Minimalism that works
So cool. The gameplay feels fresh and unique. It’s a very soothing and cerebral kind of action game. Love it. Multitouch helps this game in a nice way.
I’ve had this game for years
It’s amazing honestly . Admire simplicity. The one who admire is complicity is a dummy but one who admires simplicity is a genius.
Love it, make more!
A new classic! Deep gameplay thru the novel tractor beam mechanic. High replay value. Simple to learn. Difficult to master. Many play modes. Loving this. Thank you!
My favorite game in the App Store. A modern classic
This game is very underrated. I’m so happy it’s still available after 9 years. It’s also apparently been updated with new features like a timed mode.
I’ve had many apps and games on my phone, but this one has been a staple. Solid gameplay, retro graphics. It’s a modern classic. I wish more games were like this one. I’m a sucker for vector graphics look and feel.
It’s more fun than actually playing an Asteroids clone on the iPhone because of the control scheme.
I just wish there were more modes... the new timed mode is a step in the right direction. Maybe some day the developer could include a weapons mode or a rival mode where there’s an enemy spacecraft? Maybe a hyperspace button that can be used once or twice to save you from collision? Or a shield? Or alternative ships, like ones that look like the old cinematronics space war ships? It’s encouraging that after 9 years the developer is still updating this.
This game should not be abandoned. I hope to see continued support for it and who knows.. maybe now after 9 years a Tractor Beam 2 is in order.
If you like retro games, play this game!

Interesting Gameplay
I'm a real fan of this. Once you get to grips with the controls you can find yourself soaring through the asteroid field with ease.
Excellent that it's been updated for 64bit use too!
