Buyer beware

I've never written a review for anything in my life. I'm a kid of the 70s who played Asteroids way too much. This isn't Asteroids but it's almost as good. Same feel. Cool music. Do you value your time? Buyer beware.
Simply awesome

Deceptively simple. Very well done. Incredibly addictive. When I feel like playing a quick game on my iPad, Tractor Beam is inevitably the one I pick. The rules are simple, but it's astoundingly difficult but in a fun "I will get through this time for sure!!" kind of way. The graphics are reminiscent of 'omega race' for you old schoolers. One of the most well executed games for touch interface. Did I mention it's REALLY fun?
Love it!

its a good game, but you dont get as many lives as the picture above shows. Deserves four stars
Great but one problem

This game is great except for a problem with the gameplay. The most annoying one is if you die with many asteroids on the screen you have to wait about 7 seconds for them to pass. This is exceptionally annoying on the timed runs because you sit there while the game wastes time. When you die, all the asteroids on screen should disappear so you can resume immediately.
Lots of fun!

Great use of multitouch too! Game runs super smooth on my 3GS, and has a surprising amount of depth. A couple of suggestions/complaints. It sometimes hangs on load. It seems weird to me that I'm playing in a cylinder (i.e. the top of the screen wraps around to the bottom), yet my tractor beam doesn't wrap around the cylinder. Finally, as I think other reviewers have suggested, it would be nice to have leaderboards, achievements, etc. Thanks for making such a great game!
Fun stuff

Fun, entertaining, simple and engaging. This game is graphically simple and really fun to play - the music is oddly charming and adds to the experience.
Fun and simple

This game makes great use of the touch functionality; it's a simple game and it gets redundant after a few sessions, but it's always fun to come back to. Needs a few technical tweaks here and there (especially the irregular wait time right after you lose a life). Great randomized music as well.
Fun!

Even if you only p,ay it for a few minutes, it will be a FUN few minutes. And if you back to it again you just may find it addixtive. Old school graphics with a fairly unique gameplay mechanism. I found myself wishing that there was something else to do, like collect special floating bonuses, but, its fun as is. Certainly worth a buck. I've paid more for crud. My hat is off for the developer who came up with this idea.
