// The Vectrex is a unique gaming console developed in the early 80s by Smith Engineering and manufactured by General Consumer Electronics. It was briefly licensed to Milton Bradley before the video game crash of 1983 discontinued its production a year later. Despite it's short lifetime, the Vectrex has garnered a cult following for it's unique display technology. Unlike most pixel-based monitors, the Vectrex features a vector-based display, a cathode-ray constantly drawing outlines like a mad painter. Game drawn on screen based off of "Pole Position," it's worth checking out the live gameplay on YouTube (Erin Plays does a good run through of all the games). //

-- Created in Deluxe Paint IV on an emulated Amiga A1200 computer. --
