Orbicle.io is a game where players control orbs on a toroidal map. This means the map repeats infinitely in all directions. The gameplay involves orbs interacting based on their size:
- If a small orb touches a larger orb that is three times its size or larger, it absorbs mass from the larger orb.
- If the larger orb is less than three times the size of the small orb, the smaller orb loses mass to the larger one.
- When a larger orb completely overlaps a smaller orb, it absorbs the smaller orb and assimilates its mass.
Once in the game, this principle should be easier to understand!
Each orb has a rotating "eye" indicating the direction in which it can quickly dash. After using this special ability, players must wait a short while before they can dash again.
The game can host up to 4096 players simultaneously, and everyone can see everyone, ensuring a fair and transparent game. Players can also zoom in or out to get a better view.
Lastly, orbs come in various designs for a diverse appearance.
