Transcendence had it's 0.7 release back in 2003 where the author was confident that a 1.0 would hit in a year or two, max. Guess that didn't pan out so well but 1.0 has finally arrived. The game is randomized every time a new game is initiated, there are over a hundred enemy types and plenty of booty to be looted or purchased. A players guide is available for newbies as well as a whole site dedicated to mods.
I couldn't find a single gameplay video that didn't consist of some weeny nerd-voice explaining the blatantly obvious over a $5 Walmart mic so instead I will provide you with a nice screenie and a few reviews from rgcd and bigdownload.
