[PC] DRM-free - Free - From Orbit (was $14.99 US) - Itch.io

470

This game is a lightweight RTS game (with a touch of tower defense).
Great timewaster, especially at this price.

From the website:

In From Orbit you'll manage the crew of a small spaceship. Stranded deep in uncharted space, they need to make their way home. Journey from planet to planet, each procedurally generated with unique environments, challenges, and alien creatures.

Explore
Scout out the richest resources and the deadliest critters, and discover unique challenges and powerful artifacts.

Extract
You're going to need all the Ore and Crystal you can carry if you're going to mount a successful defense or purchase the upgrades you'll need to make it home alive.

Excape
Err… Escape. The resources on each planet won't last forever, but the alien creatures willing to bite your legs off never seem to end, eventually overwhelming even the most stalwart crew. Hold out as long as you can… but don't throw your resources - or the lives of your crew - away to a lost cause. Always be prepared to make a timely exit when things start getting hairy.

Soundtrack

From Orbit's soundtrack was composed by tenfour, and is available for purchase separately. If you've enjoyed the music in the game, please check it out!

Enjoy!

  • Anyone played this? Couldn't find any reviews except the 4 on steam which were very obscure.

    • I have not played it yet but will likely do in the future. Looks pretty good and not too involving.

    Already included in this post of quarantine deals.

    • Did no see it. Sorry.
      Plus apparently, if not in title it is not a duplicate.
      At least two people made separate posts of links I put in my original post and I was told that is fine and title matters.

      • That's right, if the product isn't in the original title then it isn't a duplicate, and that's why I didn't report this post as one. Instead, I made the comment as an acknowledgment of the effort mixgrill had put into his post.

          Personally I think this rule should be changed so that the effort the posters put in is not usurped.
          I wish you a great Sunday. May you stay safe and healthy.

  • Just spent a couple of hours on it. Pretty good, I say. Two thumbs up!
