But it&apos;s quite the beefy blast from the past, including not just a pile of games but also a pair of his early &#8220;light synthesizers,&#8221; updated with new options and support for controllers, and a remastered version of Minter&apos;s &#8220;signature shooter masterpiece&#8221; Gridrunner, which promises &#8220;thrilling modern graphics and sound\u2013while still running the core of the Commodore 64 version for 100% gameplay accuracy.&#8221; (And yes, the original C64 version of Gridrunner is in there too.)<\/p>\n<p>The new game collection and documentary on Steam isn&apos;t the only big Jeff Minter news to drop today. Songbird Productions also announced that it&apos;s partnering with Atari to bring back Tempest 3000, a Minter game released in 2000 for the long-defunct <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nuon_(DVD_technology)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nuon<\/a> set-top box.
