My god...it's stunning!

By man a 2014 release, that's one hell of a long wait. Super excited, hopefully this gets a steam release right out of the gate this time.

wrowa · Mar 19, 2013

The cyberpunk trend continues.

darkressurection · Mar 19, 2013

Loved Bastion, and this looks just as awesome. Absolutely can't wait.

Thank God for that; this looks awesome.

Zaph · Mar 19, 2013

Looks stunning. Jen Zee is an amazing artist.

Manbig · Mar 19, 2013

Looks like if Vanillaware had made a game with the Bastion engine.

Banana Kid · Mar 19, 2013

I love the art, but if it plays like Bastion I don't think I'll be into it. I really wanted to love that game, but something about the way it played just turned me off.

Mpl90 · Mar 19, 2013

Is it just me or this has some Japanese influence in chara design? Looks great.

Remachinate · Mar 19, 2013

I love their art sensibility. Another action RPG though? I really liked Bastion but towards the end the gameplay was feeling worn out. Maybe they'll deepen the mechanics for this one.

Kade · Mar 19, 2013

Looks really awesome.

i-Lo · Mar 19, 2013

Looks like vanguards of quantum computing taking over transistor city.

Beautiful art style.

CorySchmitz · Mar 19, 2013

Looks so good. But that music :/

The Wizard · Mar 19, 2013

Looks fantastic. I'm down for anything made by Super Giant Games after Bastion, which was excellent.

Hot Coldman · Mar 19, 2013

Saw the tweet from Greg and almost fell out of my chair.

Looks gorgeous. Is that original music too? Sounded great.

sn00zer · Mar 19, 2013

Aww man...love the art style...just not the gameplay....would love a more 3d-game with it...reminds me of stuff by Mucha

Dark Octave · Mar 19, 2013

The art is nice.

Jb · Mar 19, 2013

2.5D... hopefully their combat will be a step up. Looks very nice artistically.

Dusky · Mar 19, 2013

Sci-fi RPG? I'm in.

Thought Bastion was a good game.

CorySchmitz said:

I liked it.

Syril · Mar 19, 2013

That looks awesome. I'll get anything they do after Bastion.

RPGCrazied · Mar 19, 2013

Hope this gets on the PSN this time, unlike Bastion. Never got to play that one, this looks really cool though.

UberTag · Mar 19, 2013

That's some astounding eye candy.
I'd love to see an SNES Shadowrun remake with that art style.

What's wrong with the music? Sounded great and fitting.

somesayyea · Mar 19, 2013

very cool - loved bastion so i'm looking forward to this. hopefully it comes out early in 2014

XANDER CAGE · Mar 19, 2013

Wow, that looks awesome. I love the character design; fits the art more than Bastion's character models did. That was the one discrepancy I lamented in that game; the art was so much cooler for The Kid outside of the game.

Everything about Bastion was great except for actually playing the game. I felt bored with it after getting to the 1st boss. This doesn't look like that great of departure from bastion.

Scanna · Mar 19, 2013

first Xbox 720 exclusive perhaps?
that no-console announcement looks fishy to me...
pure speculation though

btw, game looks marvelous

JordanKZ · Mar 19, 2013

Really great art work and the animation looks cool too.

But another 2.5D action game? I wish they would have branched out and done something else.

Nillansan · Mar 19, 2013

Gorgeous.

I feel like doing a second play through of Bastion.

NemesisPrime · Mar 19, 2013

Looks great.

Is that you Riven?

dancrane212 · Mar 19, 2013

Well have an early build playable this week at PAX East at our booth #892

Awesome! I was wondering what Supergiant was going to have at their booth.

Santiako · Mar 19, 2013

Bastion was a flawless game, so I'm really excited for this. I hope the game is narrated again.

CheesecakeRecipe · Mar 19, 2013

Visually it looks fantastic, but so did Bastion. I may have been one of three people in the universe that Bastion did not hook, so here's hoping Transistor does the trick this time.

What about it? Too awesome?

Proposed Law · Mar 19, 2013

Wow! Excited for whatever this company does.

ponpo · Mar 19, 2013

What's with the slowdown? Looks nice though.

Wario64 · Mar 19, 2013

Looks great. Seems like it'll be playable at PAX this week

ezekial45 · Mar 19, 2013

Wonderful. It looks stunning.

cjkeats · Mar 19, 2013

Day zero. Don't let me down Supergiant!

I do hope they are able to differentiate themselves on gameplay as well, because damn if they haven't already on art and soundtrack already, that alone makes me want to try it.

Mechazawa · Mar 19, 2013

Yo, sup with that walking animation.

funkystudent · Mar 19, 2013

So its future Bastion?

Cool.

Also its good to know what GiantBombs 2014 Downloadable GOTY will be this far in advance.

Scanna said:

I guess like most indie games these days it will be announce for Steam and a console release will be investigated.

Sony seem to be picking up disgruntled XBLA developers left and right so who knows. I think Supergiant have one of the few indies who didnt have anything bad to say about there XBLA experience over the last few years so who knows.

I don't think the music is bad, it was just kinda jarring for me. Didn't mean no disrespect!

rakhir · Mar 19, 2013

Yeah, I think i'll buy every game made by those guys.

And you're crazy if you didn't like the music, it's superb.

Hot Coldman said:

Yeah, the same guy that did Bastion music - Darren Korb. Same singer too, she sang in 'Build That Wall'

Visualante2 · Mar 19, 2013

Looks a little more tactical in the rhythm of the game, but maybe that's just the edit?

Messofanego · Mar 19, 2013

Can't wait for the combat. The combat in Bastion was great in that you could have any weapon combo and it'd be as legitimate an optimal strategy as anything else.

Decado · Mar 19, 2013

I hope it has a substantially improved combat system. Bastion is beautiful, but the gameplay isn't terribly compelling.

Wes · Mar 19, 2013

CorySchmitz said:

I agree. That damn music - why isn't that track already released seperately in a fuller form because it sounds great.

dark10x · Mar 19, 2013

Hmmm...I seriously thought it was perfect for that type of imagery. What kind of music would you have preferred?

gdt · Mar 19, 2013

Visually it looks stunning. But it looks like it plays similar to Bastion...which was solid enough but I was hoping for a new and improved combat/traversal/movement system. Still, Day 1.
