Anyone play Crazy Coaster for Vectrex? Is it any good?

Recommended Posts

Hey folks,

Has anyone played this game? What's it like? Got any videos/pics of it? Sounds interesting.

I always wanted that game and a 3D imager. Never found the imager cheap enough though. I remember when they were in the display case at TRU and decided that $125 was too much.

The current going rate appears to be over 400 for an unboxed imager. I dont think i will be purchasing one anytime soon. The lightpens are expensive too but there is a cheaper homebrew version.

Crazy Coaster requires the 3d imager to work properly. I couldn't find any links to any video on youtube. I think it would be difficult/impossible to film using an imager. This page talks about the imager http://vectrex.wikia.../wiki/3D_Imager

 

I stand corrected. I found a review of the 3d imager and the game crazy coaster on youtube. Look about 10 minutes in to see crazy coaster.

Thanks for the responses; including the video! The idea of the game sounded interesting.. I would have liked to see a coaster game with a messy death for people that fell off the coaster. :)

I have the imager, but I'm missing the second color wheel that's used with Narrow Escape and Crazy Coaster. The 3D quality is 'ok-ish', but I don't think it's worth paying $400 for an imager.

 

Anyone know where I can get a replacement color wheel? Surely those can be replicated easily enough.
