Mastertronic have revealed that a number of new updates are available for their gravity simulator, 0rbitalis.
The new updates include friend leaderboards and histograms to let players compare score distribution at a glance. Quality settings and zoom effects have also been refined to create a more streamlined experience, and there are new ambient soundtracks from Doseone. Think you’ve mastered your orbit? Ten new levels have now been added to increase the challenge! Developer Alan Zucconi stated:
It’s hard to describe the amount of positive feedback I’ve had from the community so far. Seeing people playing for days, trying to achieve a stable orbit, has been the biggest reward for me. This is why the update brings new features such as friends leaderboards and histograms. I also showed the game to the developers of Kerbal Space Program, resulting in a secret level which reproduces the Kerbol System, The update also features homages to other big indie titles such as Robin Arnott’s SoundSelf. I am looking forward to hearing the players’ feedback and I really can’t wait for the next update.
Stuart Morton, Producer at Mastertronic, added:
0RBITALIS has been going down a storm with the thousands of people who have so far picked it up and this update by Alan is the result of their feedback. The Steam Early Access community is a great help for developers and I have no doubt 0RBITALIS will continue to improve.
