Take A Look At PixelJunk Shooter's Ice Level

A mess of developer-driven action in Q-Games' next PSN release.

From the little I played of PixelJunk Shooter back at E3, I think this fourth release in Q-Games' PSN series stands a good chance of being the best. Wondering why? Comin' outta Comic-Con last week, Sony producer Matt Morton offers a lengthy walkthrough of some new action in one of the game's ice stages that pretty thoroughly runs down the mechanics and how the game plays. Watch it! 


   

How does this one strike you, as PixelJunk games go?

'You can have two players on the same screen at the same time' but probably not online, same with Pixeljunk Eden :( I hope it's not as relentlessly frustrating and mean spirited as Eden.

Aside from it's godawful art style, looks pretty fun.

This will be the first PixelJunk game I buy, played the PJ Monsters and PJ Eden demos, and didn't like either of them. This, however, looks incredible.

If I had a PS3 I would get this. First I wanted to get the physicsy PSP game where you're a ball and roll around and now this. Sony sure has figured out that people wan't physics in their arcade now a days.

That game looks pretty cool. It seems the PS3 tends to get better arcade games than the 360 :(

That dude has the same glasses as me.

I get what you mean, but smaller games like this don't have platinum trophies.

@Lassegp: It's already got a mean timer counting down in each stage, but by Garden 5 it's also got lots of difficult flying about and enemies constantly trying to knock you down. Luckily Shooter doesn't seem to have a timer, so that's one thing down :)
