Debris for vectrex rerelease

[Seob]

Exactly five years ago today, I announced my first Vectrex game: Debris.

 

The game sold out quickly after its announcement and while I received much

positive feedback on it, there were features that I wanted to include but

couldn't at the time. Due to the large amount of graphic and music data,

Debris took up almost every byte of the 32K available.

 

Now to celebrate its fifth anniversary, I am happy to announce Debris Revisited.

Ideas I wanted to include in the original and feedback given by players have been

mixed with additional features to create a new version of Debris that will hopefully

please all.

 

New aspects to Debris Revisited include:

 

- New levels and enemy attack patterns

- Internet high score uploading

- Lives and level progress indicators

- More challenging boss fights

- Intelligent respawning upon death

- Improved gameplay

- Enemy fire

- New bonus game Astrododge

- Unlockable content

 

Besides the features above, there are also a lot more subtle changes that will improve

the gameplay in general.

 

So whether you'd like to try the new Debris, have a crack at the online scoring, or

couldn't get in on the action the first time around... here is your chance!

 

A trailer of the game is online at:

 

Debris Revisited is scheduled to be released this December.

Exact details on date and price to follow.

Hello guys,

I am in love for this game on my vectrex but I can't find any original cartridge of it or at least for a reasonable price.

 

because this is a 2010 game homebrew release there is not a possibility to have it as free download or anyway a digital download for few dollars?
If yes I could use it on my Multricart and I would be happy the same 😛

 

thanks,

Cryo

I have an original Debris and had no idea that there was a revisited version, so got quite excited when I read the first message.

 

Can't believe the original was 18 years ago! A lot of the homebrew is pretty much retro now.
