I experience the same issue on my acer W510 (tablet computer running on Windows 8.1 Preview), Opacity seems to be disabled.

The game worked fine on Friday (apart from quite bad performances), but as soon as I got my internet connection back, it started behaving this way. The drivers were'nt updated (Intel 9.14.3.1102), and I think that Windows 8.1 didn't update neither. (As i side

Only two things left to do which is WAIT until the drivers are updated or the amazing FTL team releases a patch, and, of course,
