Yeah, why can't we make games that fully utilize the nature of the XY monitor of the Vectrex? I'm sure it's nice that someone would make a Pac-Man clone...but wouldn't even a Battlezone clone be even nicer. ;)

People seem to forget that the Vectrex display is nothing like the traditional raster displays they're used to. I see it as lines of light being not only drawn but manupulated through three dimensions. Yes I said 3D, simple 3D math like "shrinking" and "streching" lines can be applied to the Vectrex.

If I can get some of my other planned projects out of the way, I wouldn't mind having a crack at making a Vectrex game. :)
