This is a remake of the ZX Spectrum game of the same name, written by Hitman of Retro-Remakes fame, and really is dire! The playability of this game is probably less than the download time!

But, just to prove it is because the original game was pish and not because I am crud, I have included the original snapshot in with the zip - run it in you favourite emulator and be prepared to be disappointed! I have included the source code to help anyone who is trying to learn Blitz Basic - it is extremely easy to follow as there are comments on nearly every line of code! If you can't decide whether to give Blitz a go or not, you can just as easily open up the source code (voyager.bb) in a text editor and have a look at just how easy it really is.
