Description

FTL is a spaceship simulation roguelike-like. Its aim is to recreate the atmosphere of running a spaceship exploring the galaxy (like Firefly/Star Trek/BSG etc.) In any given episode of those classic shows, the captain is always yelling “Reroute power to shields!” or giving commands to the engineer now that their Warp Core is on fire. We wanted that experience, as opposed to the “dog fighting in space” that most videogames focus on. We wanted a game where we had to manage the crew, fix the engines, reroute power to shields, target the enemy life support, and then figure out how to repel the boarders that just transported over!

Operating system: Intel Mac OSX 10.5.8+
Processor: 2 GHz
RAM: 1 GB
Hard drive space: 175 MB
Video: OpenGL 2.0, minimum resolution of 1280×720, dedicated card recommended

Important notes:

The minimum resolution is a hard set requirement.
ATI dropped all driver support for Windows 8 for cards from the HD 4000 series and earlier. This may cause problems with FTL if running Windows 8 with an older ATI card.
Dedicated graphics cards are more reliable, but it’s been known to work on the Intel HD Integrated cards.
