FTL: Faster Than Light

FTL is an indie space sim roguelike that costs $9.99.

The gameplay consists of a top down space simulation where the player must control the crew of the craft as well as all of the resources needed to run it. Much like a roguelike game the world is randomly generated in eight different sectors of space. The goal for the layer is to make it through these sectors without dying as there are enemies that will be attacking.
