Original Tempest???!!

This game still needs to be refined more than it is. The arrows pointing on turning work sometimes. Most of time the ship stayed stationary. There was a consistent white box right beside the fire button. I loved to play tempest at the arcade back in the 80’s. PLEASE work on this to make it BETTER!!!

Broken

This game does not function. From the reviews on the free version it sounds like the company doesn't care to fix the problems either.

Not at all like Tempest

The controls are not at all fluid, and the baddies are chaotic. I deleted this game in under two minutes after downloading it.
