Orbital Bullet Switch NSP Free Download Romslab Here is the thing, I’m a sucker for roguelikes/roguelites. It might be the masochist in me, but I really enjoy going through the same challenges over and over again to get better. It’s a harrowing experience and just like real life – I love it! Some of my favorite games include Hades, Rogue Knight, and Crypt of the Necrodancer. Naturally, I got super excited when I saw Orbital Bullet, a roguelite shootemup in 360°! Keep in mind that at the time of writing this Orbital Bullet review, the game is still in early access. ROMSLAB.COM Best Switch Games

Procedurally generated planets, mean enemies, bad-ass bosses, a diverse weaponry and game changing upgrades guarantee addictive gameplay.

Orbital Bullet’s shtick is that all the action takes place on a 360 circular field. You, enemies, and bullets spin round and round in an otherwise normal shooter/platformer setting. But there is a lot more to Orbital Bullet than that. Like any other roguelite, the game features a progression system using “nanobytes” that reset on every new run. And although there is a huge emphasis on the “kill. die. modify” ethos of the game, a lot of the progression depends on you getting better at the game. Still, it’s nice to have loads of weapons, perks, and upgrades that give you a lot to look forward to.

Is the World Flat or Round?

The game also features vaguely-defined classes that provide you with different perks and upgrades. Of course, it is up to you which class to upgrade to match your playstyle. Play through procedurally generated levels, different worlds, and bosses of varying degrees of difficulty until the game breaks you or you break it. Most games with a concept as unique as Orbital Bullet stop at the idea. But this game is so much more than just spinning around on a record. Not saying the concept was not good or wasn’t executed properly, but even without the 360 playing field Orbital Bullet would have been a fun rougelike. What Remains of Edith Finch

The roguelike chassis of Orbital Bullet is incredibly solid. The skill tree and upgrade system of the game may not be breaking any new grounds, but for a returning roguelite fan they were great. The upgrades themselves vary from decent to good with nothing that breaks the progression without a proportionate amount of effort required. The guns are also a lot of fun, and there were a lot of them. The sheer variety makes it so you can have a favorite weapon, but still enjoy each run whether you get it or not.

On a functional level, every enemy is distinct, as is every gun and each of the four player classes.

The visuals of the game are also something I enjoyed quite a lot. This dead-cells-meets-risk-of-rain aesthetic worked especially well with Orbital Bullet. For a game as tight as this, the usage of colors and effects make the difference between immersive and what-the-hell-is-happening. And indeed, the game’s colors are striking enough for you to know what is what and it doesn’t completely rely on flashy effects littering your screen. Try as I might to not judge the game for its early access status, it can interfere too much with the experience. All things considered, Orbital Bullet clearly suffers the symptoms of the early access syndrome. WWE 2K18 Nintendo 

Fight your way through a variety of procedural planets and use body modifications, crafting, upgrades and heavy weaponry.

While the gameplay is a whole lot of fun, it is more apt to call it promising than great. For every great feature I enjoyed, I have a “but” or an “if only” lurking in the back of my head. Movement feels great but jumping and rolling feel a little ridiculous. The gunplay is amazing, but each gun takes too long to unlock (I finished the main game and I had only unlocked 5 extra weapons). The visuals are great but the environment can feel a little bare. The list goes on and on. Risk of rain mixed with contra on trippy 360 platforms, what’s not to like? Orbital Bullet is a smashing concept that is executed really well. Any roguelike/lite such as myself will find hours of fun and frustration (the good kind) between the folds of this hidden gem.

Enemies are animated well enough that many of them have a specific animation as a tell for when they attack.

Yes, some screws need to be tightened and edges filed, but there is something here that will appeal to most audiences. I would definitely recommend Orbital Bullet, and I will personally probably revisit the game again when it makes its official debut. Again, this Orbital Bullet review was written for the early access version of the game. I’m looking forward to what the developers will do with this great concept and base. If you’d like to check it for yourself make sure to check out Orbital Bullet on Steam. Off the top of my head, I can think of only a single game that uses perspective the same way that Orbital Bullet does, and Fez was a puzzle game about cubes rather than an action game about cylinders.

Orbital Bullet is a fast paced 360° action-platformer with rogue-lite elements, where all actions take place in a circular pattern.

Every single surface in Orbital Bullet is a ring. Moving left or right lets you freely move around this ring, and sometimes there are inner or outer rings you can switch between. Your projectiles curve to follow these rings as well. It’s very rare for there to be anything in the very center of these rings, leaving most of them hollow. This is important because it means you can see the entire floor you are on at all times, including enemies as far away from you as possible. And since, again, your projectiles follow the ring as well, long-range weaponry can eliminate enemies that far away, or even by going all the way around the ring and hitting something directly behind you. This is a legitimate strategy against shielded enemies or enemies chasing you, by the way, not just a neat trick shot. Xenoblade Chronicles 3
