We don't have any plans for a lighter version at the moment. Right now we're focusing on content for new updates. The best option for you would be to try older versions of Multiverse until you find something playable, though we get that this isn't ideal. You can find an archive of older MV downloads on our discord: Discord.gg

Your integrated graphics should probably be fine, but Multiverse will struggle with less than 8GB of ram, and you'll likely run into some issues. Long loading times are something you'll just have to deal with, unfortunately.

You'll need to downgrade to 1.6.9 to play Multiverse. This is automatically done with the included installer assuming your game is vanilla.
Alternatively, Hyperspace has an included downgrader as a part of its installation, with a very simple process: Ftl-hyperspace.github.io

Hey, we can help you better for more specific problems at our discord : Discord.com

Yes. GOG Galaxy has an included downgrade feature, which you can use to downgrade to 1.6.9 so you can install the mod.

Some antiviruses will mark the installer as a false-positive for viruses, so you'll have to go into your antivirus and make an exception for it. If you're particularly uncomfortable with using the .exe, you can try installing manually instead

Sometimes running multiverse can be janky. Troubleshooting guide here: Reddit.com

TLDR; Some fixes for multiverse starting but not finishing loading are:
- running FTL in Windows 7/XP compatibility mode
- closing other programs to free up RAM (v5.4 has trouble with 8GB)
- minimising FTL while it loads/launching the game minimised

The installer automatically does everything directly onto FTL so you select the Steam FTL directory and let it do the work

Yes, you just set the installer to the directory with the Steam version of FTL in it

Sounds like it didn't properly downgrade.
If you're using a non-Steam version like the one from Epic Games you'll need to use a specific downgrader linked here: Ftl-hyperspace.github.io
