The fairly recently founded Daedalic West (2014) have been working hard on a game that could be described as a more fleshed out and advanced FTL: Faster Than Light or perhaps as a 2D take on No Man's Sky.

We were privy to a demo of the game during GDC and came away impressed. The premise is simple, during mankind's first proper experiment with warp drive the highly advanced ship was taken across the galaxy and now it needs to find its way home in a procedurally generated universe with lots of dangers and mysteries to explore.

It's a roguelike at its core and the crew mates you pick dictate what sort of secrets you can uncover and thus what sort of missions you'll unlock. You'll also need to land on planets to scavenge and find resources, try and communicate with aliens (not very easy at first as discovering alien languages is a complicated process here) and perhaps you'll need to use your diplomatic or targeting skills as well.

Anyway, below is the teaser trailer from GDC and a few screenshots - we'll have an interview on GRTV in the not so distance future, so keep an eye out for that.
