    Of the 136 Vyrzons I've sold so far I've sent 16 to Germany and not had any issues reported. I use Royal Mail and put the correct item value and other details on the customs slip... I know that people using other couriers have had parcels returned to them after several months without being delivered.

    I will only be doing a clamshell version of Vyrzon; with Frontier and Quartz's Quest in print and in cardboard boxes I have neither the space or money to stock another game's worth of printed cardboard boxes along with plastic cart trays and box protectors. When all the overlays are gone it will be a simple clamshell release like Big Blue has become... that is the destiny of all of the games I do which I think is preferable to discontinuing them. 😎

    As Minsoft have now finished their full boxed production of Vyrzon (just shy of 400 copies) I am pleased to say that Vector Republic have now taken over publishing of this amazing game with a clamshell version... you can find details and order from www.vectorrepublic.co.uk 👾👾👾👾 👾👾👾👾 👾👾👾👾

    Big Blue - Homebrew

    cNp replied to cNp's topic in Vectrex

    Greetings! Thought i'd just put an overdue update in this thread as I released a budget clamshell version of Big Blue now that all of the final original boxes etc. are definitely now found, made, and sold Full boxed with overlay versions of Frontier and Quartz's Quest are still available for now. https://www.vectorrepublic.co.uk/Big-Blue-Clam-Shell-Edition-GCE-US-Style-p523480952

    A very affordable PCB and label version by Andrew Coleman shipping from the UK: http://vectrex.playntradeonline.com/
  7. cNp
    The game is £39 and postage, which is auto calculated against Royal Mail for International Tracked, is coming out about £18.

    Nice one, glad it arrived safely

    Thanks guys, I really enjoyed the game, hence why I got in touch with the author to offer to publish an enhanced version. We've added silver ink to the packaging this time too so it's the most authentic looking boxes we've ever done

    The game Quartz's Quest has been updated and enhanced and is now available from www.vectorrepublic.co.uk Available as a "name your own price" rom from denebola-interactive.itch.io/quartzs-quest/ it has had a number of additions and enhancements and given the Vector Republic physical release treatment :) A quick list of the improvements/additions in this physical version over the "name your own price" digital version that came out a couple years back: - A number of gameplay balancing changes to enhance the challenge and improve the difficulty curve as well as replayability - Many graphical enhancements and additions to both the overworld and the dungeons - A custom fantasy style font added to replace the system font - Optimised text routines to eliminate flicker and slowdown on text heavy screens (by the genius that is Malban!) - Original music added to the title page composed by Jon Bennett who did the Frontier music - Interface improvements in shops to avoid buying inferior kit - Text changes and corrections as well as formatted better to work with the overlay - Bug fixes

    Hi, BinaryStar is right, there's no Bank Switching (or anything clever!) going on in Big Blue; just BIOS calls to set intensity... I set intensity generally at the lower end of things so on the odd Vectrex it requires the brightness to go a bit higher but mostly it's fine as is (it's ok on all 7 of my test machines). In Frontier I went a bit higher with the intensities in general. Cheers, Chris

    Website now updated and ordering underway... already 128 copies sold! https://vectorrepublic.co.uk/

    Fantastic work, that looks great! Also interested if you decide to make a run of these.
  15. cNp
    All pre-orders now shipped, getting the website updated now for taking orders properly... already 109 copies accounted for
  16. cNp
    There's no demo but I've posted a few videos on Twitter and Facebook as Vector Republic... I'll record some new final vids soon too.
  17. cNp
    I've quietly begun pre-orders to help pay some of the up front printing costs... if you use the Big Blue link to buy the game for your location (UK/EU/Rest of the World) and put a message in the PayPal payment to say it's a pre order for Frontier, along with your address, then I'll add you to the list: http://vectorrepublic.co.uk/gce.html Most of the individual items are ordered now so still on track to ship by the end of May.

    Hi Elwee, thanks for that... I have put a space in between mit and zusätzlichem.... I went with keyboard as, strangely, that is what it says on the original boxes! Hopefully getting the boxes printed next week; should have final physical product by the end of May
  19. cNp
    Oh, and the game IS called Frontier... Outlaw Hill (the 2 player Vs game) is an extra on this full 1 player game
  20. cNp
    Wow, can't believe I didn't update this since the 2 player Vs was relegated to a secondary part of the release and a fully fledged 1 player game was realised! Near;ly ready to release full boxed game with overlay etc. like Big Blue was.

    Vectrex SD Cart?

    cNp replied to adamchevy's topic in Vectrex

    Oh, so these are ready? I believe I'm on the list so hopefully hear something soon
  22. cNp
    Yes, if you search for "3D" in this guide you will find all those released: https://tbone1892001.wixsite.com/vectrex-guide Other than that, Jim Watt has been working on a 3D game for the imager and Chris Binarystar also has done some initial 3D testing that I know of.
  23. cNp
    Great freebie rom Jim, thanks for sharing!
