FTL - The Hardest Game Under 10$

[DemolitionSquid]

Holy crap, this game is HARD.

Completely random events and enemy spawns? Check.
Forced side-scrolling via timed "firewall chase?" Check.
No reload feature, only save and quit? Check.
Steep learning curve? Check.

I'm three jumps into sector 2 and WTF solar flare lightning my fucking ship on fire as my oxygen runs out. Plus there's an enemy pirate ship with 3 shields I can't bypass because I've encountered no shops to restock my missiles. Jesus Christ.

Discuss your pain with me, fellow captains.

I've played it. It forces you to accept failure and death. And then you start again, and again. Until you win and it's 6.00 am in the morning and you need to go to work...

One of my favorite games.

I don't have any horror stories of my own voyages available off the top of my head, but if you want to see someone seriously crash and burn, watch Day9's play through.

It's so painful to watch.

The Federation expects nothing less. Get back to the fight soldier!

Fake difficulty isn't difficult.

I think I beat it twice. No more then that. Quite a fun and hard game. Died many times.
