times uh especially during the Steam summer sale when it was super cheap so no problem no problem um so transistor is not basan 2 it is its own game entirely what else can you tell me about transistor the transistor is the new science fiction themed action PG from uh super giant games the creators of Bastion uh we have the whole team back together again to to work on this next project with a

basian and that's a really big point because they're bringing back stuff like uh audio that the the the music that they had in the previous game was so good and very very well known I have I bought the soundtrack and listened to it actively even though I beat the game a long time ago and their narrator people like him so much they're buying audio packs for Dota 2 so they can listen to him while

give away too much but uh but basically what we have here is the introduction of that of the of the sort of forces of antagonism that are that are trying to uh lock red down and and uh and you know the introduction to the game game play mechanics the transistor itself uh all its secrets and Mysteries and powers that we sort of let you uh unlock and wield over the course of the game cool cool and
