Orbit Beats is a rhythm game that tests your timing, reflexes, and musical sense. You control two orbiting planets (Fire and Ice), tapping or clicking in sync with the beat to guide them along twisting paths without falling off. One mistimed tap—and the balance breaks, ending your run.
The game plays out in your browser—no downloads needed—and stands out thanks to its minimal controls and challenging rhythmic gameplay.
The entire game revolves around a one-button mechanic: every tap moves the planets one step along the path. Miss the beat, and you’ll lose balance
Paths twist and turn—straight segments demand steady taps, while curves require precise timing shifts.
As you advance, levels get more complex in shape and rhythm, pushing your ability to sync perfectly.
Some versions offer Practice Mode or latency calibration, so you can fine-tune timing depending on your device.
