Vectris

About

Vectris is a simple falling-block puzzle game built for the Vectrex. Players shift and rotate geometric pieces to fill rows, clearing them before the stack hits the top. Controls are straightforward, matching the era's minimalist design. The gameplay feels familiar but functional, with a focus on quick reflexes and pattern recognition. The game’s charm lies in its retro quirks. The Vectrex’s vector display creates sharp, angular visuals that feel distinct from pixel-based games of the time. However the hardware struggles with rendering too many shapes at once, causing occasional flicker. This isn’t a flaw but a technical artifact of the system. Released in 1996Vectris holds a niche place in early home console puzzle games. It’s a brief but serviceable diversion for those curious about vector graphics or early DIY game dev experiments.
