A free copy of the game to all iOS users who previously played
Rantmedia Games, a top developer and publisher of mobile games, is giving retro gamers a real gift today. Along with Vectrex Regeneration’s update comes a new pricing model which gives the game away for free to all who downloaded it before this morning. For everyone else the game is now $2.99 with no IAP.
“The Vectrex had a huge fan base and we saw people all over the world demo the game or buy a few classics they remembered,” said Anton Faulconbridge, CEO of Rantmedia.” To reward these fans for keeping us in business, we decided they should all get the full game for free today. For everyone else we got rid of the IAP and just made it one low price so everyone that loved the console can play it again.”
Today’s update brings back the classics Space Wars and Polar Rescue along with a new game to the system, Veccy Bird. The visuals have also been improved including adjustable glow, and MFi controllers are now supported to get that true Vectrex console feeling. With the addition of new language support and tons of fixes, the update greatly improves on an amazing App.
Vectrex Regeneration is a faithful recreation of the Vectrex. A truly unique game console as the first and only to ever use a vector-based screen, it included a built-in controller and a cartridge port for its 29 games. Rantmedia Games’ new App, Vectrex Regeneration, brings home the only authentic experience on iOS. The Vectrex was so beloved by its community that new developers have continued to create games for the system. Many of those games are now available for the first time on iOS so anyone can play the newest titles.
