About the game

Transcend is an abstract 2D shooter game created by Jason Rohrer. The game's source is licensed mostly under the GPL, but with some public domain code as well. The latest version is 0.3 released on August 30, 2005. Rohrer was motivated to create the game out of frustration with the game industry's lack of creativity.

Its dynamic graphical engine can smoothly morph from one complex shape to another.

The player controls the player’s glyph, which is connected to the center of a grid, which marks the plane. The glyph can travel anywhere on the grid, taking Elements from the border of the grid, and bringing them into a collage in the center of it.
