Ben-DutkaIt's definitely one of the more colorful, artistic games we've seen.
Supergiant Games is about to deliver Transistor to the PlayStation 4 and PC; it will be available next week, on May 20.
The launch trailer gives you a look at the anticipated title's singular style, and we also get a peek at the enemies we'll be facing. There's a talking sword, too, which is always worth mentioning (I always got a thrill whenever my Sword Familiar said something in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night ). At any rate, the gameplay appears to be ultra-engaging and quite original, which translates to one word: Refreshing .
As I've said many times before, if you want something different in this industry, you really need to check out the digital and indie scene.

Loved Bastion and I'm sure I will love this. The art style is just so nice. Hopefully the gameplay is solid as well.
Looks great i just might pick this one up..
Yes. I love the art direction here. I read about the artist during Bastion's launch. I like the original art style that draws anime influences but doesn't fall into the realm of generic anime that I see way too much of. I also dig her use of fluorescent colors.
I really hope SuperGaint nails it with this one. I think they have a shot at being the next That Game Company of the indie scene.
While I usually am turned off by indie games because many treat art direction as an afterthought, these guys appear to be firing on all cylinders.

Absolutely loved Bastion. Can't wait for Transistor! I'm it's going to be great.
