+[Boat Journey][boat-journey-itch] ([Github][boat-journey-github]) is a turn-based game where you drive a boat through a
+procedurally-generated landscape on a voyage along a river destined for the
+ocean. Accept passengers to have them help you on your journey. Fight monsters,
+collect junk, trade the junk for fuel, use the fuel to travel to the ocean.
+
+Features:
+
+- Large procedurally-generated world
+- Turn the boat at 45 degree increments
+- Text-only graphics. You can play it in a terminal if you like!
+- Hand-drawn ansi-art character portraits
+- You can take on a ghost as a passenger and then become a ghost yourself.
