## What is Interceptor?

Interceptor is iPad Only

Incoming!  

Defend the planet in this retro-style vector-graphics arcade game.  Tower defence meets missile command and space invaders with a twist (!).  

Monitor your 360-degree radar scanners and coordinate your weapon turrets to intercept and destroy incoming enemies.  Remember, make sure you're watching your back!

Upgrade your four weapon batteries to stay ahead of the bad guys.  Each weapon system has pros and cons and you must decide which to use against which targets.  Choose wisely.  Suffering too many enemy hits will damage your systems and lead to your ultimate defeat.  

Use your Auto-Turrets when things get busy!

Interceptor is endless fun that gets tougher and tougher.  How long can you last under the barrage?!  Defeat is inevitable.. or is it?

What are you waiting for, Chief?  We need you!
