Interlude… Some spare time befor the holiday … I will not start with new Vectorblade stuff, so I thought I might do some “small” stuff I wanted to do for quite some while. I think it was last year that…
24th of May – John Hall
19th of May Vide 2.0
Just a short notice… I uploaded version 2.0 of Vide. Nothing much changed from the last beta, some bugs I found were corrected – and “smart list” generation was added – that’s mainly all. Didn’t have much feedback – so…
18th of May – To the outside, nothing new…
Thinking about doing another space oriented theme within vectorblade. I happen to have the idea of a giant sized spacecraft in the shape of a globe – as a boss fight. Don’t think anyone ever had an idea as such.…
13th of May – Explosions
A little “interlude” about different thoughts I had the last days about explosions. Not much text – just a video – and a download if interested: Explosions.zip
8th of Mai – one month gone by
Hi, one month without an update – also one month on my side with very little Vectrex impact. I finished Fallout IV (and played on for quite some time), started Skyrim VR, God of War, Wipout (VR) – and played…

5th of April – Vectorblade VIII – Beware I live!
After some pondering – I decided I just keep going and see where coding leads me. Thanks for all suggestions and kind words! Following optimizations have been done: – halfed the animation size of (most) bonus – rotation of…
2nd of April 2018 Vectorblade VII
First bossfight. And “just” a video: If you want to do something good for me/the game… cheer me up. Because right now I am a little bit “disheartened”… (explained in the video…) 🙁 Malban
24th of March Vectorblade VI – Collisions
Juggling the current numbers… (collision detection for scoopies is finished btw) One single bullet in average uses about 133 cycles. This includes positioning, drawing and collision detection. Which in my oppinion is already really fast. Doing 120 of them round…
