LD43 - Cold Galaxy

Compo entry for Ludum Dare 43; made in under 48 hours.

When you were nine, your parents died at the hands of slavers.
You were fourteen when you killed a man in self defense.
At  eighteen, you led your crewmates in a mutiny and took command of a pirate vessel.

Life has taught you well:
This galaxy is not your friend.
Others must die for you to survive.
Sacrifices must be made.

Inspired by FTL. Lead your crew to certain doom and destruction while trying to avoid a mutiny. As you explore, your crew will level up and gain traits -- some good, some bad. Earn money, upgrade your crew capacity, and fight off psychic raiders as you navigate through a cold galaxy.

Recommended listening: your favorite ambient space mix!
