One dude in one Steam thread asked for Vecter to support screens in portrait mode because he has an arcade machine which has the screen in portrait. As a big fan of arcade machines myself, as you all know, I want to honour this brave individual, so now the UI scales to fit pretty much any aspect ratio, portrait or landscape or even square.
I'll be the first to admit that it doesn't always look good in portrait as I wanted a quick-ish solution. But over time I hope to work a little more on it so it better uses the screen in that format.
In the process, I also upgraded from Unity 2019 to Unity 2020. I wouldn't be able to tell you what's new and different in 2020 vs 2019, hopefully, it doesn't have a Pandemic mode in there. However, I like keeping Vecter on the latest version as it makes it a lot easier on me to upgrade often and quickly then do an upgrade every year or so and find out that 20 million things are no longer compatible and I have to fix half the game.
Did you know I have a Twitter account? Follow me on twitter! Why? I dunno man why does anyone follow anyone on Twitter...
If the menus look a little different than they used to, this is a consequence of the new portrait support. Please let me know if there are menus you cant read / use because they are too big/small / don't fit.
On a totally unrelated note, have you guys seen the Bitcoin prices recently? Crazy...
Aright... well it's a Sunday so have a great remainder of the weekend everyone. Hopefully, it all goes nice and quiet for you. I'm going to spend the rest of it probably in bed with my feet up and eating ice cream.
All the best!

🎮 Full Controller Support

There are obstacles, there are enemies, there are power-ups and there will be plenty more to come! I hope you're good at staring contests because you will not have the luxury of blinking!
Compete with your friends and with strangers for the top spot of the daily leaderboard. If you're top dog for that day, you remain top dog for that day on that track forever! It's all you, you did it!
And you don't need to be in-game to show off your position, you can also take it to your friends house and brag about your greatness while everyone is awkwardly ignoring you for boasting about something nobody's even heard about. Here's the link in case you need it
One important thing to note is that Vecter does not have a road-map, or a planed out future. There is a trello board with features that I plan on implementing and the feature request channel on the Vecter discord server.
I'm a one-man dev team, and I'm making this game purely out of passion around all of my other IRL commitments, so development sometimes may be slow. It's a hobby and a damn fun one at that but at this stage it's still just a hobby.
Among other things I'm also making an arcade version of vecter complete with it's own cabinet.
