Hello Transposers!
We are pleased to announce that Wantless 1.0 will be officially releasing on May 16th!
This major milestone marks the end of the early access phase. Prepare for new synapses, new boss encounters, new patients and most importantly: the completion of the main storyline!

Why change the timeline?
We’ve decided to change our Early Access roadmap, shifting the 1.0 launch date to earlier this year. For one, and mainly thanks to your feedback, the game is looking better by the day. Second, it felt more reasonable to focus on missing core content, important build customization systems and your top quality of life requests before release, while leaving extra optional content for the post-release timeline.
While some of the originally envisioned content won't be available at launch, this revised approach allows us to focus on delivering a stronger foundation for the game and its future!
We’ve discussed this a bit more extensively on Discord, and will be there if there’s anything you’d like to ask about it.
What's new in 1.0?
The finished story line
With 3 new unique patients across 2 new areas, each with their own boss and gear.
New synapses
Including the Impulse form, which lets you summon an Impulse that casts your skill when it's detonated. Who needs the environment when you can create your own?
Equipment alteration
Similar to Synapse fusion, customize and upgrade your equipment to optimize synergies and perfect your build. This includes changing modifiers, increasing enhance level, and even Subliming unique equipment with custom modifiers.
Many new synapse modifiers
A Gust that grants Awareness when clearing tiles, a Stun that deals damage when resisted... Every single synapse can now be pushed all the way to Legendary.
Plus new achievements, new equipment, new quality of life features and some more balancing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the game going to be at launch?
Though this is highly dependent on how you choose to pace your own progression and how you fare against tough bosses, it should take around 35h to beat the main story line on average, with extensive post game content after that.
Will there be a price increase?
No, the game will stay at 17,99€/$ as we feel like it's a good price for what we have to offer.
Will my Early Access saves be compatible with the 1.0 version?
We did our best to make the saves compatible, however, we recommend that you start a new game with the 1.0 launch. A lot has changed during early access and we cannot guarantee there won't be edge cases and unexpected behaviors with early access saves. If you were already in the endgame, you'll be teleported back to a previous area to finish the main storyline, though you'll obviously be overprepared for it!
Will you support the game after the 1.0?
We will initially focus on fixing any outstanding bugs you report. As for additional content updates, we still have a ton of ideas we'd like to add to the game, but that'll depend on how the game does at launch.
