Tube Panic — About this game
Tube Panic carries the ship through rotating geometric passageways full of enemies and obstacles. Changing position around the tube changes the view as the beam cannon attacks along the route. Travel can be accelerated or slowed, but power continues to drain. Successful docking with the mothership restores it, making the end-of-mission approach important after the shooting itself.
