The legendary Dave Theurer created the original Tempest for the Atari back in 1981, but indie developer Jeff Minter adapted the 3D wireframe shooter for the Atari Jaguar in 1994 with Tempest 2000, effectively transforming an already great game into an arcade-style rave. Tempest 4000 is itself an update of an update. 'Tempest 4000' is neon-drenched space travel. Fundamentally, it’s remarkably similar to something like Galaga or Space Invaders only the flat surface curls around onto four connected planes before dissolving and exploding, transformed into a new shape. In Tempest 4000, the player controls a clawed ship sliding across a multidimensional space. Keep in mind, however, that Tempest 4000 does not come with direct VR support on any consoles, but playing it with a PSVR headset still feels like the IMAX-equivalent way of enhancing your enjoyment. It doesn’t necessarily compare with something like Thumper which was designed squarely as a “rhythm violence” game for VR, but for gamers that want the same style of video game with some retro flair, Tempest 4000 is a great option. Tempest 4000 was released on Jand quickly became one of my low-key favorite games to sit back with for a chill experience on my PlayStation VR. The newly-released Tempest 4000 offers some huge updates to the 1981 Atari classic video game, infusing the game with stylish music and updated graphics that make it feel right at home among other tune-driven music synthesizer-inspired VR games.
