I'm not a huge fan of Joust, but this looks like a very nice take on the game.

Wow, that's cool! An overlay would really liven up that game. Am I seeing this right, is SpideX a version of Black Widow?

Yesterday, I've received my copy #35 of KnightEx ordered on 20th January. Alexander shipped very fast and from what I have read all orders have been shipped by now, already. Similar to the SpideX cartridges, the KnightEx cartridge comes loose and has a hand-written labelling.
A short review: Game play of KnightEx is really good. From what I can see animation and behaviour of the knights and birds is close to the game "Joust". I much like the eggs animation and the rebirth of the knights and birds if you don't collect the eggs. Graphics are a bit small. A title screen with a large graphic would have been nice. I still have to play KnightEx more to see how difficulty ramps up and how the game varies but already I'd say that KnightEx is another really good game for the Vectrex.

Good to know. I've ordered a copy as well, but it won't arrive for a while.
