Typhoon 2001 - Retro-gaming at its finest

I can't speak for everyone, but I love "retro" style gaming, especially when nice folks out there program open source (free) versions of my old favorites. Here's a great (and free!) version of the classic game "Tempest". Actually, this is a version of the advanced game Tempest 2000 which was a highly acclaimed for its playability on the short lived Atari "Jaguar" game system. This version has great graphics (smooth and pretty psychedelic). It plays well with keyboard, mouse or joystick (Joystick was my preferred mode here). One tip. To get to the options screen, simply hit the "enter" key after the game has been loaded.

Typhoon 2001 - Overview

This is the homepage of Typhoon 2001, a freeware game inspired by both the Atari Jaguar hit game Tempest 2000 and the arcade hit Tempest. It takes ideas and concepts from both games, but rearranges and changes them. A few new ideas have been implemented as well.
