“At first time the game looks... strange, but a little later it starts to show pictures of incredible beauty and depth, is like art exhibition about transcending artificial intelligence.”

“I really liked that there is a lot of mystery of what I will find next or discover. The beginning part almost lost me though”

“It's pretty cool, but I'm not sure who would want to play this.”

About This Game

Transcender: A Beginning is a brief interactive experience that takes place in a surreal sci-fi setting. Figuring out how to play and what to do is the main attraction of the experience. A single playthrough can last between 10 to 30 minutes but it takes multiple playthroughs to discover everything the game has to offer. It also features artwork by BrokeBot that you can collect and view in a gallery.

Who would enjoy this?

Are you the type of person who has spent a lifetime playing many different types of games? Do you love playing games or watching movies without knowing what to expect? Do you like experimental games or nongames? Do you love short games? If so, then this might be for you.

Free for a limited time?

Yes, I just want people to play my game. Once I feel like there's an audience who enjoys it AND I feel there are no game breaking bugs AND I'm progressing well on episode two, then it will no longer be free.

Episode 2: The Room

It'll be ready when it's ready. The only expectations should be 'another 20-30 minutes of 'interesting' gameplay set in the Transcender universe. I also aim to have your 'decisions' from episode one carry forward and make an impact in episode two. (if I can figure it out)

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Currently contains one optional act of violence (shark attack). Future episodes might contain more violence and mature themes.
