About

Kessler Orbit

Every scale you hold becomes a single point on the next. Kessler Orbit starts where every defence game starts: one planet, and things falling toward it. Then it zooms out. Hold Earth's orbit and it collapses into a point on the map of the Moon. Hold that, and it becomes a coordinate on its way around the Sun. Five scales, one set of rules. FIVE SCALES Orbit - Earth and its three shells: LEO, MEO, GEO. Cislunar - the Moon and its Lagrange points, turning together. Inner system - Venus, Mars and the asteroid belt. New stations fly on transfer orbits. Solar system - Jupiter and Saturn bend every path that comes close. Neighbourhood - the nearest stars. Every order you give travels at the speed of light. SIX STATIONS, SIX DIALS EACH Lasers burn through one target at a time. Railguns kill big rocks - and shatter them into swarms, the Kessler cascade. Nets catch the swarms. Flak bursts over whole clouds. Tugs never destroy: they push an object past, and it comes back later, lighter. Interceptors hunt far beyond any gun's reach. Every station has six dials, and every dial shows its value now and after the upgrade, before you pay. MOONS AND PLANETS Tap the Moon, Mars or Jupiter and build up its base: mining, a battery of its own, and reach. WHAT YOU BUILT STAYS On the next scale, everything below is your shield - exactly as strong as you made it. Two thirds of your research travel up with you. REAL DISTANCES, ABSTRACT VIEW Fine lines, points and coordinates: L4 sixty degrees ahead of the Moon, Mars at 1.52 AU, Alpha Centauri at 4.37 light years. The only thing drawn the way it looks is Earth. FAIR No ads. No loot boxes. Gems buy time - speed, a second chance after a defeat, gold from the freighter. Nothing is locked behind a purchase. SUPPLY LINE SUBSCRIPTION Supply Line - EUR 4.99 per month (price varies by region). Delivers gems and gold every day and unlocks 3x speed while it runs.
