FTL: A space based roguelike

How on EARTH did I manage to miss this? It looks absolutely STELLAR!

WTF is FTL?
Chronicles of the Stars <- Some gameplay by me.

D'ohoho, I see what you did there.

I just saw that myself, and it looks out of this world. I'd love to give it an honest shot.

Yup, been excited about this for a while now! Envious of those playing it now; but it's just around the corner anyway!

This looks like a fantastic gem. I love games where death is both imminent and amusing. This game also looks like it would really benefit from a self-imposed no-pause condition, I imagine that'll really ramp up the frantic panic factor.

Any idea what price this will hit steam for?

I'm disappointed in you all.
I was hoping we would keep going with the space puns.

Everyone spaces out from time to time. We can't always stay on target.
Life is short. Have fun.

I am playing it. :D  Was lucky to find it during the kickstarter.

It's so much more fun playing than watching.  :D  It's well worth every penny.

Good, then maybe I'll have time to make the Kessel Run before it gets released. :)

This game has ruined my usual co-op weekend AI War sessions. >:(

I got my kicks mostly out of the way during the closed beta, but suddenly Friday hit, and everyone on my friends list is showing three simple letters.
