Yes, looks nice. Congratulations to the programmer!
But has anyone tried this on a real console? I am getting (reproducable) crashes, which occur on both my real Vectrex consoles, but not in an emulator. Will try to investigate this further.
Side note: the brigthness of the beam is set to a rather dim value (0x3f). If you try out the binary in Vide, make sure that the emulated display-brightness is set high enough (Vide configuration menue), or you won't see anything.
Edit: The crash is related to the serial PB6 data, my bad, it does not occur with the non PB6 version.

I ordered the cart. Hopefully there are no issues on real hardware using the cart.

Very sorry if I have caused confusion here. Everything is fine, it was totally my mistake.
I had simply used the wrong binary. I had tried the game in Vide, using the "normal" Sea Pup 1.0 binary. That is the one which includes the PB6 stuff, and Vide, of course, emulates this correctly. Then I stumbled about the low-intensity issue I mentioned before, and wanted to see how intensity behaves on a real console. I flashed the binary on my VecFlash, and then got the crash.
The README.TXT file explicitly states that this will not work, and that the Sea Pup 1.0 NoPB6 binary should be used with normal flash carts. Blame it on my old eyes and brain cells, I simply forgot about this and used the same binary I had loaded into Vide. My sincere apologies again.

No problemo.
Anyone get any good scores yet? My best is 800. My friend got 830.

I saw the Etsy page and had no idea what it was at first. Wasn't sure if it was a follow up to beluga dreams but now I get it. I'll have to try the download.

Works well in the "VectrexOnline" emulator, doesn't work so well in "Vectrexy", probably because of the brightness issue.

Is it really that expensive for a loose cart, or just cos I'm in the UK?
