Faster Than Light is by far one of my favorite indie games to play recently. I picked it up over the summer and immediately sank 12 hours into it over the course of a few days. Its really addicting in its nature mainly because of how far the mechanics seem to range from simple to complex. You can either play it in a very relaxed state of mind, get to the end with little strategy, and be obliterated (Which is still enjoyable) Or attempt to micro manage and strategically customize every single detail of your ship to make a valiant attempt at survival.
The general gist of the game is that you start off with a weak, poorly equipped and manned crew. As you travel through space you kill other ships and collect scrap/weapons/people to increase your odds of winning and increase your destructive firepower. Ultimately the goal is to make it to the end to Destroy the Federation... a very challenging task.

Game Description (From Steam)
In FTL you experience the atmosphere of running a spaceship trying to save the galaxy. It's a dangerous mission, with every encounter presenting a unique challenge with multiple solutions. What will you do if a heavy missile barrage shuts down your shields?
