pressure plates, one-way gates, timed doors, keys, teleporters, cameras and EMP puzzles. CHASE THREE STARS Finish quickly and efficiently, replay cleared vaults and improve your score. DAILY HEIST Take on the same special vault as everyone else once per day and build your streak. LOOT, UNLOCK, CUSTOMIZE Collect gems, unlock looter skins, echo trails and vault styles, and complete achievements along the way. Designed for quick sessions with simple swipe or directional controls, satisfying sound and haptic feedback.
