You are able to man some of these systems with your crew to gain some small boosts, depending on what system it is. The ships themselves have various room layouts, some of which contain your engine room, shields, weapons, cockpit, and so forth. As you progress through the game, you have the potential to unlock additional ships if you manage to meet the proper conditions for it. Initially you start out with a basic ship with a crew of humans and a few weapons. Other methods of gaining scrap are by randomly encountering a friendly vessel which might happen to provide you with scrap, or selling unwanted weapons at shops. The main way of getting scrap is by encountering other ships and killing them, or if you have the proper equipment, boarding the ship itself and killing off the crew, which will net you a larger reward. Scrap is required for pretty much anything you need to do in the game, from upgrading your ship, to buying weapons, ammo and repairs at shops, as well as purchasing new crew members (your initial starting crew consists of three people).
Speaking of supplies, everything in the game depends on a single currency scrap. Each of those locations can themselves have a randomized encounter, dealing from rebel scout ships, to shops, to friendly bases that will provide you with supplies. To progress through the game, you go through various sectors, with each sector containing a randomized map of locations that you can travel to. The premise of the game is that you are a star ship crew trying to get to your base to deliver some vital intel, all the while being chased by the rebels. The game itself is relatively simple in concept as well as in mechanics.
Trust me on this one.Īnyways, on to talking about the game.
Let me just start off by saying this if you are the kind of person who does not enjoy difficult games with lots of randomized encounters, this game is not for you. Recently, however, I ended up buying FTL: Faster Than Light on Steam. I haven't really been playing any new or exciting games, so that's the reason for that. Alright, another long gap between this post and the last one.
