Development and history
Revision 4 is the highest-numbered B.E.T.H. binary preserved in Vectrexia’s current library. The project is associated with Manu Pärssinen and the active Vectrex homebrew scene around 2000.
The page is deliberately framed as a revision record. That is more accurate—and more useful to preservation research—than describing each numbered build as a separate commercial game.
This page uses one stable canonical URL for the title and loads its embedded ROM directly into the emulator after the Vectrex BIOS is ready.
Gameplay and background
Use the same core control mapping as the earlier revisions and compare the feature set, stability, and presentation against V1 through V3.
How to play in Vectrexia
- Move with the Arrow keys or WASD. Compatible controllers can use the left analog stick or D-pad.
- Vectrex buttons 1–4 map to Z, X, C, and V, and to the standard face buttons on most gamepads.
- Press a controller button after connecting it so the browser can expose the gamepad to the page.
Audio may begin after the first click, key press, or controller input because browsers can restrict autoplay.
