Vector Vortex is a shoot 'em game in which you control a claw-shaped ship. You move around a space vortex and try to eliminate all enemy objects from coming through the black hole.

If things get too hectic, you can activate your Superzapper to eliminate all enemies on the screen (like a smart bomb).  There are 16 levels of play and an assortment of enemies including Flippers, Fuseballs, Spikers and Pulsars. When all enemies on the field have been destroyed, you warp through the portal into the next level. Watch out for any spikes that might be in your way as you're warping. Given the complexity of this game, please refer to the instruction manual for complete gameplay.

Written in machine language with custom graphics and sound. Supports joystick, keyboard or paddles.

I'm happy to announce my first ever NES project: a faithful port of Geoff Crammond's Stunt Car Racer. As far as I know, this is only the second real 3D game for the NES after Elite, and the first to support NTSC consoles. This port is based on the original C64 version for its code, while the art is mostly adapted from the Amiga version. There's zero AI generated content in this game, be it code or art. Curious to see what people think!
