The same thing happened when I searched for it after pressing the app update would not work. I found this latest version by searching itunes for "bitforge," and was then able to install anew directly over wifi without issue. The soundtrack has changed.
I'm happy this great game is still being updated! That said, I REALLY DISLIKE the new soundtrack. It's missing the "hook" somehow that kept me playing for hours. Now, it just grates. PLEASE bring back the old sound. At least as an option. Or even a downloadable MP3.
The sufi-ish trill being replaced with a tick-tock sound apparently recorded from a mechanical pendular metronome does make it harder to forget the passage of time while playing. There should be an option to turn the original loop back on, I agree.
Agree, I'd like the old tune back as well! Oh, and while we're at it... it's really great that Orbital has been updated for Retina display graphics, but why is there no true OS4 multitasking (i.e. fast app switching) ability? We're in 2011, you know...
One of those apps I have always kept on all my iOS devices, the latest update sure looks sharp on my 6+ !! What's new We are celebrating 5 years of Orbital and were happy to present a small but much anticipated update with a range of improvements. The newest version of Orbital displays nicely on high resolutions and supports current 16:9 screens natively. And since it is built as a universal App it runs better on the iPad than ever. Finally you can again connect Orbitals Leaderboard to Facebook to have your private and compete with your friends in all game modes. Thank you for playing Orbital have fun!
One of the few games that has never been removed from my device. Been looking forward to a retina update to this. Great job and thanks!!
Big thanks for the update! A great game--appealingly simple but great-looking, and with just enough variety of game modes to stay interesting for a long time.
