User Reviews for Orbit - Playing with Gravity

This game is so much fun

I love this game and I have only been playing it for 2 days I am on level 6 I love the puzzles and patterns they make. They look so cool! On day 1 I couldn't get past level 2 but today I am on level 6 this game is so much fun and I think people who love challenges would love it. The only thing I think can be a little bit annoying sometimes is that from level 2 you start getting levels with attractive planets but It is okay I think it is very unique it has only been a little bit annoying in level 6 with the attractive planets and not having them collide with the other planets but it is really fun I love it so much!

What I’ve been looking for for a long time

I’m a research assistant with the focus of our research being on numerical solutions to black hole chaotic systems, and I whole heartedly approve of this game. It captures so many interesting aspects of the many body problem in such a simple yet meaningful way, and it’s available in a way that’s both accessible and enjoyable to all. I applaud the developer for making something like this, I’ve seen many attempts to do something like this but never one executed so well and with excellent attention to detail. It serves as a landmark of scientific education and communication gone well, even if it wasn’t trying to.Kudos where kudos is deserved, keep up the great work!

Crazy good

This is super cool. Simple but packed deep and is very engaging while also somehow being incredibly relaxing at the same time. Playground is definitely worth buying. Only requests are for the game to be full screen on iPhone X, and for improvements to the playground editor. Editor needs more intuitive way of interacting with existing objects on the screen. I’ve only occasionally been able to edit an object; not sure what conditions must exist to do that. I usually have to clear all on screen when I make any mistake. I’d like to be able to put an object on screen, interact with it and edit the parameters as needed. The editor controls are very tiny on phone (maybe increase size, show all at same time to avoid all the sub menu clicking and searching for the control I want) and the overlay pop up text on the control just gets in the way (simple labels on controls would avoid need to describe what the icon does). Accidentally adding objects under the control menu is frustrating. Selective edit and remove item may help with that, or allow edit/move item. Thanks. It’s a great app with tons of potential!

Great game... if you can get it to open

I downloaded the game and I played it. It was a good game, watching the planets orbit black holes is really satisfying, and getting to interact with it is even better! But, of course, not everything is perfect. So, I was playing the game and then 10 minutes into playing it the game just crashed. Why? Could be something on my end, but I doubt it, being that this has never happened to me before with other apps. So I tried to open the game again but it wouldn’t let me. Every time I tried I’d see a gray screen for about five seconds and then the game would automatically close. I deleted the game and reinstalled it and it worked for another 10 minutes and crashed again. As I said, could be something on my end, but I doubt it. Overall great game, but what’s the point of a game if you can’t play it?

Oh my god!

This game is amazing it’s so relaxing and runs smoothly, there is nothing I would change. This game is amazing but there is a limited amount of levels created for the “story mode”, I do understand that you have to take a long time to make each level. The levels are also easy beatable if you just spam planets. I do understand why there is a price on the “sandbox mode” but I do thing that the should be a free trial so you can experiment with the physics. Other than those things I would highly recommend this game to anyone, I have also tried playing other games like this and nothing even comes close to this game. Once again this is an amazing game, props to you creators.

Amazing Game

This game isn’t like many others. It isn’t ad heavy and occasionally an ad will pop up, but Chetan, the developer, makes sure you understand why. Chetan makes me feel like they’re trying their best and tries to make you feel comfortable with the game and the reason for some ads I like other ad heavy games with ads every 30 seconds. Also, the game is relaxing with the smooth patterns and fun and challenging levels. Overall, this is a must download game, and I hope to see more games from this developer because I feel like they can make mobile games fun once again

Ridiculously hard

I don’t know if it’s the mechanics and I don’t know it but the game doesn’t seem logical, a planet that orbits good the first 3 times all the sudden splinters off and goes into the sun (or moon into planet). Can’t do the figure 8 well. Did once and it only orbited once or twice and went into the sun. It wasn’t close to the suns to do thatThen times you get 6 planets for one or more suns without being able to zoom in or out leaving just a ridiculously small screen as a play hoping nothing crashesThe planets are odd. Sometimes they crash and other times they collect. Two planets crash and go into the sun and another time I had up to 5 planets right next to each other orbiting around the sun.Just be consistent and for people who don’t understand gravity or physics, have better directions. Have better lines or get a thing that makes a larger line (like most puzzle pop bubble type games), like in each level have them do a thing and show them exactly how to do it. It’s a good concept and great development with the coding but it’s honestly somewhat of a poor execution.

Nice idea, but laws of physics seem off

Liked the app very much and it is the most entertaining app I have, even bought the full pack. But laws of physics seem to not be enforced. In couple examples of repulsive black hole traps a single planet can cease to move over time, which contradicts to momentum conservation. If you create just a single black hole And let a planet revolve around, the orbit presses. That can only happen in non spherical gravity field. If you create two black holes without motion, disable collisions and let them fall to one another, they eventually fly to infinity after a single interaction. That all can be explained by movement computation done on time interval basis, not every length certain step in space being calculated. I think, author needs to pay more attention to realism i on f the game

Fun to Use and Educational

Yes, it is the best app to use if your on a long car ride. And it is good for someone who’s fidgety.It’s also very educational to someone who’s not familiar to orbital mechanics.For example,I learned how tidal locking functions and why Roche’s Limit is a thingBut I really think you should add some sort of “space mode” to have a black background, perhaps with some stars, and the ability to turn it off or on in the preferences tab.It would make no sense to have an orbital mechanics/space themed app that has a white background, considering that the speed of light is finite.And “black holes” that have repulsive gravity should be white, since that fits the description of a white hole, maybe a bit darker than the white background to enhance it’s visibility.It would be cool if users could have access to comments in sandbox mode, and if anyone is being naughty there can be a report button, like with the exhibits and levels (if you even acknowledge the reports)

Holy Jesus

This is a really freaking great game. There are no words for how ingenious it is. It runs pretty smoothly for me. The simplistic design is very appealing, and I love making massive clusters of planets and have their trails just go crazy. The puzzles are challenging enough to not be unentertaining, not hard enough to be (very) frustrating, and creative enough to make you think. The mechanics are pretty great, and my friends and I had a good time puzzling over the solutions. (*obligatory uncomfortable silence after pun*) One thing I must note, however, is that you can solve a bunch of the levels by just spamming planets. Maybe add a limit to the planets per level?The user-created levels were a great idea, and I fully support the idea of having to pay for them- and I would buy them if I wasn't poor- but I mostly see the same or similar things in the user-made levels. You can only do so much with what's given, I guess. I don't know what there is, I'm still poor. The only problem I can see is that there isn't very many levels, and after I got sick of the same user-made levels over and over again I didn't play as much. I don't think it's fair to ask for more levels, as I know how much effort can go into thinking of a good puzzle, but I did all the levels in around 2 weeks, playing during lunch breaks.

Description

ORBIT is a gravity simulator at the heart of a puzzle game. Launch planets with a flick of your finger, and try to get them into stable orbits around black holes. Can you make enough orbits to progress to the next level?

New: ORBIT now features a Sandbox (paid) where you can create your own levels! Control time, disable collisions, and paint with gravity. Publish your creations to the world for everyone to play. • 45 free levels, with new mechanics are introduced over time — like repulsive black holes and planets with their own gravity that attract each other • Play community-created levels — virtually limitless content made by other players, all completely free • Launch as many planets as you like, and watch the mesmerizing orbital mechanics unfold • Planets leave colored traces, so that at the end of a level you will have created a beautiful piece of art • See the future trajectory of a planet before you launch it • Play in an environment of smooth, minimalist graphics while listening to relaxing classical piano Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/highkeygames Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/highkeygames
