GroovyBee Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 The best Vectrex Roli video yet. The Vectrex Roli video game is classic Der Luchs style . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Luchs Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 As I said it in the Vector Forum: I don't know this game, I needed to watch it on YouTube.What should I say... if it reminds you of it, it's ok for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vectrexroli Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 Reminded me of 2600 Mangia a fair bit As I am still waiting for the new 2600 Harmony flashcart to come out, I had to checkout Mangia on Youtube. The only similarities I have seen so far are that there is also a woman, a window and a lamp on the screen, but the gameplay mechanics seem to be different. :-) Anyway, I have to check out Mangia for sure one day though as it looks like a fun game, at least on the Youtube video. Hope that the new Harmony cartridge will be available soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 In Mangia, the idea is to either eat OR get rid of the pasta you are served without your mother seeing you do so, by foisting it on the dog or cat. It's that latter mechanic that's quite similar to this game, that you have to collect the package and walk away without Mrs Roli noticing. It's not a game mechanic that has been done very often, so only a few hardcore folks such as myself will even really know about Mangia.

Der Luchs Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 As I said, if it reminds you of it, it's ok. Some one else will may have a different point of view. Thats why we're all individuals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Is there any kind of package that Mrs Roli would fancy getting? I can imagine an extended gameplay where some packages should not be picked up, but rather wait for her to pick it up, then disappear for a while when the coast is clear to pick up every package before she returns. Or I dunno, perhaps it would not add much to the game but artificial complexity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess this is just a simple retro style game and not "Skyrim". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Luchs Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 If the ppl are interested in a part 2, I will love to do it, maybe with the postman too So, lets see ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Luchs Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) LoL 2 min before my post The postman was good ^^ Edited October 20, 2014 by Der Luchs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 True, it might be overkill to turn it into Vectrexrolicraft with online, televised tournaments and Korean teams specialized in playing Vectrex for 12 hours a day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Well, I suppose the game we're all waiting for right now is Vectrexroli GO, where you go out to hunt Vectrexroli and throw balls onto him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
