      Yeah, have had many coffees, does nothing unfortunately. I think I just need more sleep to pay back the debt I have incurred.

      I did play some FTL yesterday, and promptly died on the last sector. So maybe I’ll give that a go again, until I feel able to have a nap

            I just played the tutorial and I’m not sure I really like it. It reminds me of a more fleshed out version of a mobile game I used to play called seedship

              It seems to have a wild difficulty curve, even on easy, but focusing on a specific build seems to help. It’s addictive after a bit. Make use of the pause function and help distress signals for free-ish upgrades for sure

              I mean, if you don’t gel with the combat then yeah its probably not for you. But there are other builds. Drones, transporters, mind control and hacking plus different weapon types.

        it took me AGES to beat on easy! the first win I had to have the mrs co-captaining with me. But the excitement for when you finally beat it is huge!

          Bruh it was the first time I made it to sector 8/last sector on easy haha! Had drones and some ion cannons, but

          spoilers

          That end boss rebel flagship is wild! Barely did anything to it. Then my partner got home and was like “you know it has three phases?” And my head exploded hahaha

          I love rogue-likes/lites and sci-fi, so this is right up my alley. The last time I had this much fun was Binding of Isaac (hands-down my favourite).

            Same! It was BRUTAL! But I loved it! And I mean, if you’re not sitting there in your mind shouting “action stations! set condition one through the ship!” and “Fire Torpedoes, full flack field!” what are you even doing!?
