Alien Motion Tracker
Read full descriptionHide full description
Authentic alien motion tracker with remote control. Stage iconic sci-fi scenes for your friends. Choose from three tracker styles, each built with careful attention to interface detail, visual effects, motion, and sound. In Solo Mode, tap the screen to place a target, then physically sweep your phone or tablet around you to track it in 360 degrees. In Remote Control Mode, use two devices on the same local Wi-Fi network: one device controls the contacts, the other becomes the tracker. Send targets to your friends, move them around the radar, and stage tense moments in real time. This app is for entertainment and roleplaying immersion. It does not detect real motion.
