the game Livewire originally appeared in Analog computing as a type-in program. Later a Livewire-2 was also released (maybe Page 6 got a licence to reprint it, don`t know)...
You can play this game with a Joystick or Koala-Pad/Paddles...
Interesting historical note. The game is by Tom Hudson who would go on to write Solid States another 3D type-in program printed in the pages of Atari magazine Analog. Solid States would eventually become CAD 3D on the Atari ST. CAD 3D would eventually become 3D Studio MAX which just about every special effects and game producer in the world uses today. From humble beginnings come great things. OK, not so interesting.

Look at Tempest Xtreem, a new Tempest for Atari 8bit computers and a lot better than this version. Coming soon. Find videos on youtube ;)
