Game guide · Arcade survival
Orbital Grove is an endless survival shooter with automatic fire and deliberate movement. Guide the ship around machine-insect waves, collect resources and assemble a build from 18 upgrades before the next boss closes in.
Move with touch, mouse or keyboard while the ship targets and fires automatically. Enemies approach with different speeds and paths. Create open space before a wave surrounds you, and avoid crossing your own escape route.
Defeated machines leave useful resources. Gathering enough unlocks upgrade choices that improve offense, defense or control. The strongest option depends on the current build: damage is valuable, but speed and area coverage can make later swarms manageable.
Boss encounters test movement patterns rather than only raw statistics. Keep a safe orbit, watch for telegraphed attacks and preserve room near the edges. A paused or unfocused tab will not create a hidden time jump when play resumes.
