WHAT THE CRITICS SAY
«ORBITAL is a game of skill, it's a game of strategy, it's a game of reflexes, and it's a game you will keep front and center of your iPhone for weeks on end.»
- John Bardinelli (jayisgames.com)
«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)
«Orbital is the most visually appealing brick breaker type game that I have ever laid eyes on and had the chance to play.» 5/5
- Mike (iphoneincanada.ca)
«While there are already a few iPhone 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
You must shoot orbs into a grid with your cannon. The orb you fired will expand until it touches a wall or another orb. Each orb contains the number ‘3’, which decreases by one every time it is hit. After 3 hits they explode and you earn a point. The game could be endless… There is just one condition: a shot orb must not touch the death line above the cannon! If it does, the game is over.
A simple concept to rack your brains and nerves.

FEATURES
- Single & Two player mode
- 3 game modes: Gravity, Pure & Supernova
- Beautiful particle effects
- All-time & 24 Hours online Leader board

About Orbital: Analog Watch Face
Orbital is a modern, minimalist analog watch face for Wear OS. The hour sits on its own small dial that drifts around the centre as the minutes pass. Always turning to stay upright, Orbital still reads like a normal clock while the face is quietly in motion.
Instead of the fixed hour hand of an ordinary analog face, Orbital carries the hour on a compact sub-dial that travels around the face opposite the minute hand and counter-rotates to keep its numerals upright. The wandering-hours idea is inspired from mechanical watches that use an oil-based display, rebuilt flat on true black. A short teardrop hand inside the sub-dial points to the hour, and the 12-mark hour track fills from the top as the hours go by.
Pick one colour for the whole minute ring and another for the whole hour dial, from a palette of 54 — a full spectrum plus white, a set of muted earth tones, and three greens. Every two-tone combination is built to work on the black background.
Comes with 2 Complication slots, which support icon, ranged, short and long text. You can configure how the hour dial looks to personalize your face!
All colour configurations, the centre readout and updates are included in the price. No subscription required! Every screenshot on this page is the actual watch face; nothing shown here is behind a paywall.
COMPATIBILITY
Wear OS 4 or later with Watch Face Format.
SUPPORT
This watch face will continue to grow and improve. If you have any issues, questions, or improvements, please reach out via email at [email protected] before giving a poor rating. I take any improvement seriously and will address any concern as soon as possible. Thank you!
