Vector game refers to any video game that uses a vector graphics display. This means, instead of drawing the image by pixels, the image is projected by an electron beam, drawing lines like a laser show. The term is also used to refer to games that simulate the look of vector graphics, nevertheless using raster technology, usually for stylistic purposes. Games of this type were produced mainly by Atari, Cinematronics, and Sega. There is also an obscure company called "Vectorbeam" who only made vector games. And no, Vectorman wasn't made this way.
