For those not familiar with the game;
Faster Than Light is a spaceship-roguelike thing game, not really my kind of genre so I'd suggest just having a look at the website rather than me trying to explain it all.
As I mentioned; not really my kind of game but I figured for $10 it's worth a shot. So far I'm really enjoying it, but I haven't gotten past the first batch of sectors yet as I keep getting killed towards the end every time, and that's on easy. I can generally make my way through most of it, the part that usually mortally wounds me is whenever they board my ship.
So basically, I was wondering if anyone playing it here could offer some advice for someone not too experienced with this; what to upgrade first, how to handle getting boarded etc.
Maybe make this a general FTL thread if there's an interest for it as there hasn't been a proper one yet, at least not that I've seen. I've seen the game mentioned in a few threads and there was a small thread about it, but nothing special.
For those interested in it; I recommend giving it a whirl; it's cheap, well-made and, if you're the sort that's interested in indie games, it's a developer that's well worth supporting.
If you're in Europe, like me, buy it through the Humble store rather than the Steam store as Steam just replaces the $ with a €, which makes it more expensive. Don't think they do that when converting to £ though, so UK residents should be fine with either option, although the Humble store does give you a Steam key as well.
