Update News
Website for Transcripted online
Karlsruhe, Germany, August 22nd, in the year of our Lord
2012 - TopWare Interactive is proud to announce the new
virtual headquarters of its upcoming puzzle-shooter,
“Transcripted”. From now on, all information, screenshots and
trailers can be found here, at the official website.
"Transcripted" is set to release for PC, Mac, Xbox 360 and
PlayStation 3 very soon as a downloadable title, thanks to the
hard work by developer Alkemi Games.
Though humanity has always believed itself to be at the top of
the food chain, the more microscopic hierarchies of life are
what truly hold the powers of life and death. Disease is the
greatest threat to the future of our species, even more so than
famine, and as rapid population growth continues hand-in-hand
with ever-increasing comforts and quality of life, it is only a
matter of time before some unstoppable disease evolves with the
potential to annihilate us.
That day has come. A new disease has been discovered in your
laboratory, spreading faster than modern methods of quarantine
and treatment can hope to contain. As traditional medicine has
almost no effect on this terrifying, unidentified xeno-virus,
you’ve been tasked with driving what may well be humanity’s
last, single hope in defeating the outbreak of the disease
before it reaches epidemic proportions: the Nano Probe. Armed
with cutting-edge weapons from laser canons to homing missiles,
the Nano Probe is a microscopic, experimental precision surgical
instrument that enters infected cells to hunt down and destroy
pathogens, all while being remotely controlled from outside the
body. You, and the Nano Probe, are all that stands between us
and total extinction.
A retro arcade shooter at its core, the gameplay also features
classic match three puzzle elements, rejuvenating both of these
well-explored genres with ingenuity and addictive simplicity.
Transcripted transports players into the tiniest battlefield of
all, the perpetual war zone of the human body, to fight off a
deadly virus that if allowed to propagate and spread could
destroy our entire species. But all hope is not lost, as new
tech research is constantly being implemented, allowing players
to upgrade the Nano Probe’s weapons, chassis, shields, and
energy systems, ensuring that any escalation done by the virus
does not remain one-sided. Players must guide the Nano-Probe and
its weapons with the objective of disrupting the virus’s
slow-coiling pseudo-DNA strand, a colorful chain that can only
be broken by matching three or more nucleotide cubes of
identical color. Stopping an infection is no easy task, and the
virus will create many brutal, monstrous mutations to stop the
Nano Probe dead in its tracks… cue the game’s unforgettable boss
battles, which will require both a sharp wit and razor-honed
reflexes to overcome.
Two separate difficulty settings, one for puzzle elements and
another for shooting, make Transcripted a game of literally
endless possibility and replay value.
