Orbit Launcher

About This Game

Your satellite circles a planet, winding up launch energy with every revolution. Release at the exact moment your orbit points at the next world and gravity whips you across the gap; mistime it and the void swallows your signal. Altitude is your score, measured in AU, so every clean hop pushes the record higher.

An on-screen gauge reads out each planet's gravity and your charge level, and no two worlds are alike — some spin lazily while others whirl with ferocious pull, so where you launch from shapes how hard you fly.

Momentum bleeds away in the empty space between planets, which means no skipping ahead: every transfer must be earned one orbit at a time.

Time dilates as you skim a gravity well, granting a heartbeat of slow motion to nail the capture; drift wide, fall behind, or overshoot your target and the run is over. A timing game with genuine orbital flavor for patient risk-takers.

Game Tips

• ⚡ Power caps at 100% — orbiting longer won't add more
• 🪐 Launching off a fast-spinning planet earns a bigger launch bonus
• 🧲 Near misses still count — graze close and gravity reels you in
