Gameplay
Tube Panic is a tube shooter similar in style to Atari's Tempest (1981).[3] In the game, the player controls a spaceship named Marcus who must navigate and escape a tube-like liminal space in outer space.[2] However, unlike Tempest, levels are set in fully three-dimensional areas, allowing for varied placements of enemies unbeforeseen in the genre.[4] Levels set in a horizontally scrolling space also appear in the game. The game ends when Marcus rejoins the mother ship or loses all his lives.[5]
