Criss-Crossing the Vectrex Scene: In the fifth in an annual series of shows looking at the Vectrex, an obscure, but much-loved video game system from the early 1980s, Alex Fitch talks to a couple of programmers who make new games for the platform. Christopher Salomon a.k.a. Malban discusses the many releases he’s written for the Vectrex including the terrific shoot-em-up Vectorblade and his two adaptations of Frogger. Chris Parsons, who publishes and distributes games as Vector Republic, chats about the inspirations for his titles Big Blue, Frontier and Quartz’s Quest.
