FTL: Advanced Edition
Description
FTL: Advanced Edition features:
- New systems, playable ships, alien race, weapons, drones, and more!
- A new sector with new events, written by Tom Jubert and special guest writer Chris Avellone!
- New music by Ben Prunty!
Did you ever want to reroute power to the shields, set phasers to stun, or even eject the warp core? Well, now you can! In FTL, you experience the atmosphere of running a spaceship trying to save the galaxy. It's a dangerous mission, with every encounter presenting a unique challenge with multiple solutions. What will you do if a heavy missile barrage shuts down your shields? Reroute all power to the engines in an attempt to escape, power up additional weapons to blow your enemy out of the sky, or take the fight to them with a boarding party? This "spaceship simulation roguelike-like" allows you to take your ship and crew on an adventure through a randomly generated galaxy filled with glory and bitter defeat.
FTL's complex strategic gameplay allows you to give orders to your crew, manage ship power distribution, and choose weapon targets in the heat of battle. You will encounter unique alien lifeforms and technology. You can upgrade your ship and unlock new ones with the help of six diverse alien races. Be the Captain you want: hundreds of text based encounters will force you to make tough decisions. In the randomized galaxy each play-through will feature different enemies, events, and results to your decisions. Each time you play another challenging session of FTL: Faster Than Light, it won't be quite the same.

Best Indie Game EVEAAAAH
I actually bought this game on Steam and LOVE it! It's a fairly simple game overall but offers many complexities with strategies and the randomly generated events. Great game and well worth the purchase!

I have more fun rolling dice than this.
Here one of my experience playing this game: 1. Explore a lifeless ship. End up losing a crew member. (F***) 2. Encounter an enemy ship that nearly sunk my ship. (*U**) 3. Found a trade station, but can't hire anyone because money was used up to fix the ship. (**C*) 4. Encounter another enemy ship that hack my pilot cockpit. (***K) 5. My ship can't evade any incoming hits. (......) 6. My ship blows up. The End. (F**KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK) This game is filled with lots of bad game designs that diminish player winning chance. Especially by randomization. I would describe this game as: rolling a 6-face dice, anything besides 6, you lose. Even so, I regard this game has less than 16-17% winning chance.
