Orbitals This was a fun game made by ex-Hazelight devs. It's in a similar style to like It Takes Two, mandatory co-op, split screen even if you're playing online, etc. It's got a really cool 80's anime aesthetic that it completely nails, and the game is a lot of fun. My partner wasn't a huge fan of It Takes Two because a) the characters were absolutely horrible, and b) the stuff you're doing changes up too often and while they play games they're not a big gamer so by the time they felt like they had a handle on what they were supposed to be doing it would change and they'd be starting from scratch. Orbitals fixes both those problems, the characters are actually likeable and seem like they like each other, and mechanically you only have about four items you use throughout the game, and you get to pick which character uses which one, so my partner was able to get more familiar with them. It's pretty short too, about 5 hours, which makes it easier to actually play through the whole thing. Overall it was a great time. Grade: A
