Take on the role of a space fighter pilot and save the Earth from the invading Aliens. A short, six level action-arcade game, Galaxy Blaster is a great game to play while on the bus, during lunch, or waiting for the TV dinner cooking in the microwave. You'll get to battle against five different types of enemy ships before reaching the Mother Ship. Do you have what it takes to save your friends and family from certain doom? Galaxy Blaster is an arcade style, space shooter. You control your ship by tilting your device in the direction you want your ship to move (don't try "steering" like a racing game). Press the red button to shoot the enemies and the green button to activate your shields. Shields have a limited, recharging power supply, so keep an eye on the meter. While battling the Aliens, you will sometimes see a colored orb floating by. If you are able to capture this orb, you will be rewarded with one of the following power-up bonuses: Orange - Smart Bomb that will destroy all enemies currently on the screen Blue - One extra life Green - Shields bonus that lasts approximately ten seconds *Before playing, please press the settings gear and calibrate the game for your device. Proper calibration makes controlling the ship much easier.

Gertrude is dropping turds on cars to save her ducklings. Fly Gertrude directly over cars to drop turd bombs on crazy drivers and send them off the road out of the ducklings' way. Be careful though—fly too close to the edges and you'll get zapped by the high-power lines! Tap to change direction, and give yourself a pat on your back if you can take out more than 10 cars. You're a high-flying pro if you can nuke more than 50.
