Description

Somewhere in the dark, a single wick burns. Your job is to keep small moons circling it. Drag back from anywhere on the screen, let go, and watch gravity take your throw and bend it into a curve.

Orbitwick is a quiet, unhurried 3D puzzle about aim and patience. A short dotted line previews the opening stretch of each throw; after that the flame's pull decides everything. Aim a hair differently and the moon ends up somewhere else entirely. A moon that drifts away comes back to the pad, so you can try again as often as you like. There are no clocks and no lives.

A moon is safe once it has travelled one complete lap inside the glowing ring. Bring every moon home to clear the sky.

Ten Worlds, Eighty Skies

The first five worlds (Lantern, Cluster, Cairn, Lamps, Comet) teach you how orbits feel. After that things get odd. In Dark Wells the pull reverses and shoves moons outward. Drifters slide rocks across your route. The Narrow Gate squeezes the ring until only a thin gap is left. Companions are lights that circle the flame by themselves, and the Grand Orrery throws four to six moons at you at once. Each sky has a known solution, confirmed by a solver before release, and stars reward finishing in fewer throws.

A Sky A Day, Or A Long Run

The Daily sky is the same for every player and keeps a streak going. Endless ramps from gentle to tricky, hands you two spare throws per sky and remembers your best run. Both pay coins.

The Cabinet

Coins buy planets for your Cabinet: twelve named worlds, from a small rust-coloured rock to a ringed giant and a lava world. Choose the one you want to throw. Prices are fixed and written on the shelf, there are no mystery boxes, and no real money is involved.

The Feel

Each settled moon rings a soft pentatonic note. The sky is modelled in real 3D, motion can be reduced, sound can be muted, and the whole game works offline with no sign-in.
