Minter said via Twitter this morning that he is "beyond disgusted" by Atari's actions, which end plans to release the game on three additional platforms a year after it launched on the PS Vita. In promoting the game,-Minter had said that TxK would "do for (Tempest 2000) what T2K itself did for its ancient arcade ancestor." Minter was producer on-Tempest 2000, which was released in 1994 for Atari's Jaguar console.
