Anyone else think it would be awesome if there was an xbox version?

I play the xbox a llot, so i, personally, would love to see a version of Ftl for it.

I was actually surprised to find out there wasn't an... anything, really... version of FTL. This game would be perfect on pretty much any device.

I think people underestimate just how much precision a mouse brings. Menu navigating, ok, possible on touch or controller etc. Combat is a little more tricky. Drawing pixel-precise beams with mouse is hard enough, good luck doing it on a touch screen when your finger is blocking the view. On controller it maybe be a little more possible.

That being said, a mobile port is what the devs are spending their time on currently. So, have patience, and go check out the lovely mods available for this game ;)
