Our take on Radium
The defining mechanic is the pair of tractor beams: movement comes from managing the forces they exert on the ball rather than directly steering it. A polarity change later reverses both the ball’s movement and the beams’ effect.
What is Radium?
Radium is a minimalist physics skill game built around controlling a ball with two tractor beams.
The beams exert force to guide the ball through each level. Some stages require collecting tokens before the exit becomes active. Collecting a special item changes the interface to yellow, reverses the ball’s fall so it moves upward, and makes the beams push the ball away. The game contains 130 levels that grow more difficult over time. Automatic zoom and scrolling adjust the view during play. Its structure removes nonessential elements and focuses on ball movement, force-based control, token collection, exits, and the polarity change.
How Radium plays
- 01Tractor Beam Controls
- Two beams apply force to the ball, making positioning the central challenge in each stage.
- 02Polarity Change
- A collected item switches the interface to yellow, reverses the ball’s movement, and changes the beams from pulling to pushing.
- 03130 Progressive Levels
- The stages increase in difficulty across the game’s 130-level structure.
- 04Token-Based Exits
- Some stages require tokens before the exit can be activated.
- 05Automatic View Movement
- Zooming and scrolling adjust automatically while navigating levels.
