FTL on windows tablets

Post by vaylen »

I just got a Surface Pro 3 and decided to buy the Steam FTL to go along with the GOG FTL I had been playing on my PC. This way I could share my progress across all my computers.

The big wish I had playing FTL on the Surface (or any Win tablet, really) is that there is no on-screen button to pause the game. You HAVE to connect a keyboard in order to pause. This is kinda lame. I'm willing to play on the tablet without all the tablet-friendly mods you made for the iPad version, but not having pause? C'mon! An on-screen pause button would allow me to play anywhere.

Make it so!!!

Hm, yeah I see your point. That's probably something the devs should look into. :|

In the meantime, have you tried using a program like Gestureworks Gameplay to rig up an onscreen spacebar? That program costs $15 through steam, but there's probably some free alternatives out there.
