Overview

About this game

Orbital Salvager is a 2D space sim that turns orbital mechanics into a hands-on salvage collection challenge. Plot tight approaches, burn at the right moment, use your tether to pick up orbiting salvage, and bring it safely back to the salvage depot. Just be careful that your contract limits and fuel don't run out!

The tutorial and campaign teach core techniques through hand-crafted missions, while the Daily Run mixes objectives and hazards with procedural generation (and Steam leaderboards!). Master precision spaceflight, scarce fuel, and thread dangerous orbits in a game that rewards planning and execution as much as reflexes.

  • Physics-driven orbital flight with realistic momentum

  • Fuel and hull management

  • Hand-crafted campaign with introductory tutorials

  • Daily procedural challenges and leaderboards

  • Rebindable controls and gamepad support
