Be Warned! this is packaged with the sequel. And they force you to play through this game again before you can play the sequel.
Skip this game and buy the sequel if your interested.
What a gem. Everyone who loves fast-paced sci-fi-action with a lovely narrator and incredible music must play this game. Even deaths are not punishing, but encouraging. Sorry, dear devs, that I've waited so long and only bought it for one euro. You clearly should have deserved more. I'll make up for it. Promised.
Lost Orbit isn't the most memorable of adventures. You barrel through its levels quickly, and unless you want to try for faster time trial scores, there's not a lot to come back for. Still, the rush of speed and the simple charms of the animation and narration make this game a blast while it lasts.
Just finished the game and here it is folks. This game above anything speaks on a level of Daoism. If you want a game where it makes you question yourself in this universe, please buy this game. The sidekick/narrator has this calm voice that should be giving lectures at a planetarium. The game itself is stunning and it's something that you would want as a free floating mode and just cruise through the cosmos. Onward to the game-play. The control's are what you would expect in a null gravity environment. Remember, you are a spaceman doing an EVA with a single point thrust source. You will have directional lag, so don't expect pin point control. The "warp zones" are everywhere, but that does not mean you have to use them. The walls are hazards, the space is a hazard, everything is a hazard. Everything is trying to kill you, even you are trying to kill you. That's the charm, picture the movie "Gravity"...but better... I will not give away the story, but I will say this about this added feature. The music... If any of you have ever played the game Rochard, the music made it top tier. This game should be talked about more and the music is the X-factor behind it. Some levels, the music makes your pulse pumping, and you just want to throttle full speed and damn any hazards. Other levels, the music dials you back. The composer, you sir...I tip my hat to you. I got this game during a sale, but knowing what I know about it now, I would have paid full price. I will be playing the 2nd game of this title in the next 48 hours. If they ever make a 3rd, I would sell my kidney to be one of the beta tester's on it.
really fun game with cool ideas and mechanics. i watched sodapoppin play it on twitch but didnt really pay attention I expected it to be some arcade-type game. I was not expecting it to have a pretty intimate story behind it as well. i caught it on mega-sale for like $1, but it's very good. havent finished it yet so I cant say for sure if theres $12 worth of content, but it definitely has me surprised so far.
This isn't usually the type of game I go for, originally was shown it by a friend and was intrigued by the narrative and the music. Bought it and really enjoyed it just for the story telling as you play through! I will be playing the new version when it is released in July.
It's only 3 bucks...but it only lasts 2 hours. Barely. Nice distraction. Basically you glide through levels and evade obstacles, hitting speed boosts, etc. Most levels take around 2 to 3 minutes. You gather stuff to upgrade your suit, though that's rather inconsequential. Knowing what I know now I would only invest in gaining resources easier and upgrading my boost. Speaking of which...there is a boost in the game and you can upgrade the capacity, sadly this is never really replenished in game...only a minuscule amount, before you're back to the minimum, which you can use for like 1 second.
At times the game is just overwhelmingly fast and bright, but I'm also getting older...am slightly sick, etc. and I still beat it within 2 hours...sooo. Yeah.
TL;DR LOST ORBIT is an aesthetically pleasing adventure that's great for time killing or leaderboard chasing.
LOST ORBIT is one of the most beautiful games I have ever played. The graphics and art are no less than stunning, and the music and dialogue are both amazing as well. The gameplay can be challenging at first, especially using keyboard and mouse, but by the end of the first level you will get it.
Pros
- Beautiful graphics
- Excellent Soundtrack
- Good Story
- Challenging and fast-quick thinking is key in LOST ORBIT
- Voice acting/dialogue is some of the best I've heard in a video game
Cons
- Optimization issues-expected from small devs, but still worth a mention
- Kinda short- around 4 hours of gameplay
[*]Medals system is kinda weird-some of the higher medal times are in seconds, not minutes, and others are very punishing
Overall
Overall I would give this game 8/10. It's an exciting, fast-paced exploration game where in most cases, timing is key. It's a challenging community platform where you'll redo a level a hundred times just to get the top 10 on the leaderboard. It's a gorgeous depiction of space that will have you stopping the gameplay just to get that perfect screenshot. It's a great-sounding soundtrack paired with incredibly well done voice acting. But at the same time, it's at times unoptimized. It's not the longest game out there. It's got some incredibly high standards.
Verdict: Recommended!
EDIT: I'm changing my thumbs down cause the game deserves some credit. Although very short, it's a lot of fun to play while enjoying the amazing soundtrack. I'd recommend getting on a sale bacause it's really not very long at all. Original review below still applies:
Don't get it for mac!!! Seems kindda fun though
Well, sorry for spoiling, but I beat the game in 4 hours. I gotta say though, the experience was worth it. This game tells a really cool story and has really polished gameplay. It is also somewhat challenging and not just, faceroll boring.
TL DR: Totally worth a buy.
A cute and rarther enjoyable game if you are ever looking for just a fun and not to long single player game this is it!
This game is a masterpiece. From the encapselating story to the beautifully deep space environments. You feel for Harrison as you navigate through the universe. Throughout the game they hit you with a wonderful story told by someone following you, which adds so much to the games feel. If you have a few hours to kill pick this up and you wont stop smiling! Happy Orbiting!
Game is unplayable on Ubuntu 15.04 with triple head monitor setup (3 vertical monitors 1200x1920 each).
