Against overwhelming odds, use your multi-touch skill and awesome fire power to defeat waves of heavily armed and intelligent aliens, protect your precious cargo pods and collect the crystals you need to survive. Look out for stars, black holes and orbiting meteoroids!

Ion Thruster is a retro-inspired but uniquely styled game designed especially for iOS devices. The intuitive and customisable control mechanism utilises your device's full screen area to provide pinpoint accuracy for aiming your weapons and guiding your ship.

Ion Thruster uses real physics to model collisions, thrust, gravity, and the forces between connected objects (play the game to find out more!)

The free version includes:
- 6 Basic Training levels to get you up and running with the controls.
- 20 Levels that include all games modes and alien types.
- High-scores recorded for each level
- 3 Upgrades to collect: Enhanced Shield; Extra Thrust; Triple Fire
- Customisable control layout - match the control layout to the way you hold your device
- Play in landscape or portrait orientation
- 10 different Alien types to defeat, including bosses and super-bosses!
- Full anti-aliased retina support

Ion Thruster is inspired by the arcade games I loved playing when I was a teenager. See if you can spot them all - some are more obvious than others!
