Musically, however, FTL is an absolute classic. We must admit, however, that the esthetics of the spaceships are very neat, and a lot of effort has been put into the interface and the readability of the action. With its low-resolution images, the game almost looks like a flash game that were all the rage a few years ago. Prepare for disappointment when your whole crew perishes due to a failure of the oxygen system, leaving your ship to drift forever in the vacuum of space! Simple and readable graphics ?matched by a mythical soundtrackįrom a graphics point of view, Faster Than Light is far from impressive. You quickly get attached to the little people in the spaceship, which is unfortunate given the omnipresence of death in Faster Than Light. By combining strategy, management, exploration, and role playing, FTL has managed to concoct fascinating gameplay, especially since the battle mechanisms are simple. The finesse of the gameplay is a great strength of Faster Than Light. Because your ship has a limited amount of resources you will need to allocate them according to each situation: don't hesitate to send the energy to your shields if you cross an asteroid field or to the engines so that you can escape from a dangerous situation. The interface of FTL is crystal clear: you divide your crew members according to the different equipment in the spaceship (weapons, shields, steering, etc.) while ensuring that equipment is properly supplied with power.
They are usually very hard to beat, making Faster Than Light a game that will last, even if the basics are simple to get a grip on. You have to completely cross the playing area (each part is randomly generated for a different experience each time) and then beat the final boss. Numerous spaceships are available, each with its own type of weapons (laser, missiles, ion cannons) and its crew.
First and foremost, Faster Than Light concentrates on the atmosphere, and in particular, the joy of discovery: you're never likely to finish exploring all the intricacies of the game and unlocking the many hidden spaceships.
