Transmissions is based in an atmospheric world which is familiar yet mysterious. If this is Earth, where are the humans? The player takes control of a little robot, lost in a beautiful, atmospheric world. Core game-play sees the player solving puzzles to progress through the world, but the rich environments also provide opportunities for moments of discovery and wonder for players who take the time to explore. Play single player or get help from up to three local or online friends. Navigate your character around the level anyway you can; grab onto balloons to reach the highest peaks, manipulate the environment to control switches, locate all the collectibles or just whiz around in a shopping cart! You also have the ability to build and customize your avatar in game. Wearable items and special custom options might be found in-game as the player explores the world or purchased as part of future DLC.
