Okay, two things: One, Voyager is a new iOS game made entirely out of wool; and two, we're going to do our very best to get through this whole article without making any sheep or cloth-related puns.

Rather than taking the traditional, blasé route of creating sprites and backgrounds with computers and stuff, one-man indie outfit Ken Amarit of Oh My! Me Studios opted instead to create his game out of needle-pointed wool and stop-motion animation techniques. The game itself is a tilt-controlled avoidance game where the player's adorable little space ship must avoid space debris and creatures while collecting things.

Voyager is both Retina Display-capable and a Universal app, and is available on the App Store right now for $0.99.

Next to the crew of the starship Voyager, only Konami's Time Pilot had a more blatant disregard for the temporal prime directive. If some people worry about changing history by stepping on a butterfly, Time Pilot tossed all that out a window by just blowing up anything in history's path to ... well, to do something we're not actually sure of -- but we're sure it was justified. Now Konami shows off their latest middle finger to the temporal prime directive: Time Ace.

DSFanboy has the pretty pictures of the After Burner-through-time re-imagining of Time Pilot. The game is expected to release next week for those who need a modern After Burner fix that has them blowing up pirate ships and anything else history puts in the way of your progress. Who needs a temporal prime directive, right Cpt. Janeway?
