Yes, I asked for help a few months ago and he answered me today. I suppose he is going to be very very busy in the coming weeks ... I couldn't prevent myself from informing the Community (sin of pride, isn't it ?) ... would be good to let him "breathe" a bit before overwhelming him with questions and problems.

Would be really great if Madtronix returned. Thanks for sharing this info, Olivier!

Awesome. Nothing but good things from him. I wonder if Star Sling will be back.

Star Sling was Vectorzoa, no? That's a different person right?
Both Vectorzoa and Madtronics were inactive by the time I got into the Vectrex scene. ... I remember Madtronics making a brief announcement of returning about a year ago, but nothing ever happened.
I'd love to get myself a 3D imager for less than $800. Less than $200 would be my goal actually.

  As far as I know, the initial run of the Premium Edition of Star Sling was distributed directly from Vectorzoa but the Turbo Edition was distributed by Madtronics. |

Wow really cool that they got Star Sling logo printed like that, inside of the program chip or whatever that is.

Yes, Star Sling was developed by Alex Nicholson of Vectorzoa I've recently had the pleasure of spending quite some time and sharing a good number of beers with Johannes @ eurocon last month and, to my surprise and joy, I learned he also reproduces / has Alex's blessing to reproduce the brilliant game Spike Circus So I'm expecting him to return with this and some other great ideas |

Yes, Johannes sold slim board versions of Logo and Star Sling, and I believe the latter is a Turbo version of the original limited release. Given Spike's Circus used 2k RAM, then this will need a slightly different board to produce it for another run.
