About
Orbit Rush is a chaotic 2-4 player couch multiplayer game in which each player controls an asteroid and navigates through a solar system at increased speed. The aim of the game is to collide with opposing players with as much speed and mass as possible in order to destroy them. Speed can only be built up by orbiting planets and mass can be gained by eating up smaller asteroids flying around. The player who has more mass and speed in a collision destroys the opponent and receives a point. Whoever has collected the most points after 5 minutes is crowned champion of the universe.
How to play
The main goal of the game is to destroy other players by flying or dashing into them. If they have less speed and mass then you, you will destroy them and gain a point. But be aware, if they have more speed and mass than you they will have a red exclamation mark above them to warn you that you should definitely avoid them!
How to gain speed/mass
You can gain speed by orbiting around planets. The longer you orbit, the more speed you get.
You can gain mass by collecting the small asteroids that are flying around the map.
Things to avoid
The sun in the center will not only destroy you but also subtract one of your collected points.
You should also avoid orbiting for too long on planets as they will slowly pull you towards them, destroying you and subtracting one of your points.
Map border
There are several black holes positioned at the border of them. They will absorb you and throw you back into the map to prevent you from leaving it.
