The trials and tribulations of building a canned soup empire in space are revealed in the first gameplay trailer for PixelJunk Inc from Q-Games, the mysterious game formerly known only by its codename PixelJunk 1-6. Unusually for Q, PixelJunk Inc will debut on PC, hitting Mac and Linux too.
Q-Games' delightful PixelJunk series began life on PlayStation 3 and has only recently tentatively dipped its toe in the PC pool, but the next game is unexpectedly debuting on PC and may not see release elsewhere at all. PixelJunk 1-6, as it's codenmed, is largely under wraps for now, but will feature co-op and "probably like a gajillion" robots.
To celebrate its five year anniversary, developer Q-Games is having a sale. For a limited time, many PixelJunk games will be available for only $1.
PixelJunk 4am finally has a release date: May 15th. The app will be available in two flavors: a full release, and a free viewer that allows you to watch--but not create--live performances.
The bizarre music creation app "PixelJunk 4am"--and free viewer app--will be available on PS3 some time in "Spring."
Q-Games is bringing PixelJunk Eden to Steam next week, complete with the Encore add-on and some PC-exclusive features.
After months of closed beta testing, PixelJunk Monsters Online is officially open to all on Facebook. After a number of successful games on PlayStation Network, this is developer Q-Games' first foray into social games with the PixelJunk brand.
Q-Games' odd PlayStation Move-enabled music creation app, PixelJunk lifelike, is changing its name to the much more mysterious (and oddly alluring) PixelJunk 4am.