The menu is stretched like a horizontal slut and nearly unusable. The game starts but graphics are mostly placed outside of view port. Seems as if this game has never been tested at 3600x1920 resolution. Unfortunately it cannot be switched to windowed mode or to lower its resolution,
Before LO, I played train valley demo which looks and runs just great on triple head setup.
Did anybody test LO on 4k monitors?
Please fix this issue so that I can write a positive feedback.
it would be nice to hear the smart ass coments of the drone that follows you around, i cant hear him over the music and theres only a master volume control. kinda lame
Serious some of the best and most frustrating fun I've had in years, this feel exactly like an oldschool snes game.
Lost Orbit's a fun, twitchy dodge-em-up that sees a lone astronaut and his robot sidekick hurtling through space in search of a way home. Or maybe just in search of a way to not die every 15 seconds. Trust me, that'll be happening a lot. And whilst it may not sound like an attractive prospect, every time it happened I found myself immediately mashing the retry button without even a care - it's that sort of die-horribly/get-back-up-again gameplay loop that Super Meat Boy perfected.
It feels like a lot of love and care was poured into this game. The visuals and music are top-notch and the controls feel like they've been tuned to perfection. I do wish it was longer, or had something to keep me revisiting it beyond just honing my times, and that's my only real quibble. If the preview videos leave you thinking that it might be something you'll enjoy, the chances are high that you will.
This is a pretty fun little Trials like game. Dodge the stuff and get to the end as fast as you can. It doesn't try to do too much and is overall a tight experience. I really enjoyed the music and mostly felt that deaths were my fault so you don't feel cheated when you die other than a few rare circumstances. For those curious regarding game length there are around 40 stages and it took me just over 2 hours to beat. If you're curious regarding the time trial mode there are ghosts as well as world rank leaderboards to compete on. The only thing I wasn't sure about in the time trial section is I was still prompted to buy upgrades so that could be a bit tedious if you don't want to collect all the resources to level up (you can easily skip the bomb and brake).
My only complaint regarding mechanics is that the mouse cursor sometimes still shows up in game for cutscenes (which I believe is a Unity issue), and you need to make sure only one controller is plugged in if you want rumble (I had one Xbox 360 controller, and one Xbox 1 controller plugged in and was able to play with the Xbox 1 controller, but rumble was on the 360 pad).
Pretty solid overall and was worth US $10.79 to me.
I wasn't expecting much of Lost Orbit to be honest... I bought thinking it could be fun for a little while...
And indeed, the game is fun, you fly, you die... you try to speed through debris, you die, you race, you die...
Well, you die quite a lot in this game !
But outside of the gameplay, it's not what really caught me in the game, what caught me was the story of an unlikely friendship between man and machine !
The story is told from the eyes of the machine yet you control the man who never say a single word by himself but you kind of grow fond of the probe following you and telling the story.
It's the only thing that made me finish the game so damn fast ! I always wanted to know what the little probe would tell about our journey together and our growing friendship... I got really attached to the probe and I was sad the game ended... I wish the probe would talk more than it does already because I felt the level was empty when there weren't any speech.
The voice actor is quite amazing, he does a really good job and this is what gave the game it's beauty and the will to go on to the very end.
In all, this is a pretty little gem for just 10euros (or your regional equivalent), gameplay is fast yet relaxing, there isn't too much content (story and time trials), the great music goes from calm and relaxing to a more upbeat rythm and the story is really well made yet not too consistent.
There is really nothing to be upset about this game, it delivers right what it promise and probably a little bit more than expected.
I played this game at PAX East this past April and enjoyed it so I ended up following through and purchasing the game. I absolutely love it. I find everything about it great:
-Going at high speeds through pulsars and gas giants and gaining even more speed
-Dodging obstacles left and right and zipping through debris
-The unique mechanic of being able to go from one side of the screen to the other
-The variety in solar systems (Thier colors, debris, and art style)
-Beautiful art style that is almost like a cartoon but is really quite amazing
-The music in this game is absolutely amazing and fits it so well
One thing that I'm really enjoying about this game is the humble story line. I find myself happy whenever a segment of narration is about to occur, not only because the voice acting is phenomenal, but because the story is emotional and interesting and I find myself wanted to know what Atley has to say about Harrison and his humanly ways.
I think that one of the reasons I was compelled to purchase the game was because I am very into anything astronomy. I think that this game stimulated that passion in a Sci-Fi sort of way. It isn't realistic game and it obviously isn't meant to be but that is what makes it so enjoyable.
I highly reccomend this game to just about everyone, especially if you enjoy fast paced Dodge' Em Up games although I'm not a huge Dodge Em' Up guy but I think this game is spectacular.
There is one and only one negative thing I have to say about this game, and that is the shortness. but other than that its amazing
Once again I recommend this game to anyone, Its reasonably priced and is so much fun. Thanks for reading guys!
If I ever end up lost in space I hope to have as much fun as Harrison does on his journey through deep space. This game is absolutely stunning. Fast paced, beautiful art style, intricate level design, and top notch audio. Seriously, in space no one can hear you scream, but you can definitely hear all of the sweet beats this game has. Altogether, this game is a great deal of fun. Anyone who is looking for a few hours of quality entertainment at an affordable price should definitely check out LOST ORBIT.
PS: Best Skeleton Flight Simulator
