"Visually, Lonestar has some similarities with Subset Games' pre-Into the Breach release, FTL. It starts you off with a choice of pilots and ships."
"In each round, the enemy will fire its attack units, launching a beam of energy straight out toward your ship. You have a limited amount of fuel that you can use to simply dodge one or more attacks."
Lonestar, launched in April 2025, has received notable praise on Steam for its take on tactical gameplay akin to Into the Breach. The game features a roguelike structure where players choose pilots and ships, embarking on bounty-hunting missions across a galaxy. While it bears visual resemblances to FTL, its combat revolves around using dice rolls to counter enemy attacks, adding a layer of strategy. Although the game lacks character depth within its galaxy, the combat mechanics and unique bounty descriptions enhance player engagement, making it a notable entry in sci-fi strategy gaming.
