MineStorm Pico
Tread lightly! The transport lanes of intergalactic space have been seeded with mines from an alien vessel.
Use your mine destroying blaster to blow up the mines before they annihilate you! You may survive the floating mines, but beware of the fireball, magnetic, and treacherous fireball-magnetic mines!
. . . many fields, each one more difficult, await you!

Pilot's commentary section below:
Good, @TomCoding. Not terribly happy if you die every enemy is respawned for that level. I mean that's why you died so often it's a repeated death. OK.
You're almost there, @TomCoding. It redoes the level if you are hit by the flying saucer. It does NOT for other enemies, which is great.
Great job capturing the super-distinctive aesthetics of the Vectrex, I especially like the on-screen title text, it's spot-on.🙂
LOVE this. More Pico Vectrex games! Bizarrely vector graphics games seem to work really well on the Pico screen, and the "overlay" makes it super-evocative.
(Personally I'd much rather have Thrust on a button and Hyperspace on Down, but each to their own.)
