It's also a loud game with sounds it made like rockets firing before you flew into the tunnel after winning a round. It was unique too almost a flashback to the pong days having a rotary controller but dang the game play was good. Classic vector graphics similar to asteroids but in color not black & white! Tempest was the best of their color vector games. Unfortunately, the proprietary Atari monitors had an alarming tendency to burn up their HV power supplies. Atari charged a fortune for replacements. Fortunately, Wells-Gardner made a serviceable monitor that was a drop-in replacement. BTW, the tunnels, tubes, wells—whatever people called them—are "holes". You have to read the service manual to find that out. And why they didn't use ball bearings on the rotary controller I have no idea.
