Description

Your engines are down. Use your tractor beams to move.

"Some of the most fun we've had with $0.99 on the iPhone and we still can't put it down" - Slide To Play

Tractor beam is a powerfully simple and addictive arcade game inspired by the classics. Unarmed and out of fuel, to survive you must slingshot your ship through an asteroid field using only your tractor beam. But the beam will also send the asteroids on a collision course with your ship, making for a unique challenge as you press onward to earn points.

Tractor Beam can be played in either portrait or landscape orientation, and multi-touch gameplay allows for more than one beam and complex strategies. The procedurally generated background music is never the same twice, or choose to listen to your own music from within the iPod application.

- Classic arcade look and feel
- Multi-touch gameplay
- Three levels of difficulty
- Dynamic music is created on-the-fly
- Allows for music from other applications

Peter Wilson ,

nice, novel idea.

I love retro-style games like this, and this one could've been an awesome hit game in the early 80's. I love the controls and the asteroid physics. I thought they were really well done and provide a nice challenge. This is a great little time waster.

Retro goodness

I scour the store for retro gems and I unearthed a beauty here. Fittingly it is a stripped down, complex and atmospheric little game. It is perfectly suited to touch controls too. Drift through the void of space negotiating asteroid fields. Great soundtrack. The whole experience evocative of a cult 70's sci fi film - think Dark Star or Silent Running.

Nice...

If you are/were a fan of arcade games like asteroids then this will be a nice purchase.

The innovative controls are difficult to begin with, but soon you will have mastered them...
