You set foot on an eerie island full of mechanical scraps. They sent you here. For what purpose?
Something's moving out there. A muffled hum calls you forward. Will you face the island's perils and solve its mystery?
The Orb is a short, immersive horror adventure developed in a week by a team of 3 for the 1-Bit Game Jam 11. Headphones are recommended!

JAM BUILD - KNOWN BUGS
These will be fixed in future uploads:
- Occasionally, looking up at a certain angle may break the player controller's neck. Use P to realign sight, or retry from checkpoint (pause menu) if that doesn't help.
- There is one instance of potential softlock in the building area. If it happens, just retry from checkpoint, and if you're still stuck, speed through the building rather than backing off.
- The camera can become a bit disorienting during cutscenes.
- During the "final scene" (no spoilers), there are sometimes two entities when there should be one, making the challenge more difficult. It's still doable though.
- There are minor quirks like falling through the map, but the checkpoints will help!
