Evaluation

Orbital Bullet launched into Early Access on April 22, 2021 and received a steady stream of major content updates throughout that period: the Fresh Meat Update (June 24, 2021), the Harvest Season Update (August 26, 2021), the For Eternity Update (October 27, 2021), the Holiday Update (December 9, 2021), and the Upcycling Update (January 27, 2022). The game graduated to its full 1.0 release on March 21, 2022 with the "Coup D'état" update, which added a final planet, new weapons, and additional systems. After launch, the developer shipped one more substantial update — version 1.1.0 ("Over 9000") on November 10, 2022 — which added new enemy modifiers, endgame content, and balance improvements. Since that November 2022 update, there have been no further major content releases. The only developer communication after that date was a June 20, 2024 post announcing participation in a Steam sale event, which carries no indication of new content. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no announced future content, and no roadmap pointing to anything still in development. The one DLC listed — the official soundtrack — was released on May 17, 2022. The developer has not posted any content updates or development news since November 2022, and the most recent contact (June 2024) was promotional only. Given that the last major update shipped on November 10, 2022 and the gap to today (June 25, 2026) far exceeds the historical update cadence, the game appears to have reached the end of its post-launch content cycle with the 1.1.0 update.

KILL. DIE. MODIFY.

Orbital Bullet is a fast paced 360° action-platformer with rogue-lite elements, where all actions take place in a circular pattern. Fight your way through a variety of procedural planets and use body modifications, crafting, upgrades and heavy weaponry.

TRIGGERFINGER LICKIN’ GOOD ROGUE-LITE ACTION

360° hard-boiled gunplay: Projectiles traverse in a 360°-degree pattern allowing for a new unrivaled gunplay feeling.

“Just one-more-run”: Procedurally generated planets, mean enemies, bad-ass bosses, a diverse weaponry and game changing upgrades guarantee addictive gameplay.

Make the most satisfying long-range curved snipes you have ever done or blast and shred enemies with a load of your hyper shotgun. Or are you more of a rocket launcher fella?

Fast paced unrelenting pixel style-action: each death is permanent, but let’s be honest, dying is part of the fun.

A DEATH-DEFYING PROGRESSION SYSTEM

Having a hard time making progress? Don’t worry, we got you covered! After each death you will be able to spend Nanobytes to receive permanent upgrades and skills.

How about a bigger Medi-Backpack or extra Shield to last a little bit longer?

Or activate the Combo System, to tremendously increase the pacing of the game and receive certain multipliers to currency drops and EXP.

Don’t like your starting weapon? Unlock a new more powerful one right from the start and get your revenge.

UNLIMITED FRAG-TASTIC REPLAYABILITY

Build your own custom skill tree with our Dynamic Skill Trees! Make clever decisions to empower skills and reach new power spikes while the tree changes every time you play.

“We need guns, lots of guns.” Unlock, find, or buy more than 42 different guns, weapon upgrades and various power-enhancing perks that will change the way you’ll play.

Unlock four different classes to choose from, like the turret-carrying Engineer or the fire-fueled Hellion, each with a different skill tree.

Are you the type of person who enjoys some good ol’ pain? Good, because we got a Streak System that will make the game considerably more difficult (coupled with a few other surprises) with each completed run, until your streak ends. Don’t worry though, you will have plenty opportunity to die.

A HEAD-BLASTING SOUNDTRACK

Orbital Bullet features a pounding electronica soundtrack composed by Juha Korpelainen & Niilo Takalainen. If you die a lot, at least you can listen to some catchy tunes.
