WHAT THE CRITICS SAY
«A picnic to understand, but a marathon to get beyond the first few minutes, Orbital's simple style is perfect for those looking for fill the odd spare moment.» 8/10
- Keith Andrew (pocketgamer.co.uk)
«While there are already a few games that share the same gameplay mechanics as Orbital, none of them look anywhere near as cool.»
- Eli Hodapp (toucharcade.com)
«BitForge has managed to combine the addictive gameplay of Peggle and the beauty of Geometry Wars, two digital forms of crack, into one easy to use package.»
- Chad George (thatvideogameblog.com)
«Orbital takes simple gameplay and dresses it up with a unique “gravity” feature and enhanced graphics. The game can be very frustrating at times, but that won’t keep you from coming back for another try.» 4/5
- Will Raskin (148apps.com)
«Orbital has got fantastic graphics and unfussy features. Come to think of it, there are really no negative points about the game. Good going, Bitforge!» 5/5

GAMEPLAY
Shoot the colorful orbs onto a grid. As soon as the orb stops it will grow until it hits an obstacle (wall or another orb on the playing field). Now you have to shoot the orb several times with the following orbs until it’s destroyed. Every destroyed orb grants you one single point. You could collect endless points but there is one difficulty: The shot mustn’t hit the death line above the cannon. If it does, the game is over! How many points can you get?

The supernova mode is fun but the other modes are unsatisfying, which is disappointing when those are the ones you pay for in the full version. I'd keep playing if they built upon the concept for the supernova mode, but I'm bored of how it is.

One of the first games I got on Android, way back when it was still called "google market." Also one of the first games I install on new devices or after a wipe. Honestly, I doubt it could be improved in any way. Nominated for sixth star.

I've enjoyed this game ever since I bought it for iOS in 2010. Simple game mechanic that's very risk-vs-reward with an excellent 2-player option that feels almost like some kind of classic board game. A must-have game for serious and casual gamers alike! Even better on tablets... The bigger the screen, the better for this type of game!

Great fun. Very rewarding when you set off a chain reaction. If there was an update a mode where the play area is prefilled with orbs would be good. Cheers!

This hand is a must. But gravity mode is the one. You can loose your self in this game for ages. So much so, I would like to ask the creators on the next update please can you try and incorporate the time. A little digital clock somewhere would be great. If you have it as an option, then it's up to the user if they want to use there internet data. But apart from that. Love it. Keep up the good work. Thank you. Chris

I love this app. I had this app back in the day when I had the iPhone 3 and this was only available for Apple, not android. I am so happy this is available on Android now. And paying $3 for the full version is totally worth it. Also if you have the galaxy note, this game works great with the s pen!

What else can I say? I purchased Orbital a couple years ago just after getting my first smartphone, and it still holds up today. Bright, colorful, minimalist design. Elegantly simple game mechanics. No microtransactions or DLC. Love it.

Works fine on GNote 1 and Asus MeMo Pad HD7, both 1280x800 devices on android 4.2. The new Nexus 7 has problems, don't know if it's the higher res screen, the GPU or android 4.3 but it crashes a few seconds into each game. One of my favourite games ever so looking forward to a fix.

Mind-crack from one-hit wonder Bitforge. Gameplay is basic and it does get a little repetitive after a while, but it is very addictive. The in-game statistics tell me I have lost nearly a week of my life on this wretched game.

Since the last update the game has become slow, sluggish and unstable. Crashes often when I go into the game and always crashes when exiting the game on my HTC One with the latest 4.3 Jellybean update. Its my favourite game. Please fix.
