The year is 1983. After a skydiving accident, you awaken with your cheek pressed against a damp beige carpet. The tacky, off-white wallpaper looks yellow on your video camera’s view screen. As the old lights, randomly placed in the drop ceiling above, bathe the place in their sickly glow. The buzzing from the fluorescent lights above seems louder than it should be. And what is that smell? Sounds echo through the endless halls from no clear direction. And it feels as if someone, or something, is watching you. You aren’t sure where you ended up. But what’s clear is that you will not be safe until you find a way out of this place. Transliminal;s visual language isn’t just a retro VHS recording skin. Players will quickly notice that these visual flourishes are indicators of the game character’s physical and mental condition. The low resolution grain and bad video tracking effects increase immersion and provide a thematic experience. However, they may not be to every player’s liking. Which is why all effects can be disabled in the Settings menu. From the opening scene it’s clear that the main player character has his own issues to work out. But as you explore the various levels, you may find the threads that weave together several tales that came before you. The concept of procedural liminal spaces that go on forever is a rich subject matter. And gives the opportunity to explore wildly different environments that don’t always follow the rules of physics. Players of Transliminal will traverse many strange structures and vistas over the course of their adventure. What’s not immediately apparent is that the levels are also watching you. Reacting and changing depending on your character’s condition. While exploring, players will soon find that the environment around them is non-linear and seems to form around them. When tracing back to where they came from, players will find that paths they have traveled are no longer as they were. If you are a fan of cerebral horror, and an explorer at heart, then this game is for you.
