ORBIT

calm hops between planets

Help

How do I play?

Tap anywhere to leave your orbit. The dot flies straight on in the direction it was moving at that moment, so time your tap so it heads toward the next planet. Hop quickly to build a combo: every five links the sky and the music grow.

When do I lose a life?

When the dot leaves the screen. In Hard, hitting a moon also costs a life. Chill and Hard give you three lives, and Timed gives you one.

How does the extra life work?

When a run is about to end, Orbit may offer one more life for watching a short ad. It's always your choice, and it's offered once per run. Ads need an internet connection, so the offer can be missing when you're offline or when no ad is available. Supporters get the extra life without an ad.

What are starlight sets?

Each time you watch the extra-life ad, a star lights in the next starlight set. Ten stars unlock that set's vessel, trail and galaxy. If you're signed in to iCloud, your lit stars come back when you reinstall or move to a new iPhone or iPad.

I bought Supporter but don't have it

Open the JOURNAL, go to the SHOP tab and tap restore purchases. Make sure you're signed in with the same Apple Account you bought it with.

When do the leaderboards reset?

Every Monday at 00:00 UTC. Chill, Hard and Timed each have a board for runs without the extra life and one for runs that used it.

Can I change my leaderboard name?

Names are made up for you, like "Silver Comet". On the leaderboard screen, tap your name for a new one.

How does Timed work?

Every week there's one course, the same for every player. Land on 25 different planets as fast as you can. A new course arrives each Monday.

I can't hear anything

Orbit is best with sound. Check that your iPhone isn't on silent and the volume is up.

Will my progress move to a new device?

Your scores, galaxy and journal are kept on your device. Starlight stars return through iCloud, and Supporter returns with restore purchases.
