Orbital Bullet – The 360° Rogue-lite

Orbital Bullet is a brisk 360-degree action-platformer with rogue-lite leanings, and everything in it plays out around a circular arena. You shoot a path through an assortment of procedurally generated planets, leaning on body modifications, crafting, upgrades and heavy firepower. Kill, die, modify.

Projectiles travel in a full 360-degree arc, giving the gunplay a feel all its own, line up satisfying long-range curved sniper shots, shred enemies with a hyper shotgun, or reach for a rocket launcher. Each death is permanent, but dying is part of the fun, and afterward you put Nanobytes toward lasting upgrades and abilities, from a bigger Medi-Backpack to a Combo System that ramps up the pace.

Replayability runs deep: a dynamic skill tree that changes every run, more than 42 guns, weapon upgrades and perks, and four unlockable classes such as the turret-carrying Engineer and the fire-fueled Hellion, each with a different skill tree. A Streak System makes each completed run progressively harder, all backed by a thumping electronica score. The Save the World Edition adds the official soundtrack and donates 10% of its revenue to the Ocean Cleanup.
