Distant Friends

Distant Friends is one of the achievements in Into the Breach.

The achievement is unlocked by rescuing a special Pilot from a Strange Pod. The pod must be summoned using a "strange object" which rarely spawns inside glowing marked Mountain or Ice Tiles.

Trivia

 * The achievement, as well as the Pilots, are a reference to Subset Games's earlier title, FTL: Faster than Light.
