Modder brings Doom to the Vectrex using custom multicart hardware

Developer Jason Kopp (ArcadeJason) has built a Doom demo for the 1982 Vectrex vector-graphics console, giving the shooter a Tron-like line-drawn look derived from the console's electron-beam display. The game runs via Kopp's Ultimate Vectrex Multicart 2 cartridge, which acts as a plug-in PC handling processing while the Vectrex's CRT renders the image and the cartridge outputs audio separately; the project also uses an SDK built by Daniel Ferrer Guerrero.
