Create your account

Your Orbismo account is separate from any individual world — you sign in once, then create or join as many worlds as you like. Here’s the path from sign-up to your first world.

1. Choose how to sign up

On the sign-up screen, pick whichever method you prefer:

• Email and password
• Magic link — sign in with a one-time link sent to your inbox
• Passkey — your device’s biometrics or a hardware key
• Google, Discord, or GitHub — use an account you already have

You can add more methods to the same account later, so the choice isn’t permanent. For details on each option, see Sign-in methods.

2. Verify your email

If you signed up with email and password, we’ll send a verification link. Click it to confirm your address — you’ll need to verify before you can use the account. (Signing up with a passkey or an OAuth provider verifies you automatically.)

3. Confirm your profile

The first time you sign in, you’ll confirm your display name. This is the name your collaborators see on a shared world, so pick something they’ll recognize.

4. Accept the terms

You’ll be asked to agree to the terms of service before continuing. This is a one-time step.

5. Land on your starting point

With that done, you arrive at the onboarding screen, where you can:

• Create your first world, or
• Join an existing world if a teammate has sent you an invite.

Securing your account

Once you’re in, you can add two-factor authentication (TOTP) for an extra layer of protection, along with backup codes in case you lose your authenticator. You can also review where you’re signed in from. See Sign-in methods and Sessions and devices.
