Spacewalking for iPhone and iPod touch 3rd gen and above.

Appadvice: "The level of detail and realism is extraordinary, and you wont find anything else like it on the App Store"

Toucharcade: "Im going home, There is the Moon, There is North America, Lets aim for South Carolina and hope for the best"

Pocketgamer: "Astronaut: Spacewalk is described as "a highly realistic astronaut jetpack simulator" which, lets be honest, sounds cool as hell."

iFanzine: "There’s no doubting that Astronaut: Spacewalk is one of the most difficult iOS games to get into, but once you survive the learning phase, you might be surprised at how hooked you are."

Modojo: "Astronaut simulator takes players to final frontier"

Slidetoplay: "Maybe the realistic-looking iOS simulator Astronaut: SpaceWalk will help inspire tomorrows private-sector astronauts."

Playscifi: "I’d like you all to know that I think it’s a wonderfully authentic game (real spacewalkers may beg to differ), one that is as much as simulation of orbital space manoeuvring as it is a casual zero-gravity obstacle course."

The-app-shack: "Astronaut Spacewalk is really less of a game, and more of a challenging experience."


Astronaut Spacewalk is a highly realistic astronaut jetpack simulator. Fly the Manned Manouvering Unit from the Space Shuttle cargo bay to several satellites, align into position to make repairs and dock back into the Shuttle.

Fly the jetpack in 20 daring missions where you have to rendezvous with different satellites from the smaller TDRS and Solar Maximum, medium sized like the Magellan and Galileo probes, to the big Skylab, Hubble telescope and russian MIR station.

Up for a Challenge?

Pretty to look at but difficult to master. Flying in space is not like flying a plane. A small wrong movement can send you in a collision path and the stress of how to quickly recover while keeping the valuable electricity and fuel resources.

Challenge yourself to master Inertial Flight in space where there is no up or down and there is nowhere to hang on to if you loose control.

The difference between life and death is the oxygen in your suit and the nitrogen in your jetpack.

It might be beautiful but who said that floating in space was easy?

- For a better experience read the "Operation Manual"

- Note that the control buttons are not the crosses. The buttons are the empty spaces between the crosses.

Pros and cons of Astronaut Spacewalk app for iPhone and iPad

Astronaut Spacewalk app good for

A great Space Simulator with authentic radio messages and realistic control system. Now you can enjoy earth from an astronauts view. Please add full HD Retina Images as well as the option to rotate the screen! A Universal App would also be quite nice. Besides, implementing some other space-3D-models such as ISS or even some Startrek-Ships would be great to see in a future release. Fascinating and very entertaining, love it!
Good Controls, Good Graphics, nice Missions!! / Gute Steuerung, gute Grafiken, tolle Missionen!! I Would be happy of The developers do The following things: -Optimize for 4 inch screen of iPhone 5, 5C, 5S, iPod touch 5 Gen. -More Missions / Ich würde mich freuen wenn die Entwickler die folgenden Dinge machen: -Optimieren für das 4 Zoll Display vom iPhone 5, 5C, 5S, iPod touch 5 Gen. -Mehr Missionen
This is a hard core, realistic space sim. Its not for everyone. Dont expect fast arcade type action. Instead, it takes slow, deliberate steps to complete each mission. If you like following real life space missions in progress, this is for you.
Its a really fun to play game, maybe add support for the iPhone 5?
I thought this game was ridiculously difficult, but after getting the controls down completing missions were no problem. The missions are complex, but its rewarding to complete them. Im looking forward to more missions and perhaps a universal App? Problems: it worked flawlessly on iPhone 4, it crashed A few times when I put it on my classic iPad and started it for the first time. After rebooting, however, the problem seems to have resolved itself.

Some bad moments

Where is it, when is it coming, the games Good but sucks for iphone 5 owners!!!
Great game idea but the controls for the game are horrible and camera angle changes are near impossible.
Its a pretty good game but it is hard like almost impossible but can I get my money back please
This games does not work right it does Not come on the screen
I think its great and fun and challenging once u get the hang of it!
I would love to play however the crash at the first screen happens every time I start the game even after a system update and 2 re-download attempts. $4 may not seem like a lot but it is still money paid for a broken game. Please fix the issue soon and I will change my rating to what looks like a 5 (again if I could play it).
