Vectrex Mini interview - David Oghia talks up the nostalgic vector powerhouse

Having been wowed by the news of the Vectrex Mini at Gamescom , I rushed off some questions to VectrexOn's main man  David Oghia . After a post-event, well earned, break, he's kindly given us a lot of detail about the project and some new images of the unit to share.  His story mirrors mine somewhat, Vectrex represents a glowing, unaffordable, obelisk of gaming power from our youth! But he's had the energy and drive to do something about it, and met the right people to get the job done!  What first got you interested in Vectrex and what spawned the idea of a Mini version?

Flyhunter Origins buzzes into life this month

3D bug adventure Flyhunter Origins will grace the Vita later this month for just £4.99 on PSN and offering a fresh take on the microcosm genre. The team at Steel Wool games has a deep background in CG movies (Bug's Life, anyone?) and this looks like quite the fun arcade adventure.


Take on the role of Zak; a bumbling alien spaceship janitor and wannabe Flyhunter. He works on board the Flyhunter Crew's legendary spaceship; 'The Frog', but deep down he longs for an exciting adventure of his own...


Somewhere in Earth's orbit, while the Flyhunters are deep in cryo sleep; The Frog's important cargo of extremely rare insects is mysteriously jettisoned into space, crash-landing back on Earth. It seems that the clumsy janitor Zak is the only one around to save the day. Can this accidental hero swap his sweeping brush for a super-cool fly swatter and take on the role of daring Flyhunter? Hurry! Help this little dude hunt down these expensive bugs before "The Investors" find out they're missing.
