i keep shooting the people grrr.

Try using the spin attack (rotate right stick) to get to the little people, it doesn't kill them.
The game supports custom music from the XMB. (the original music is great)
 
Still on Episode 1 in the game, but having immense fun with Shooter. The way the graphics are, the way the water and lava reacts. I just love it. :)
 
Just played with my roommate, tons of fun. I don't know where the Home reward I got is. I checked inventory, wardrobe, and furniture, I don't see anything.

There seems to be a bug with it atm. No one has gotten the rewards.
 
It's a really fun inventive game so far, just started the second episode, but there's a couple of things that I'd like to have seen.

1). An aiming indicator like Eden.

2). An indicator in each particular room as to how many men/treasures there are and how many you've still to get, even if it's only on repeated playthroughs. It would make it considerably less tedious on replays to know which rooms you still hadn't 100%.

Any chance this will be on PSP?
No way. I don't think it could handle the liquid physics this game would throw at it.

Beautiful beautiful game, and the music is absolutely fantastic. Really makes you feel bad when you kill a guy by accident though.

"Pow pow pow, take that rocks!"
*hits little man*
"AUUUUUGHHHHH!"
"...oh...oh no..."
*falls into a lake*
"glubglubglub"
"noooo!"
*lava pours into lake, setting man ablaze*
"ahahAHHHH!"
"oh gawd...no...;_;"


Hah, this game is awesome.
 
about 6 hours of straight playing, and i'm done.

global rank: 41

regarding the ending...

to be continued? DLC? sequel? wtf

Was gonna watch Fringe, but I'm bee-lining for this now. Walter can wait.

I bought PJ Racers when it came out. Played it way more than Eden but Monsters has been the apex so far. Lookin' forward to this.
 
Just tested out remote play, works pretty good. Nub controls movement and direction, face buttons shoot, grab, and do spin.
 
Played the first couple of levels, so far I love it. Hard to compare to other PJ games because they are so different, but I like it better than Eden so far, but Monsters is still my favorite.

I am looking forward to playing it more this weekend. The puzzle aspect was surprising and an awesome addition for me. It is pretty exhilarating to save your people at the last second. I will continue to buy PJ games on Day 1, have not been disappointed yet.
Even with Racers
:lol
 
This game is fantastic. I went into it playing like Gravity Crash. :lol
Now that I "get it", it's awesome!

Youtube u/l's quickly got more intriguing once it clicked. I demand youtube GAF PJ Shooter speedruns!
Go Go Go!

Already, I wouldn't argue that it doesn't looks primed for DLC. But if the DLC is done right, i'll bite. Digging it so far.

edit: WHAAARRRGARRBLL!
 
Awesome game, only it seems like it may be a bit short. Spent a couple hours and beat Episode 1 already. Got all the treasure items too. I stopped playing so I don't get too far all in one night. :D

Love the liquid 'physics' or whatever you'd call it.
 
The game is amazing.

I can see myself killing every piece of whatever to find hidden gems, zooming around just never gets old. It has some similar feelings to Eden, but the gameplay is way more engaging and entertaining. So far the music is good too, but doesnt stand out so much up to episode 2.

Seems short but good quality. Im sure a DLC plan is in place already so hopefully its some good content, maybe new elements or ship types to mess with.
 
Yup, the game is frakkin' fantastic. I played for about an hour and 1/2, via Remote Play. I'm waiting for the my wife to go to bed to I can play it normal style.

As for DLC, you know there will be a "Pixel Junk Shooter: Encore" by next March! :D
 
Nice video...just wondering if you knew that if you hold the fire button you get missiles but they take away some of your ships energy!

If you don't know it, you'll know by the time you beat Episode 1 since one of the guys tells you about it

Yeah, I was just trying to blaze through the stage and found it easier to use the regular missile.
 
Yeah usually hate being at home sick, but at least I have this to make me feel better.

Just started episode 2 and holy shit this game is awesome. It's going to be hard not to beat it today :)

MAGMA SUIT FTMFW
 
This game is awesome, one of the best download games of the year...but guys, buy Revenge of the wounded Dragon too, no one is buying it :lol ...:(
 
Okay, Shooter just got put on the Asian PSN Store, and I'm very disappointed. The pricing is ridiculous, and the only way to buy the game is in a package with Pixeljunk Racers. This is not a pricing scheme I can support, so although I am very excited to play this game until I am able to purchase just Pixeljunk Shooter at a reasonable price, I will not be buying this. Q Games has totally dropped the ball here.

The store claims that Pixeljunk Racers is "free" with Shooter, but this is clearly a lie, because the package is priced at S$18.99. I bought Pixeljunk Eden at launch for S$11.99 or so iirc. Racers is on the store for about 7 bucks. So clearly this bundle is forcing me to buy Racers if I want to play Shooter. Sorry but this is bullshit.

......buy Revenge of the Wounded Dragon :D
 
I HAD NO IDEA THIS GAME WAS OUT

buybuybuy
 
Played this yesterday together with my son. Awesome controls, awesome gameplay. Realy nice one this, and I strongly advice everyone to buy it.
 
Shooter is fantastic. Played the first two stages then put it down to save it for co-op tomorrow. Just hope it takes a good chunk of time to work through.
 
I actually feel refreshed when I dip in a pool or water and my shields refresh. I love the rumble implementation in this game, as well.

I'm a fucking loser. I just whined about it, and now I bought it anyway. I hope I don't hate Racers. :(

:lol Racers isn't really all that great IMO, but Shooter will make up for the lack of greatness. It really is a super well-polished, smooth, awesome game. The music seems to fit so well, and the controls....the controls!!! :D
