Beam Invader is a fixed shooter released in arcades in 1979 by Tekunon Kougyou. It is one of several clones of Space Invaders which was released the previous year, with only the sprites for the UFO and player-controlled cannon altered.
Unlike the original, this game uses a paddle as the controller rather than a joystick or left/right buttons. [1]
