About

Trace Vector, released in 2014, is an action-adventure indie game that combines high-speed arcade action with puzzle-solving elements. This title pays homage to the golden age of 80s video arcades, featuring modern vector-style graphics that create a unique visual experience. Players race their spaceship through geometry-based levels, collecting fuel cells while aiming to break free from the network's grasp, making it both easy to pick up and challenging to master.

In terms of PC performance, Trace Vector is quite accessible, requiring only an entry-level GPU with a minimum score of around 300. This means you can expect decent FPS on most contemporary hardware, even with the graphics settings pushed. For optimal performance, even budget-friendly GPUs, such as those in the NVIDIA GTX 1000 series or AMD Radeon RX 400 series, should provide a smooth gaming experience. As a benchmark, players can look forward to solid FPS results without needing high-end components.

If you're a fan of action-packed indie titles that challenge your skills, Trace Vector is certainly worth a try. With a rating of 70/100, it offers a satisfying blend of fast-paced gameplay and retro-inspired graphics, making it a noteworthy addition for those who appreciate innovative gaming experiences.

Performance profile

Released in August 2014, Trace Vector sits in the DirectX 11 generation. Comfortable on any modern mid-range GPU at 1440p; even an RTX 3050 or RX 6600 typically delivers 4K60 at High settings.

Trace Vector is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Extremely light — Trace Vector runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.
