About OddOrb

You command a small team of orb units on a procedurally generated hex map. Dig out new ground, place cannon and hydro towers, and gather energy charges while a swarm of self-reproducing creatures closes in. The aim is to reach the charge target with your orbs still alive.

The creatures breed and evolve by themselves, driven by genes, so the swarm keeps growing the longer a round runs. Towers are your defense, and they can be upgraded or sold as the situation changes. Trees can be dug out to clear space.

Play Now opens a short guided tutorial on the Arena map. After that you can start a Random Map skirmish. A session runs about half an hour. The game includes fog of war, procedural music, saves and replays, and it supports co-op and multiplayer over LAN.

Select units with a click or a box drag, then press Q or W to build a cannon or hydro tower. Right-click to move or attack-move. Press F1 in game to see every control.
