✦ One enemy. One power-up. Unlimited XORBIUS. ✦

XORBIUS is a lightning-fast minimalist twin¹ stick shooter that begins like a classic arcade game and evolves into a chaotic but elegant bullet hell. It is the Dark Souls of Asteroids-likes.

XORBIUS is fun for the whole family:

  • simple to learn, impossible to master
  • highly tuned and addictive gameplay
  • local and online leaderboards
  • an original space jazz soundtrack
  • a chic sense of style
  • 150+ tips, tricks, fun facts, and quotes

A typical game of XORBIUS lasts only a few minutes, so it's perfect for one quick game on the bus² or an hour-long score chasing marathon before bed.

¹ Fraternal twins.

² XORBIUS is not responsible if "one quick game" turns into ten and you miss your stop.

  • First published 02/10/2026, last updated 03/09/2026.
  • This game's developer created it without the use of generative AI.
  • This game contains no profanity, violence, or explicit content. However, the tips and tricks presented on the Game Over screen sometimes feature irreverent humor or absurd innuendo (e.g., "XORBIUS is allowed to say the F word", "XORBIUS disavows the actions of Ted Kaczynski", "XORBIUS will no longer comment on the events of November 22, 1963").
  • This game is a fast-paced and challenging shooter which requires using the d-pad and crank simultaneously, calling for more speed and precision as higher scores are reached. An alternative crank-free control scheme is offered when the crank is docked, in which case the A and B buttons are used for turning instead.
