Space Junk (iPhone, iPad) $0.99
There’s all kinds of debris circling the planet – satellites, probes and even aliens spacecraft. Your job is to clean it up, and the best way to do that is to vaporize it. Such is the premise of Space Junk, a retro-styled shooter in which you fly around blasting stuff before it crashes into you. Along the way, you’ll gather power-ups to supercharge your space-junk-blasting gun, and use a little jetpack and your inertia in zero gravity to navigate through each level.
Space Junk includes 25 levels and three different difficulty levels, along with its old-school neon Vector graphics. It’s also kind of hilarious: you’ll encounter some goofy stuff in space, like probes filled with dogs and other space exploration-related stuff.
