Pixel Junk Shooter 2 In the Works

Q Game's Pixel Junk Shooter was released last year on the PlayStation Network, and by most accounts, it was pretty damn good.  We would have liked to see some more co-op specific puzzles, but overall it was a beautiful and addicting game.  G4TV talked with Q Games Founder Dylan Cuthbert about the sequel.

"Normally sequels are just a re-hashing of the ideas in the original," said Cuthbert, "but for PixelJunk Shooter we still have a ton of ideas on the drawing board and the engine has lots of potential we want to use before moving onto our next idea. It would be a waste not to use it to try out more stuff."

Like we said above, one thing we'd like to see is specific co-op puzzles where players must work together to solve the environments.  Since the game is all about combining elements to create something different, it almost seems like a no brainer feature.  No release date was given but you can be sure we'll keep you in the loop on any Pixel Junk Shooter 2 developments.

My friend and I didn't like this game at all. We didn't have to put any thought into it, and each stage was over in five seconds. On the other hand, we're still playing Pixel Junk Monsters.

I was kind've the same way lun4tic. The girlfriend and I just couldn't get into it, and the lack of online coop was a bummer (for all their games no less).

I still need to pick this up, but I've got such a backlog going on that I haven't needed to buy any PSN/XBLA games for awhile (minus that Critter Crunch sale).

My wife and I are currently going through PixelJunk Shooter and having a good time. She's not a hardcore gamer so the difficulty is just about right. Looking forward to see what they do with the sequel.

My wife and I are enjoying this one as well. We are taking it at a slow pace and trying to get all the treasure and pass the levels without any of the people you rescue dieing.

Have to admit... I would love some more pixel junk monsters though.. My wife and I had a lot of fun playing that.
