About Orbit Hop
Orbit Hop is an endless runner set on a tiny round planet covered in little pine forests. Your runner never stops, and the planet keeps turning under their feet.
Rocks can be jumped. Tall crystals can't, so you switch lanes to get past them. Wooden arches have to be slid under, and boulders roll across the path, so watch which lane they're heading for.
Power-ups float along the track: a magnet pulls in nearby stars, a shield saves you from one hit, and 2× doubles the stars you collect. Music and speed both build the longer you survive.
Every run counts toward three missions. Finishing them earns saved stars, which unlock new runner colours.
How to play
| Action | Keyboard & mouse | Touch |
|---|---|---|
| Change lane | ← → or A D | Swipe left or right |
| Jump | Space or ↑ | Tap |
| Slide (or drop fast in the air) | ↓ or S | Swipe down |
Scoring
You earn points for distance run. Each star adds 10, multiplied by your star combo (up to ×3). Jumping a rock, sliding under an arch and close calls add bonus points. Your best score, saved stars and unlocked runners are saved on your device.
Tips
- Crystals can't be jumped. When you see one, change lanes early.
- Swipe down in the middle of a jump to drop fast and slide as you land.
- Grab stars in quick succession to keep your combo going.
- Switching out of a lane just before an obstacle counts as a close call and is worth bonus points.
- Check your missions before a run so you know what to aim for.
