Supergiant Games first game Bastion was an enjoyable fantasy adventure. Being one of the best indie games released in the last few years its isometric hack-n-slash gameplay mixed well with a simple but enjoyable story held together by a gravely-voiced narrator. “Transistor”, Supergiant’s new game, seems to be the sci-fi evolution from Bastion’s fantasy vibe. The visuals seem much more refined than Bastion and looks like it will tell a more complex story as well.
Here is what Supergiant had to say about their new game:
“In Transistor, players assume the role of a young woman who gains control of a powerful weapon after a mysterious group of assailants nearly kills her with it. Now she must fight from street to street against forces that will stop at nothing to recover the weapon. During the course of the adventure, players will piece together the Transistor’s mysteries as they pursue its former owners.
We expect Transistor to be released in early 2014. We have not yet decided on which platform or platforms the game will be available for.”
