Sci-Fi

A neon fever dream of a shooter, Tempest throws you onto a web of interconnected platforms, demanding twitch reflexes and strategic thinking. Its unique perspective and vector graphics created a distinctive visual style, while the simple yet challenging gameplay loop, where you blast away at encroaching enemies, keeps you hooked. The ability to jump between platforms and the threat of enemies that could scale the playfield provided a constant sense of danger and a rewarding feeling of mastery.
You control a yellow crab-shaped shooter that travels along the outside rim of a 3-dimensional tunnel, shooting enemies down the alleys of the tunnel while avoiding any coming down the alleys. The tunnel takes on many different forms, and the shooter has a special "superzapper" that enables it to kill all enemies present in the tunnel.
