The soundtrack works perfectly with the game itself.

Lost Orbit can't make up its mind about what it wants to be, and the result is neither a touching tale of survival nor technically-compelling arcade-style action. It's not a bad piece of work and would certainly shine with better integration of its elements, but design confusion is its most notable characteristic, and that's not a good place for a game to be.

Lost Orbit features an endearing story that is wrapped in a wonderful package with great attention to detail. However, even at 40 levels, the game is over too soon and the wonky controls can be problematic for a genre that requires lighting fast timing.

Wickedly tricky game that I enjoyed immensely. The difficulty just makes moment of flow so much more satisfying. Very much like the Alto games.

This game is just navigating your dude to the end of the level and collecting gems. Great looking game but is totally boring. Controls well but it is just boring levels after boring levels. I kept waiting for it to get interesting but it never does. Skip it.

I found my time with Lost Orbit to be enjoyable, and I wish there was more to it outside of the three hour campaign and time trial mode. The fact that I want more speaks highly of Lost Orbit and how it managed to hold my attention all the way through.

Lost Orbit is full of great ideas, and if you know nothing about it, we're sure it's going to be a great surprise.

Lost Orbit tries to be quick and quirky, but fails with the first element. It doesn't force you to go quick, which is a shame for a game where everything is build around speed. Great atmosphere, music, but a fundamental flaw in gameplay.

Speed runners, risk takers, and thrill seekers will all be sorely disappointed to miss out here – but everyone else can pass.
