Launch the Space Shuttle from Kennedy Space Center to deploy a satellite, rendezvous with the International Space Station or take the futuristic Delta-glider for a tour through the solar system - the choice is yours.

But make no mistake, Orbiter is not a space shooter. The emphasis is firmly on realism, and the learning curve can be steep. Be prepared to invest some time and effort to brush up on your orbital mechanics background. Good starting points are JPL's Basics of Space Flight, and R. Braeunig's Rocket & Space Technology.

It has many nice touches that come out if you take the time to play. Shows how much simple things and bare bones gameplay can still add up to an enjoyable experience.

The environments are strange and unexpected.. Might be a bit challenging for some and frustrating at times, but I enjoyed it overall.

This was made by a single guy using GameMaker, and given away for free! See developer's links below for more info

Well, when I make any game, I make
a game that Id like to see made by someone
else; like partly as just an effort to inspire other people to make little games. I know a lot of people who are really talented, or who have some ambition, but they dont do anything, because they just think they cant....

While there is no set goal in the game, you can travel around as much as you want, cataloging celestial bodies, visiting planets and moons and even exploring them if they have landscape which can be landed on.

A group of bandits known as "Velvet Seaver" had taken control, with the help of a training cavalier named Shaughnessy Van Dersen (under hypnosis), one of only two in Chesserwick who know how to use a power from a set of badge-sized treasures called the "Spirit Child's Crests". Falgryne McCane, also a cavalier and the owner of the crests, was furious at the news, and accused Shaughnessy of stealing them in the first place.

But it doesn't end there, because the leader of Velvet Seaver is promising that the worst is yet to come, only referring to it as "Avelsteck", and at the same time, he has his eye on Martin Hunter as a target, because by collecting 10 of the crests already, Martin has become too involved, and now has an injured leg after being shoved off a bank by a changed prince Gregary.

Sailing on the Rising Zephyr, Shaughnessy takes over the starring role, to travel Chesserwick and find the last 8 crests, and stop what he was forced to start, before it becomes much worse.
