Vectrex - Vector Patrol (TUTSTRONIX) for the GCE Vectrex system - A short demo by VGO
*Sorry about the shaky camera / messy game play. I had to hold the camera, and play with one hand. Not an easy feat with the Vectrex joystick! :P I'll try and get a proper recording of this someday.
Vector Patrol is one of the most impressive Vectrex games, commercial, homebrew, or otherwise, which you are likely to have seen, thus far! It was released by Kristof Tuts, in October 2018, and (as of this posting), can be ordered through his website here: http://www.kristofsvectrexgames.be/
(No endorsement, money, or free copies of any games, has been made in exchange for this information. I'm simply posting all of this, because I think it's an AWESOME game!)
His original webpage information for VECTOR PATROL:
"Take a ride with your moon-car through wild moon-canyons
while getting attacked by hostile ufo's, bombers and blasting
your way through rocks, mines, moontanks, etc...
