Antariksha Sanchar (also known as Transmissions in Space) is an episodic point-and-click adventure deeply rooted in Indian culture. The Quicksand GamesLab studio is responsible for the creation of the title, and the creators were inspired by the famous Indian mathematician self-taught Srinivas Ramanujan and the equally popular dancer Jayalakshmi Eshwar, who also took part in the work on the game.
### Story
The action of the game was set in the early twenties of the twentieth century, in the region of southern India, filled with small towns and ancient temples. While playing, we play the role of a brilliant mathematician whose aim is to explore the secrets of the cosmos and the possibility of its exploration by man.
### Mechanics
This production is a classic point-and-click adventure, in which the essence of the game is exploration and solving various logical puzzles. The action of the game is observed from the third-person perspective, and the camera – depending on the situation – is placed behind the hero’s back, from the side or in isometric perspective. During the fun we travel through picturesque towns and ancient temples, filled with relics of ancient Indian civilization and riddles related to the scientific achievements of ancient Hindus. Thanks to numerous references to the old and contemporary culture of the country, Antarisha Sanchar, in addition to its purely entertaining qualities, can also successfully serve as an encyclopaedia of Indian culture.
### Technical issues
Antariksha Sanchar is characterized by a colorful, fully three-dimensional graphic design, in which deep inspirations of Indian culture, art and architecture are quite clearly visible. The whole is complemented by a soundtrack in a similar climate, consisting of classical works of Carnatian music and achievements of contemporary Indian electronic music creators.
