Voyager-19
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Voyager-19 is a short horror game where you control a decaying spacecraft exploring distant star systems.
Features:
- Explore different star systems
- Photograph planets with a slow display camera
- Record radio waves coming off planets
- Navigate star systems with a basic star map
- Manage what systems get power as your nuclear battery decays
- Struggle to see as pixels die from interstellar radiation

Story
With the invention of hibernation technologies it is now possible for humans to travel to the stars. However, the Magella Science Expedition, the first manned mission to other star systems, has been declared missing after failing to establish communications.
You have been chosen to captain the hastily designed Voyager-19 space probe; a rudimentary spacecraft equipped with a hibernation pod and fractional light-speed capable engines, to search for the missing science mission.

I'm poor.
loved how immerse I was in this game, really cool idea and execution. I'd play more of this with more mechanics and more lore, for sure.
that was soooooo good!!! i love stuff like this
Gave this game a Voice Actor playthrough! Awesome vibe on this one, we loved it on the channel!
In this IRON LUNG Style Game, PLANETS Are Trying to EAT You | Voyager-19
I unfortunately can't get it to load even the title screen or otherwise. It's just a black, blank screen. I can hear sound but that's it. It doesn't respond...
I'm having the same problem as well, Whenever I press the spacebar I can still hear some sounds but can't see anything.
I thought it was free. [ i have literally 0 dollars ]
broke as hell
lol, mood tbh.
its definitely worth 4 bucks (a Big Mac Meal costs 12 bucks 💀)
Apk please??
im not affiliated with the game or creator at all, but i dont think there is an APK, this is probably a PC only game
awww :(
All the games ever made can't be ported to mobile platforms, most of developers making them for consoles or computers without plans to port them.
It's hard to port them, sometimes you even need to make everything from scratch or fully change the gameplay only for port. Even the system requirments affect it.
You need to respect all the work that developer did.
really enjoyed it, it's actually the first time i play a game of this kind, very captivating and the way the story uncovers is great.
Absolutely worth $4. Good work everyone
idk if its worth 3 pounds but it is very, very good
Cool. I liked.
Great game, it's very unsettling, great jumpscares. Full gameplay on my YouTube.
already?!
Ackshually, my car has a fractional light-speed capable engine as well 🤓
!🤓 Nerd alert 🤓! cool, you sent off my nerd alert.
pretty good and well designed game. Its kind of similar to iron lung but you are space but other than I enjoyed it
this was a good game, I loved every bit of it! space is amazing!~ the ending was awesome!
It was cool being eaten by a super huge living creature that tried to cosplay a planet 💀
Once I got the controls down and understood what I was doing. This was insanely fun and that jump scare at the end definitely got me. Can't wait to see more from you. Voyager 19 starts at 0:54:04
When I watched a gameplay video of it, what was that planetary mimicking creature supposed to be, at first I never seen a cosmic predator before until I have seen it on Manly's video. What is involved in the missing ship as well as swallowing up the current ship you're playing as.
Absolutely amazing! Scared the crap out of me in the best way. The ending... holy hell.
Loved it! I'm sure you'll be hearing Iron Lung comparisons until the space cows come home, but I honestly think this is much more fun. Awesome work!
fun. Nicely done.
Needs something to bind it all together like the old star trek plot "save the enterprise before its destroyed by taking these space pictures so Bones can come up with a serum for space madness."
The encrypted files made no sense for me.
The progressive loss of power was never explained or I missed it.
Needs some slight narrative adjustments. I liked it.
The progressive lack of power is because the spacecraft is powered with a RTG. As the radioactive isotopes age, they heat up progressively less.
This is a direct reference to Voyager 1/2's RTGs.
Apk for free please? 🙏😍
How about supporting devs for their hard work instead?
Are you broke?
yeah
man...
i just know this game is gonna blow up and yters finna play it
¿cuantas versiones de este juego hay? este juego es bueno para los que quieren conocer algo del espacio.like
please more of this. so cool
Humanity spend 19 voyagers to released what they can put human on it.
gosh i love when the sci-fi gets eldritch !!!
Same. I love space horror.
Does anyone know if there are multiple endings? It feels like I should be able to do something extra on the final mission but not entirely sure.
I'm wondering the same thing... If there was a proper end game screen or something I'd assume it's just what is supposed to happen. However, since the button on the screen after you die says "Begin" and it takes you back to the main menu with an option to "Continue" it makes it seem like it's a Game Over screen instead of the intended end of the game. Am I missing something??
The last mission of this game is worth the price of admission alone. Just a magical ending that really pulled me into the dark fantasy the game's going for.
I like the "figure out your space ship controls on your own" method of introducing the game. It left me with some questions. I thought i was going juggle my life support to finish a mission, but i never had to in the end (unless i didn't find the correct ending). Interesting concept. I think it could be refined more
Are you up for a co-op bundle to join?

Hi! Would love to try out a demo of this game. Any change you'd add it? :)
the game is only about 30 minutes long anyway. A demo would be silly tbh.
Every picture i take = NOT CENTERED
I dont get it.
are you using opengl or vulkan?
how in the actual hell did this game make my GTX 1650's temperature rise to 71C(base is usually 30-35C) despite having very simplistic graphics
please, please please optimize the game!
even Buckshot Roulette runs with better temps than this!(max 50C)
game and concept's really cool and I bought it on launch, though I only played it for ~2 minutes(3 planets into the first mission) before I got worried, as no other indie game(or game I own, for that matter) has made my gpu heat up this much and I didn't wanna risk severe overheating
game ran just fine at 60fps otherwise
if you update and optimise the game I'll happily change the review to something actually related to the game instead of me complaining about temperature issues
sorry :(
someone else mentioned it was maxing gpu and running at 2500fps, I'm going to add a vsync option today and can check if that fixes it
Good news, your fix worked! My GPU isn't screaming in agony anymore.
In the future, please consider adding vsync(or a frame limiter) by default to your 3D titles.
Thank you so much!!! :D
Voyager-19 has high "fun density": for its little content, it is of high quality. The experience was atmospheric, and I loved it. Though a bit of a slow burner at first, the plot twist and climax are memorable -- I jumped out of my seat at least twice, and Voyager-19 my eyes wide open and my jaw agape at the end.
Absolutely worth $4.00 USD for its ~30 minutes of fun.
Game is very interesting and fun up to where you have very little power, making it so for every action that'd take 5 seconds previously, it now takes 15, to set up everything right. Iron Lung, that definitely inspired this game, had the mechanic of actually piloting the ship through a tight map, and that made the 'just doing your job waiting for something to happen' part way more fun than just pressing buttons like in this game. One other thing is that the things you'd take pictures of in Iron Lung were actually kind of interesting, big teeth and bones, something I didn't feel with voyager-19 as most of them were just normal planets with eerie sounds. This is just my opinion though, sorry if this seems harsh, this game is very polished and has a really good concept. Hope this helps!
Great game Miziziziz! I've been following the devlogs and was looking forward to picking this up as soon as it was available.
One minor feedback point: The screen noise by mission 4 makes it very very hard to read text at all. I know it's used for effect but potentially if the noise could be dampened around text somehow? Or maybe some other effect to portray decay. I hope this helps!
Isn't the point of the noise to make it hard to read the text? Isn't that why it's there
In the description it says "Struggle to see as pixels die from interstellar radiation"
i think thats literally the point if you want to read the text you can decrypt the one you havent read sooner in the game
i did not play the game im just commenting
