PixelJunk Shooter out in Japan this year News

PlayStation 3 News by Tom Bramwell

22 September, 2009

Q-Games' upcoming PlayStation Network release PixelJunk Shooter will go on sale in Japan this December, according to founder Dylan Cuthbert.

That's according to one of his many Tweets in the run-up to this week's Tokyo Game Show (thanks Joystiq).

PixelJunk Shooter - known by the codename PixelJunk 1-4 when we got our first hands-on this April - sees you piloting a yellow capsule through 2D caverns and doing a bit of grappling to rescue little waving men.

You'll have to watch out for enemies, rock-falls and lava, with a big emphasis on using water to cool your craft and lava to solve problems, and frequently the two in combination.

I agree menage. It looks quality, Monsters and Eden are great games when you fancy a change from normal games.

Been following this for a while.
Looks like a modern day Galaxy Force 2 with some fluid dynamics thrown in.

That was one of the best games of all time IMO, and sure other Amiga Power readers will remember it fondly too :D

So, Japan December... when it gonna come here?

Wasn't Galaxy Force 2 the mega 3D swirl around arcade cabinet? I see no resemblance
