Tempest is a Shooter game published by Atari Inc. released in 2007.

Since Tempest is a shooter you can expect fast paced action that challenges your reflexes while playing it. Shooter style games are almost always a very fast action style game that is based on testing the players reaction time. Most of the time the player has their weapon held out on screen that is the primary means of targeting other players and enemies.

Halo and Call of Duty are popular shooters.
