Really looking forward to the finalized version of this! Unfortunately so far I've been stumped with trouble with the file extension. Since I run FTL through Wine on Ubuntu (admittedly I'm fairly new to the OS), it doesn't seem like a simple renaming of .zip to .ftl has been working; no matter how m...
I'd also like to see an open universe with exploration. The existing combat/systems management mechanics work well. But think how interesting the game would be if it also had a procedurally generated universe to explore, trade, etc. I think someone posted this earlier in the thread, but the "I...
For everyone who keeps requesting an "Infinite" sandbox mode, there's a mod for that . It's still being worked on, but is playable in its current form. While you can't control which sectors you hop to (no backtracking across Mantis Homeworld nodes, for instance), it's still a great deal o...

In FTL the only thing I found less than stellar after a few playthroughs is t...
Personally while I find the overall game to be luck-based[...] In all fairness to the game, the word "luck-based" means (ostensibly) that the core gameplay is based on luck. An example would be Candyland. It's all luck. FTL, on the other hand, like Poker, has a heavy luck element. Some pe...
I agree the music is excellent. Personally while I find the overall game to be luck-based, the micromanagement (crisis management) is very entertaining and unique. Definitely reminds me of Star Trek ("Beam them over, Scotty! GIORDI FIX THOSE ENGINES!! Commander Worf...please stop missing...Nice...
