ANDi writes: It's Saturday, but Ben isn't resting. In todays review, Ben has been looking at the award winning Orbit - Playing with Gravity. Orbit is a gravity simulator at the heart of a puzzle game. Launch planets with a flick of your hand, and try to get them into stable orbits around black holes.
PureXbox:
You have to hand it to recently formed Norwegian developer 4Bit Games; getting your first title straight onto the Xbox One store is no small achievement, especially when your company had no prior games industry experience. Orbit is a retro-styled space brawler which combines the intensity of four-player multiplayer battles with the intricacies of navigating space flight, whilst avoiding incoming asteroids and working with or against the gravity of celestial bodies.
Maneuver your ship between planets at breakneck speeds and take gravity into account as you crush your competitors with an epic spaceship arsenal. Use special abilities like shields and teleportation to defeat your enemies, and level up between fights as the madness intensifies in this twin-stick multiplayer space brawler!
It looks like a dubstep mashup of Geo Wars and Boom Boom Rocket!
Looks like insane fun.
I jus love these bite sized games. Its a nice little diversion from our big boy exclusives and third party AAAs. I can dig it.
