Game design legend and sheep afficionado Jeff Minter has coded on most machines in existence with a steady stream of fun, intense, trippy arcade titles. That run will continue on the Vita with a new version of one of the finest games ever. Tempest 2000 was a must-own for the few Atari Jaguar owners out there, with hypnotic visuals, awesome soundtrack and a barrage of cool effects and endless play.
Hardcore Gamer: Americans celebrate Thanksgiving every November. It’s a time when families gather, friends reconnect and communities come together. On Thanksgiving you announce what you are thankful for in life. Some of those might be particular video games, so several of the members of our staff decided to let everyone know exactly which games they are thankful for. It is comprised of releases from 2017 and made up of a variety of reasons. Read on to see the titles everyone decided were meaningful enough to make the list!
BT Games: "We take a look at the six titles that have changed and modernised indie gaming as we know it."
Nice to see an indie-game story talk about Jeff Minter, one of the best indie designers out there.
Not long after a first showing of this re-visitation of Tempest 2000 off to Sony, Jeff Minter has written up a milestone blog post showing off his progress and packed full of some proper shots of TxK in action. Equate those images to the information that he's still pretty early in development and it looks like we could have something pretty special on our hands when the game is complete.
By the end of the year.

Gotta love the Yak - now if only he would put 'Revenge of the Mutant Camels' out too - such an awesome game that was on the C64.
I was just wishing the other day that I still had my NUON dvd player with Tempest 3000.
