01
Deterministic physics
Every simulation step is fixed-point, pre-seeded, and yields the same result on both devices. No server authority. No desync. The puck is where you think it is.

COLD ORBIT
BETA · 38,412 MATCHES / / / two-player · zero-g · 42ms ping
Physics is
the second player.
Cold Orbit is a best-of-one duel in zero gravity. Two pucks. One anchor point. One thumb each. Every match is a new physics puzzle — deterministic, rollback-networked, 42-millisecond average ping. Lose and you re-queue instantly. Best-of-one is the whole product.

Determinism, rollback, and a Rust relay.
02
Rollback netcode
Inputs are rolled back and replayed when late frames arrive. Sixteen frames of prediction, two frames of correction, zero frames of lag for the player.
03
Rust matching relay
A single Rust binary per region does the matchmaking and relay. Forty-two-millisecond average ping across the US-Europe ocean. It fits in 11MB.
