Transistor turns 5 years old

Transistor from Supergiant Games was released on this day five years ago; is their second game following Bastion, the RPG that launched the Indie studio back in 2011, since then they have been one of the most respected independent studios.

Transistor lets you play as Red, a singer in the city of Cloudbank; she uses the Transistor(a mysterious, intelligent sword) to fight the Process, a legion of robots that are attacking the city.

I, unfortunately, havent play it myself; it has been in my library for far too many years, yes I should be ashamed, please don’t torment me. Transistor is available in enough platforms (PS4, Steam, Nintendo Switch), so people like me don’t have excuses for not playing it.
