Orbit Launcher 🪐

Circle a planet, tap, and launch into space toward the next one. Orbit Launcher is a calm, one-tap arcade game about hopping from world to world. There’s no finish line and the game never gets harder, so it’s just you, the stars and a slow, drifting soundtrack.

How to play

  • You orbit a planet. Tap anywhere to launch in the direction you’re moving. The dotted line shows where you’ll go.
  • Fly into another planet’s orbit ring to land on it. Every new planet is +1p.
  • Don’t stay too long: the yellow ring counts down until your planet collapses.
  • Grab ā˜… stars to multiply your final score. 
  • Hop again quickly after landing to build a combo, up to Ɨ5 per planet.
  • Dodge the asteroids and don’t fly off the sides of the screen.

Power-ups
Now and then a glowing crate floats between the planets. Fly through it for a timed power:

  • 🧲 Magnet: locks on to the next planet above you and pulls you in.
  • ā†”ļø Wall Bounce: bounce off the sides of the screen instead of flying off.
  • šŸ’„ Asteroid Killer: smash asteroids by flying into them.
  • šŸ›”ļø Planet Protector: planets stop collapsing while it lasts.
