Version FAQ

What should I know before playing Tempest 2000?

The core objective is to survive wave after wave of increasingly complex enemy patterns as they crawl up a geometric path toward you. You must shoot them and optionally repel them with secondary weapons before they reach the rim you are defending.

How do 'Fuseball' enemies work?

Fuseballs are persistent threats: they latch onto the rim, travel along it, and can 'eat' the web line your ship sits on, forcing you off! Quick maneuvering or a Superzapper/Zap attack is needed to dislodge them.

Should I use Normal or Rapid-Fire?

Normal fire (holding the button) zaps enemies instantly with a stream. Rapid-Fire delivers a constant spread of projectiles; both modes are effective and the choice often depends on the approaching enemy wave and personal strategy.
