    Plays fine on my iPad Pro 9.7.

    However it is a "32 bit" app so shows the warning about slowing down your device. Normally this can be ignored but Apple is dropping support for 32 bit apps with next major iOS update so this will break it.

    A word of warning to any potential new purchasers out there ...

    I'm keeping my iPad 2 around for exactly this reason. There are many useful apps out there especially in the music creation genre.

    I would imagine the dev will update if enough pressure is put on.

    (Edit) Good news from the FTL forum, the dev is "definitely" updating it. :cool:

    No they are not. The next iOS version aka 10.3 will add a new settings menu warning users that it might not work, nothing more, nothing less. For now, there's no reason to think that FTL will suddenly stop working.

    That's why I added "major". iOS 11 will not support 32 bit apps and it's not that far away.

    10.2 to 10.3 is a "minor release" not a major update.

    32 bit apps work for 10.3, version 11 will kill them.

    As I said a couple of posts ago, the developer will be updating FTL.

    Sorry, can't say, iPad Pro still on 10.2 here.

    I hear 10.3 generally gives some free storage space back though (new file system), handy for small devices.

    Holy crap! Maybe, just maybe this presages an iPad port of Into The Breach? A man can dream...

    Dammit. I intentionally didn’t buy the game during the Christmas sale because it hasn’t been updated for years.
