About This Game
Designed for groups of 2 to 12, 12 orbits is a local multiplayer game that works on virtually any platform you own, whether it's a desktop, laptop, or tablet. While extra controllers are supported for comfort, they aren't strictly necessary. The game is incredibly easy to set up, taking just seconds even for the maximum number of players, with rounds lasting approximately five minutes. It offers a blend of friendly competition and controlled chaos that is simple to learn yet provides depth for long-term entertainment.
Players can select from four distinct game modes, two of which are team-based, each offering a unique style of play. Every mode scales dynamically to fit the current number of players, allowing you to start with a small group and add others as they arrive.
▶ Arena
Claim space by filling the area with your colored spheres while dodging opponents'. This bullet hell style becomes increasingly intense as the match progresses.
▶ Multiball (Teams)
Similar to football but featuring volatile goals and multiple balls that shift colors unpredictably during play.
▶ Trails
Gather spheres to extend your length, then obstruct your rivals' paths. You can also launch spheres at distant opponents to catch them off guard.
▶ Blizzard (Teams)
Fend off a barrage of incoming spheres and deflect them back to the opposing side.
My device only supports 3-5 simultaneous inputs. Will this work?
Absolutely. 12 orbits requires just one button per player and never demands button mashing or holding, making simultaneous presses rare even with 12 players.
Is full controller support available?
The entire game is playable with a gamepad, though you must press 'Enter' once at the launcher, technically limiting it to partial controller support.
Is there a colorblind mode?
Yes, utilizing black and white symbols to accommodate all forms of color blindness.
Does it support One Switch inputs?
Yes, including full menu navigation.
