What’s new
Version 1.3.0 · Updated February 20, 2026
This update expands Pulse Orbit's gameplay with two new power-ups that open up additional tactical possibilities and seamlessly integrate into the existing gameplay flow. The game now fully supports iPad. The display and controls have been optimized for larger screens, making Pulse Orbit comfortably playable on all common iPad models. A special focus of this update is accessibility. With the new audio mode, Pulse Orbit is now playable for blind and visually impaired players for the first time. The implementation was developed in close collaboration with a blind player and iteratively refined based on real feedback. Key game states such as orbit changes, obstacles, radar distance, lives, levels, bosses, and important collectibles are communicated through clear audio feedback. Additionally, an accessible pause gesture has been integrated, allowing the game to be played completely without VoiceOver. The update is rounded off by various stability and performance improvements as well as minor bug fixes.
