Can’t wait!

TubaDude49  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:04 pm

So when’s the name get announced?

Anubis80  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:08 pm

Ok when are you announcing the name?
When are you releasing the game?

Jeff Rubenstein replied on May 8, 2009 at 3:08 pm

Both answers will be revealed on the blog… though when that is, is TBA.

Daimomaru  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:08 pm

Looking forward to it Jeff; you can call it Pixel junk magma, since a lot of lava is involved…^__^

Daimomaru  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:09 pm

Or Pixel junk Core…^__^

Scodo_Thope  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:14 pm

CheesePie13  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:15 pm

Thrasher20  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:16 pm

I play them with a DS3 controller…

SilverFox840  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:17 pm

That’s sweet — Can’t wait to get my hands on it

Do we know a date or ballpark for one?

ShredinSlash  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:17 pm

Thank you.

smokey_vols  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:35 pm

I really enjoy the work Dylan and his team does, I can’t wait for this.

EXLONOX  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:37 pm

Looks fantastic!

Maguss  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:37 pm

I know we are just learning about the game and such, but what about any mulitiplayer!? or level editor? Regardless this is a day one purchase for me!!

SPOPS  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:38 pm

Looks interesting. Q-Games rocks :)

stlthriot  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:38 pm

I love a challenging game and all but sometimes I still feel Monsters is too difficult on Casual mode.
I hope this one doesn’t get too crazy because I really want to enjoy it. :)

isaacmac77  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:40 pm

hey jeff or dylan if i win please give the prizes to someone else because i wouldnt use them and i know atleast afew people picked the same name as me (PJ:element) so yeah i just kind of suggested it and i do not want my name to be announced someone else can have it ( if the one i suggested is picked that is)… btw game looks awesome

Ftwrthtx  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:40 pm

Great interview.

The game looks like a lot of fun.

Stinkinmushroom  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:41 pm

this = awesome!

jipmg  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:41 pm

im buying it because its a pixel junk game

Letters2Kay  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:42 pm

When is the naming contest over and when will the winner be announced?

jimmy903  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:46 pm

Looks like another great PSN title. Loved Monsters and Eden.

jbullfrog23  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:48 pm

Awesome! Can’t wait. Love supporting you guys. Keep up the great work!

iExile  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:50 pm

Insanely beautiful, and another masterpiece from Q-Games.

Sarges24  |  May 8th, 2009 at 1:50 pm

In regards to PixelJunk Eden. I have to disagree that taking away the timer doesn’t drive the player. The game itself drives the player. That’s still one of my biggest gripes w/ Eden and a reason I rarely, if ever sit down and play it. I’d like to take my jolly ole time strolling through the garden getting the Spectra w/o having to worry about my time constraints…;)

PixelJunk 1-4. Amazing. I definitely can’t wait to pick this one up.

KSPRAYDAD  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:03 pm

PixelJunk Grotto is my new fav PSN game.

Luillin  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:04 pm

Thanks for the Interview =D

keithmoon316  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:05 pm

My wife and I love the Pixeljunk games for their co-op. Is there any 2p co-op planned for 1-4?

XScimmia  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:07 pm

I am so exciticated! must.have.now!

Luillin  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:15 pm

@Keithmoon316 The PixelJunk Series will always have Co-Op mode =) 100% confirmed.

KwietStorm  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:21 pm

Just another great production from Q, and another unique title for PSN. I hope the relationship between you guys and Sony is a lasting one.

evildude683  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:24 pm

I just wanna know when are they gonna announce the name and the winner!!!!

BTW: It looks really good, I just hope this game lives up to the hype ;)

Korbei83  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:29 pm

Day one purchase, but I’ll double if I can have it now!

Can I have it now?

TUSTIN1  |  May 8th, 2009 at 2:53 pm

Loves me some PixelJunk – how about adding trophies to PixelJunk Racers…

Has a price point been announced for 1-4? I’m in regardless…

BigBoss712  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:01 pm

Really like what i see.

Vengeful-Chaos  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:03 pm

In relation to the naming of the game wouldn’t it be nice if we had an option after we purchased it to name it our selves. We buy it in the store titled pixel junk 1-4 and when we run the game for the first time we get a little menu option asking us to name it and from then on it’s named what ever we like.

It would be the first nameless game, but not really. It would be the game with a million names, the myth the legend pixel junk ______

Jeff Rubenstein replied on May 8, 2009 at 3:09 pm

Ha, that’s actually a cool idea. I don’t know that it’d happen for this, but I’ll let the team know anyway.

skynidas  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:15 pm

Its looking good, the lava looks great.

Jeff, do you have any info about The Punisher game?

cell989  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:20 pm

@Vengeful-Chaos

I LIKE IT!!!!! *Barney Gumble*

ExtensaQ  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:21 pm

I don’t like PixelJunk Eden Encore, but i just love PixelKunk Eden. I think that this is a good one, what do you think of a PSP release of the game?

Zookey  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:21 pm

Sweet looks fun!

commedieu  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:22 pm

would be epic to get custom soundtracks.. i remember eden didn’t have em till u beat it.

Dehshizknight  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:38 pm

Looks pretty sweet. Gonna have to get this one. Will be my second Pixel Junk game since I only bought Eden. I know, I know, I need to get Monsters but I might just pick up the PSP version, even thought the PS3 version has Remote Play support, since I’d appreciate a portable tower defense game more.

Vengeful-Chaos  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:44 pm

@ Jeff, Thanks I know there’s about 0.00001% chance of it happening but at least you’ll pass on the idea, which is why I love this blog.

Us simpletons get heard!

tobz1000  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:48 pm

PSN looks to have a better lineup than any other platform in the near future (if you can call it a platform).

digplans  |  May 8th, 2009 at 3:58 pm

Haha. Jeff I dig the reference to team Zissou. Now that you mention it, if PJ 1-4 can approximate the creative scope of that movie, it could be very neat! Looks like it has potential to become that creative and funnyfunky experience i’m looking for.

I’m not yet sold on the concept, but the dynamic fluid system seems interesting. I believe I can count on Q-games to deliver a unique experience so i’ll be following this closely, trying to grasp exactly what they’re aiming for.

Oh, and that above suggestion (#38) to have us all name our own game is great. Doubt it’ll happen, but if Jeff mentions it to Q, i’m sure they’ll share a chuckle over it – followed by a serious mull.

WFMMK  |  May 8th, 2009 at 4:03 pm

Matt is really cool and funny. Jeff you looked pretty interested in the game, I know I am too.

Torgo  |  May 8th, 2009 at 4:30 pm

It’s becoming quickly obvious that this is going to be my favorite of the Pixeljunk series. I can’t wait to play it!

mafecto  |  May 8th, 2009 at 4:45 pm

Dig Dug, Blaster Master, and Choplifter…
Awesome! I remember when those games came out…

Dylan and Q games are amazing. Can’t wait for this title.
