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 - Yoyo (iphonefootprint.com) ----------------------------------------- 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?
----------------------------------------- ORBITAL is based on Gimme Friction Baby by Wouter Visser.

Finally, updated and back to awesome For a very long time the support for the game on Android was neglected. However now it finally scales properly. The gameplay is still as addictive as ever :) Although simple at the core, the strategy, timing and skill potential to reach the highest score is incredible!!! I'm giving it 4 stars until it gets integration with Google Play Game Services and unlike a few months ago I can see that happening now :) PS to developer: Update the game flow to support back button.

Used to be an addict, but since I switched to a Moto-X, it's been unplayable! It suffers from an inconsistent frame rate and isn't any fun anymore. Can anything please be done to optimize for this platform?
