Switch while the next barrier is still ahead of your orb. Repeated tapping can cancel the move you intended. Read the open side, commit to it, then prepare for the next switch.
An arcade gravity switching game
Orbit Switch is a free online arcade game about choosing when to change direction. One tap reverses gravity, sending your orb toward the opposite surface. Read the next barrier, identify the open side, and make the switch before the obstacle reaches you.
Commit to the next move
Polarity introduces the alternating barriers. Alternator and Flux move faster and give you less time to cross safely. Rapid repeated tapping can undo the move you wanted, so a clear decision often works better than more inputs. Optional golden shards offer an extra collection challenge on every route.
Keyboard and touch controls use the same one-press action. Checkpoint practice and slower training speeds help you learn a sequence before attempting a full normal run. If you prefer holding a control instead of tapping, try Vector Flight. For switch timing, see our gravity switching guide.

Before your next run
Who created these games?
These are independently developed browser games with custom stages, procedural visuals, and synthesized music. They are not official versions of another game.
Do I need to install anything?
No. The games run in a modern browser with JavaScript enabled. There are no plugins, accounts, or installers.
Can I play on a phone?
Yes. Tap the play area or use its touch control. For Vector Flight, keep your finger down to climb and release to descend.
How does practice work?
Practice places checkpoints automatically as you progress. A crash restarts at the last checkpoint. Practice results do not replace your normal-mode best.
