Legendary game designer Jeff Minter’s psychedelic reimagining of Atari’s ’80s arcade prototype Akka Arrh comes to PC and consoles on 21st February.
The original Akka Arrh was created by Atari’s Mike Hally and Dave Ralston in 1982, but the unfinished prototype never went into full production and only three cabinets are still said to exist. More recently, however, the prototype did get an airing in last year’s superb Atari 50: Anniversary Celebration collection.
Minter’s reimagining of Akka Arrh will take the core of the original and build it out into “a cascade of words, colour, shapes and sound [flowing] around your turret as you desperately fight off swarms of inbound attackers”.
