About this game
The developer's description, from the game's Steam store page.
Gravity is your arena. Orbital Hell locks you inside a hollow planet where the horizon curves up over your head and the horde comes from every direction. There are no corners to hide in: just you, your rotary cannon and hundreds of enemies orbiting with you.
ORBITAL ARSENAL
Your gatling fires on its own: you decide where to look and when to spend what matters. Charge the Extra Shot to sweep whole lanes of enemies, trigger the Orbital Shield to blast off the ground wiping out everything around you, and chain Boosts to surf the arena at full speed.
ENEMIES ARE PLATFORMS
Jump off the swarms to refresh your double jump and stay airborne: the floor is optional. Every bounce charges your shield, every kill feeds the combo and every combo rockets your score.
TWO MODES, ONE RANKING
- Normal: survive escalating waves, bosses included, and chase the power surges that slow down time.
- Boss Rush: a gauntlet of bosses with timed interlude rounds.
OPTIONAL VR MODE
Step inside the sphere. Play in VR with an OpenXR headset and dual-wield a gatling in each hand, aiming each one on its own. Includes a dedicated VR tutorial and separate VR leaderboards. VR is entirely optional: the desktop game plays exactly the same.
NEW BOSS: THE HYPERCUBE
A four-dimensional tesseract that folds through itself while the swarm crawls along its edges. Destroy its four red anchors before its lock-on lasers find you.
REPLAYS ON THE GLOBAL LEADERBOARDS
Every record uploads with its replay to the Steam leaderboards: watch any top player's best run from inside the game, and leave yours for others to beat.
PURE ARCADE
Neon low-poly style, dynamic music that grows with the horde, "one more run" sessions. Full controller and Steam Deck support.
