FTL, short for Faster Than Light, is what Matthew Davis and Justin Ma, the creators of this game and owners of Subset Games, would like to call "A Spaceship Simulation Real-Time RougeLike-Like."
Some would say this game is nothing like a RogueLike, and some would disagree. Most would say it's a pretty damn fun game.
FTL is similar to a Dungeon-Crawler type game, only it exists in Outer Space, as you play as a crew aboard a single ship. You are apart of the Federation, a long lasting fleet of authority. But, your fleet was attacked by an army of Rebels, a recently overpowering fleet that fights against the authority of the Federation! You hold vital information that could end up killing off the Federation, if in the wrong hands! Fight off and run from the Rebels as you encounter randomized galaxies, planets, and other ships that could end up either helping you in your journey, or also killing you along the way.
You start your journey on The Kestral, or any name you wish to give to your ship. You have to jump across 8 sectors in order to reach the remaining fleet of Federation, but must empower your ship with the tools, weaponry, additional crew members, and the like that you find along the way--- All while the Rebel Fleet is tailing you; right behind your back.
