Orbit Swarm is a top-down space roguelite. Your weapons orbit your ship and fire on their own, so your job is simple: stay alive and build something stronger than the swarm.

What you get

  • 10 ships, each with its own rule
  • 11 weapons that merge up to tier IV
  • A branching Star Map: six planets, six Guardians, and the Overlord waiting at wave 30
  • A shop between every wave, set bonuses, ship parts and 53 items to stack
  • No permanent power upgrades: every run starts fair
  • English and Turkish, and it plays offline

Tell us what you think

This is our first release on Google Play, and your feedback shapes what comes next. Found a bug or a build that breaks the game? Send it through the feedback form, or leave a review on the store page.

Follow @glintbyte on Instagram for updates. See you in the swarm.
