Our take on Orbital Invaders
The page calls Orbital Invaders a spaceship simulator, but its described play centers on arcade combat: shooting enemies, using limited bombs and weapons, and collecting points. The simulator label therefore suggests a broader piloting focus than the stated activities establish.
What is Orbital Invaders?
Orbital Invaders is a 3D arcade shooter in which a spaceship pilot defends the orbit around different planets.
Fly through multiple worlds, destroy asteroids and enemies, and face bosses. Threats include spaceships, mines, missiles and space worms. The game provides three reserve lives, laser and plasma weapons, three atomic bombs, and a speed boost for emergencies. Collect points to gain an extra life, and unlock additional worlds as play progresses. The vendor presents the game as suited to short sessions and says Xbox, PS DualShock and other controllers are supported.
