BRIGHT RING = PREDICTED CAPTURE
Play ORBIT//HOP — a free one-tap pixel space game
ORBIT//HOP is a timing game built around one decision: when to leave orbit. Your astronaut automatically circles the current planet. Tap at the right angle to launch along the tangent, curve through nearby gravity, and cross a new planet's capture ring before the signal disappears.
A tiny universe that gets meaner as you survive
The opening hops teach the rhythm with forgiving planets. From roughly hop 7 onward, moving asteroid traffic begins crossing transfer lanes. Longer runs escalate into faster asteroid streams, sharp shard storms, small moons with tighter targets, heavy planets with stronger gravity, dangerous stars, and planets surrounded by orbiting moons. The dotted trajectory still previews your current launch direction, but hazards keep moving while you aim.
Your best planet count is stored only in this browser. No account is required, and the game works with a tap, mouse click, or keyboard.
