Atari has shared the first gameplay and some new screenshots for their upcoming throwback arcade title Tempest 4000.

Featured above, the first gameplay for the retro shooter showcases its arcade-like nature. It’s worth reiterating the game is being developed under original Tempest creator Jeff Minter and his new studio, Llamasoft.

Here’s a rundown on the game, via Atari:

Developed by legendary game designer Jeff Minter, Tempest 4000 remains faithful to the original fast-paced gameplay while adding exciting new features and gorgeous graphics for audiences on the most popular contemporary platforms.

The original Tempest, one of the first video games to use 3D vector graphics, represents one of Atari’s hallmark titles and is considered one of the most popular arcade games of all time. It has been featured prominently across pop culture – including in Ernest Cline’s dystopian Ready Player One novel.

Just as in the original game, players are once again in control of the Claw, a powerful spacecraft equipped to destroy deadly creatures and other obstructions with rapid-fire shots on vibrant geometric prisms. With three game modes to choose from and 100 levels to conquer, players must eliminate all enemies as quickly as possible to survive, aiming for the coveted spot at the top of the leaderboards.
