# FTL Save File Manager
## Description
FTL Save File Manager is a utility designed to manage save files for the game FTL: Faster Than Light.
- Backup: Automatically saves your progress after a jump.
- Restore: Allows you to restore save files, but only while in the game's main menu.
This project also serves as a learning experience to enhance Python programming skills and gain confidence with Git.
**Note: Currently, only the active game state is managed. The profile file (ae_prof.sav), which contains achievements and unlocks, is not included in backups.**
