Thanks, Graham, I'll check it out as soon as I can. I assume this game works fine in other emulators?

The only other one I have installed at the moment is Roger's "Vectrex Online" which works OK.
Thanks for reporting this. I spent some time investigating, and figured out the root of the issue. This is the first game I test (I think) that uses the shift register differently. Most games use the "Shift out under 02" mode, while this game uses that and also disables the shift register at times to manually control blanking using the peripheral control register. I implemented this (it was partly done already), and now all looks good.
The next build should include this fix.
Graham, can you verify that this works now?
Running the game Sea Pup (the "No PB6" version of the binary from https://portauthority.itch.io/sea-pup ) is unplayable on Vectrexy - although I think the only issue may be the programmer is drawing with some vector intensities set too low. However there is no "brightness knob" setting that would let the user compensate. (That I could find. Apologies if I missed something?) Give it a try and see for yourself.
