RostokMcSpoons Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Ooooh I love vector graphics... Battlezone and star wars being my fave arcade games... I always aspired to owning the Vectrex. Does it live up to expectations? Just to show my love for vectors I wrote a version of Asteroids in 'Scratch' a few years ago... https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/245563 I did a rough version of Star Castle too.

RostokMcSpoons Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) @rj1986 That was definitely cool. I don't think I ever saw one in action, I'll be searching YT for it It also puts me in mind of the rather older "Flight Deck"... https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/27342/flight-deck I can't remember if I got it for birthday or Xmas, but I do know that a) It was a brilliant idea b) the long lengths of fishing line that suspended the plane got tangled up in 0.07 nanoseconds and it never worked again. I still had fun with the model plane and the flight controls, but I bet my dad was pissed off that I wrecked it before he got a go Edited December 6, 2021 by RostokMcSpoons Druid799 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
