Q-Games has announced the next title in the PixelJunk series: PixelJunk Shooter. In PixelJunk Shooter, players pilot a subterranean vehicle to explore vast underground environments. With the goal of rescuing stranded spelunkers, PixelJunk Shooter will challenge players to master the dynamic environments of each stage.
Each stage acts as a flow simulation in which players will attempt to control various types of liquid and solid matter. Is there a waterfall of molten lava blocking access to the next survivor? Reroute the lava flow to another area by destroying the earth beneath it. But be careful, that lava may travel to another area and make spelunker soup out of some other unsuspecting survivors.
Due in Fall of 2009 for the PlayStation Network, PixelJunk Shooter is the fourth game in Q-Games’ successful PixelJunk series. Combining simple and addictive gameplay with equally simple and addictive graphics, PixelJunk Shooter looks to live up to the standard set by its predecessors.
