Atari Age member CDS Game has decided to work on the 2600 version of Tempest originally started by Carla Meninsk.  CDS is trying to make the game more playable. CDS has already isolated and fixed a few of the main problems.

It plays surprisingly well.  It's incredible this was even attempted on the 2600!
