# Vector Arcade Glow: motion graphics style

> A vector arcade text animation: wireframe 3D letters spin in from deep space on a black monitor, glowing with beam bloom and phosphor trails. A tiny ship blasts drifting rocks; late-70s vector display look for sci-fi, tech and space themes.

## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Recreate a late-1970s vector arcade monitor showing [TEXT]. Pure black screen, everything drawn as thin glowing lines with a cool white-blue core, a soft bloom, brighter dots at line endpoints and phosphor persistence so moving lines smear into fading trails. [TEXT] uses a straight-segment stroke font (octagonal O, angular S, pointed A), extruded into 3D wireframes. Letters fly in one by one from deep space, spinning on their vertical axis, and lock into a row; the word then slowly yaws a few degrees left and right so the depth reads. Around it, jagged polygon space rocks drift and rotate, a small triangular ship cruises and fires dot bullets, and one rock bursts into flying line fragments. Segment-style score digits and spare ships at top left. At the end the letters rush past the camera and the loop restarts.
```

## Visual DNA

- Thin glowing beam lines on pure black, bright dots where the beam dwells
- Extruded wireframe letters in a straight-segment stroke font
- Phosphor persistence: moving lines leave fading trails
- Letters fly in from depth spinning, then the word slowly yaws in 3D
- Jagged vector rocks, a triangular ship, dot bullets and line-burst explosions
- Segment-style score digits and spare ships
