 Mosh Mosh: Wonderfull.I remember Playing this when I was a Teenager.I Loved it then and still do.Using the Mouse takes a bit of getting used to though.Runs perfect from my Usb Stick Wooo Hoo I love it. [2007-12-28 20:10]

 BluePlanet: lol don't play this on a projector in a dark room... :D My eyes are still punishing me for all the flashing and stuff. Great remake! Only things I would like to see is an option to run it in a window instead of fullscreen, and some of the advanced/other options in the program menus, instead of having to edit the config file. Thanks! [2008-02-11 10:09]

 Aid Hill: Seems like u have to go to http://typhoon.kuto.de . Thats the only way i could get it. [2009-08-11 21:09]

 Mike: This is an awesome game! Really brings back memories of playing Tempest at the ice cream store when I was a kid. [2009-08-20 18:02]

 RDionysus: Great game! Tempest was my all-time favorite when I was a kid. I used to love getting up to the invisible levels, playing for like 1/2 hour on a single quarter :P (not like today's arcade games where it's like a dollar a minute...)

Can anyone suggest though a controller for this game, though? I can't deal with the mouse-- this game needs a full 360 "paddle" like the original game to really play it properly. Just not the same otherwise. Anybody know of something like this that would connect to the computer? (and would the game recognize it?)
I might have to try the author....
In any case he did a great job capturing the feel of the original! [2009-10-13 05:08]
