Orbiter is a game.

The planet rotates, enemies spawn around it, and the buildings YOU placed are defending it.

So yeah, a tower-defense basically.

PLZ READ:

I encourage you to play through to day 10. The first 5 or so are simple. It starts to progress logically around here. I couldn't figure out how to get around it.

CONTROLS:

Mouse:

Left mouse - Place unit

Right mouse - Start round, when prompted

Middle mouse - Rotate planet (note: not necessary to play game, just a neat debug thing, for the gears in the center, I left in)

Move mouse over unit - Shows information about the unit

Scroll wheel - Change selected unit

NOTE: If you don't have a middle mouse button, don't sweat it: UP and DOWN arrow keys do the same as the scroll wheel.

Thanks for playing, and happy 10th anniversary. Good luck.
