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.  Update: the Vectrex Kickstarter is live and blew past its first funding goal in ab out 15 minutes, and approaching £450K and 2,500 backers in its first day.   His story mirrors mine somewhat, Vectrex represents a glowing, unaffordable, obelisk of gaming power from our youth!

Mike Bithell's Subsurface Circular coming to Switch in March

Mike Bithell of Thomas Was Alone and Volume fame has dug out a great niche for himself as a stylish developer. His latest game stealth-released on PC last year to further critical success and is now heading to the Switch.

Subsurface Circular, a text-based adventure short-story about bots on a train, sees you having to solve the mystery of the droids that keep going missing through a series of interactions. The game has met with overwhelmingly positive reviews and has plenty of visual flair for a wordy game.

As a smaller title, it will only cost $5.99 (£4.79) with the port handled by @FreakyZoid but still offers between two-to-four hours of the most refined entertainment. Hopefully this means his previous efforts will also grace the Switch.
