Ordering PCB's
OSHPark is a good place to order with purple or the new "after dark" theme color scheme. You can upload the KiCad vectrex-stereo-ay.kicad_pcb there directly. I would download this entire Github repo ZIP file first though instead of just trying to save the PCB file from your browser.
Another way to order PCB's is by using the included gerbers-tall-design and uploading those with all of the necessary specs to companies like PCBWay or JLCPCB

Questions
How big is the Vectrex stereo ay PCB?
It measures 20.8 × 36.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Vectrex stereo ay use?
12 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Vectrex stereo ay KiCad files?
From the technobly/vectrex-stereo-ay repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/vectrex-stereo-ay.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Vectrex stereo ay design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask technobly before reusing the design.
