- Just to let everyone know, there is a PD version of "Tempest" available, that
- is VERY true to the original, and has both a lo-res and hi-res version. I
- personally think it's superior to what I've seen/heard about Vektor Storm.
- The file containing the game was called "Tempest.LZH" (from a PD BBS), the
- game's called "Cyclone".
