Other Games / Transistor - The makers of Bastion go sci-fi
« on: May 07, 2014, 06:20:31 pm »
Seeing as how the pre-order is now up on Steam, (it's coming out on the 20th of this month) I feel like this game deserves a page.
Transistor is Supergiant Games' follow-up to Bastion. Not a sequel of any sort (as far as I've seen) but a separate story about a woman named Red who wields a weapon called the Transistor - the awesome-looking sword in the pictures, as you have probably already gathered.
The game features a strategic combat system that revolves around the ability to stop time and execute a series of actions instantaneously once a recharging bar fills up. The art looks very similar to Bastion, which is a plus in my book, there will be cool voiceovers throughout just as there were in Bastion, and the song in the trailer of the steam page really makes me want to buy it already.
It looks really pretty, and they did a fantastic job with Bastion, so I have real high hopes for this one. What do you guys think?
