'''Tempest''' was an arcade game, developed by [[Atari]] in [[1980]], and was the first game to make use of Atari's Color-Quadrascan technology, which was a colored vector display system. Previously, vector monitors can only produce black and white images, or at best, shades of gray. However, since Atari used vector displays in quite a number of games, they developed a technique to display vector graphics using different colors. This made Tempest stand out equally among monochrome vector games and colored raster games. | '''Tempest''' was an arcade game, developed by [[Atari]] in [[1980]], and was the first game to make use of Atari's Color-Quadrascan technology, which was a colored vector display system.
