Thanks, Richard. Yes, it's better in color
not only because colored vectors are
amazing looking, but because the color
helps to distinguish different images on
the screen. In my demo, the cannons
are green, but you can't really tell them
apart from the rest of the station when
using Kevin's adapter. It does provide a
good 3D experience, and I actually tested
the game with his adapter before releasing
this demo. I hope that he starts selling
them again.
I somewhat enjoyed doing the trial and error
part of the 3D programming (working with the
perspectives while designing the game).
The most difficult part of 3D programming
on Vectrex is working within the increased
timing limitations that are in place (moreso
than regular Vec programming). Well before
flicker comes into play, the colors will not
display properly if you attempt to do too
much at once. I've come up with some tricks
to extend this a bit, but it's still very limiting.
Update for pre-orderers who have not yet
received their package...
It's either enroute, or about to be shipped.
Sorry for the delay.
George
