Mission briefing
One orbit, one planet, no room for hesitation
Orbit Defense strips a space-defense game down to its clearest idea: your satellite continuously circles Earth, and a tap reverses its direction. That single input is enough to create a sharp reaction challenge.
The best runs come from reading the next collision early instead of tapping frantically. It is fast, minimal, and ideal for short bursts of concentration.
One-touch control
A single tap reverses the satellite and changes the defensive angle.
Read the approach
Spot each incoming planet before it reaches a dangerous path around Earth.
Quick reflex loops
The minimal rules keep the focus on timing and repeatable score chasing.
