From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
|
Star Voyager is a first-person space shooter designed by Bob Smith for the Atari 2600 and published in 1982 by Imagic. In the game, the player has to save the Capital Starport (although the player never sees it in the game). A two-player mode allows two people to become either the Star Voyager or the enemy fleet. The commander of the Star Voyager has the ability to use photon torpedoes or a laser beam in order to stop the enemy. Star portals play a role in transporting the Star Voyager into another part of the galaxy. The game ends when the player dies or when he runs out of energy.
