Welcome to Transland

Untried, untested, and never finished, Transland was never intended for public consumption. In fact, Transland is the result of an exercise by some creative folks here at ORIGIN who were learning about the ins and outs of 3-D games. 

Sure, we thought about completing the project, packaging it up nicely, and launching it with a bang, but it never happened. 

Despite its relative simplicity, we think  you'll have fun with it. Transland has four little worlds to explore with puzzles, some character interaction, a little combat, and an emphasis on fun--overall a light-hearted tone.

Transland was produced by:

Programmers: Art DiBianca, Gary Scott Smith
Artists: Whitney Ayres, Darrin LeBlanc
Design Assistant: Scott Hazle
Designers: Everyone above (and Warren Spector)
