Orbital
A downloadable game
Orbital is a two player game about the relationship between two people - the lone inhabitant of an observational satellite and their main contact planetside - over the course of an orbital period.
Choose your role - Satellite or Observer - and use the scene prompts to play out the orbital period. Then end the game by answering the most important question of all: "What happens next?"
Orbital was written for the Ad Astra Jam, hosted by Kienna Shaw, Dylan Grinder, and deathbymage.

I'm working on getting this issue fixed, as I don't know what is causing it. The full game is currently posted on my Twitter (@meghanlynnFTW) if you would like a copy in the meantime!
Hello,
The issue has been resolved and the game is available for purchase and download!
Anyone with close Internet friends or has been in a long distance relationship knows how Orbital feels when you play it. It's a one-page RPG, but each of the scenes asks an important question that creates a whole, deep conversation between two people who are intimately linked but astronomical units apart.
