Orbital

01.06.2026
Orbital is an outer space, endless survival, arcade game where players become planetary pilots to prolong the inevitable grasp of a super massive blackhole, witnessing the collapse of the solar system. Navigate the cosmic perils and chaos, deploying specialised planetary tech to endure the onslaught and ascend the galactic leaderboard. Adapt your strategy with each mission and push your endurance further with every attempt.
You are a Planetary Pilot, humanity's elite. Tasked with prolonging the inevitable grasp of a supermassive blackhole. Dodge asteroids, navigate wormholes, and avoid shooting stars while utilising specialized planetary technologies alongside other Galactic Defenders. Obtain Quanta to unlock new planets. Ascend amid global leaderboards. Success or Achievement or Glory is measured in seconds, not survival. For three millennia, humanity has known this moment would come. There is no escape. There is no salvation. There is only time. When our ancestors first detected the supermassive black hole and its trajectory was towards our solar system, they began the greatest preparation in human history. Every planet in the system was colonised and transformed into fortress worlds, ready for the final battle. Each planet was outfitted with unparalleled planetary technologies, the pinnacle of human ingenuity, born from our most desperate hours. These innovations were created with a singular purpose: to delay the inevitable and postpone doom. The Interstellar Defense Network (IDN) was formed with a single mandate: when the black hole arrives, make every second count. Its gravitational pull is absolute, its hunger insatiable, its advance unstoppable. One by one, the planets we spent millennia preparing are being dragged toward oblivion. Your mission is not to save these world's, that outcome was sealed eons ago, but to buy humanity precious time to evacuate to distant systems, where humanity can survive. Every second matters. Every moment of survival is a small victory against the inevitable. You are one of the IDN's Planetary Pilots, the pinnacle of human potential. Chosen from billions and trained from childhood, your reflexes, intellect, and willpower represent the absolute peak of unmodified human ability. Planetary Pilots undergo years of rigorous neural conditioning to harmonize with a planet's command core, forging an unbreakable bond with the world they defend. Strapped into the command core, you do not simply control the planet, you become it. Every technology embedded in its crust, every defense system woven through its atmosphere, responds to your will. Endure chaotic asteroid fields as gravitational forces tear the solar system apart. Deploy your planet's technologies to withstand the relentless onslaught of cosmic debris, all while the black hole's pull grows stronger, inevitable and absolute. Whether you are consumed by infinite darkness or shattered against an asteroid in a final act of defiance, the outcome is certain: death. Yet, for every second you wrestle back from oblivion, you earn Quanta energy, harvested from the very edge of destruction. The IDN channels this energy to awaken dormant planets, unlocking their unique defense technologies to fuel humanity's ongoing resistance and allowing you to experience new strategies for delaying the end. But no matter which world you pilot, no matter which technologies you deploy, the outcome never changes. The black hole waits. The asteroids swarm. And eventually, inevitably, you fall. This is Orbital: an infinite survival challenge where victory is measured not in winning, but in lasting.

Partisans is a real-time tactical strategy with non-linear type of storytelling. This game is about soviet partisans and their activity during World war II. It’s focused on harsh reality in those times, when many people became reluctant heroes, and every feat required its price, and sometimes this price was extremely high. The game shows the war from a new, poorly explored angle. However, it is not a historical simulator, Partisans offers a unique interpretation of those times’ events. The game shows partisans’ everyday life, which is full of cold, hunger and wounds. Still there is a room for joy as well. Players would have to make tough choices, for example, they’ll have to decide whether to help civilians and betray their position or to walk past and stay unnoticed. The game give opportunities to prove oneself in a fight, to overcome the superior forces of the enemy using cunning and mother wit , and to leave the field when the situation is really bad.
