PixelJunk™ Shooter Reviews

A short and sweet game that is hard to get tired of!!! Game play is simple point and shoot action! The story has an interesting undertone! Plus the game is a collect-athon! On a side note I played this game originally years ago on the Playstation 3 when it first launched and I can happily say it holds up perfectly! It is also fun to 100% for the completionist out there! For a normal player the game may last about 3-5 hours while 100% may take from 8-10 hours!

A fun little puzzle game, You rescue researchers from danger on caverns or mines. You shoot little machines that are trying to kill you. Each round is different so far, and a lot of fun. it's part shooter, part puzzle, and part strategy! ♥ I think most people will like this game, but every gamer is different.

Want a twin stick shooter about a space ship rescuing scientists beneath the surface of a weird planet? Excellent fluid dynamics! Has objectively weird music for the setting... sometimes even in general!

A cool twin-stick shooter involving liquid physics. Not so difficult, but every threat in the game is an instakill or put you in a near-death state. Each stages are made of several scenes -- a single area, bigger than the game window, and dying resets everything in the scene and respawn you back to the start.

Great controls/feel. Great couch-coop. Fantastic soundtrack. Nice polished look. Great use and mixtures of elements. Love the scientist-rescues. Highly recommended! One of my favorite games!

This game is a nice mix of shooter and puzzle game... Quick review: You go into caves and look for survivors (or gems) and grab them, then you try to shoot enemies and avoid lava so you can get to the exit. Sometimes you have to look for ways to cool the lava so you can get past it... It's fun.

Although the game was a bit on the easy side I found it really entertaining and cute. Really liked the fluid physics, animations for spaceship and the art. It was always satisfying to fire dozens of missles for no reason other than to watch the trails of smoke and the explosions.

I was pretty disappointed by this game. I really liked Eden so was excited to try out Shooter. At first I really enjoyed it. I liked the graphical style, the overall gameplay, and the fluid mechanics and interactions are super cool. But then tedium set in. None of the levels are difficult. I probably died like 20 times in the entire run through, and most of those were to bosses or me just being lazy. It's also pretty much the same thing over and over with slight variations, and I don't really like the necessary compulsion to collect jewels in order to progress through levels. That requirement seems like it's there solely to make a short game longer. It doesn't add anything to the experience. The combat is also pretty repetitive. It never presents a challenge and the enemies pretty much just exist to give you something to do other than collect jewels and scientists and avoid environmental hazards. Also, the music just doesn't make any sense. It feels like it was made for another game and accidentally inserted into Shooter. It's out of context. And then there's the fact that this game came out for PS3 in 2009 and is selling for $9 (the Steam release date is Nov 11, 2013). There's even a sequel that came out in 2011. I didn't realize that and I guess that's my fault, but come on. The game isn't terrible, but it's not particularly good either. You might enjoy it if you want a casual, easy, pick up and play type of game and like the graphical style. As I said, the fluid physics and interactions were really inventive and used well. I would have like PJ to have harnessed that a bit better to make this a deeper game. All in all I can't recommend it generally.

PixleJunk Shooter is a personally long awaited port of the PSN game and whilst it doesn’t add much else to the PC version of the game other than 1080p and 120Hz display ability and a well ported control scheme, the game is still as fun as the day I purchased it on the PSN. Shooter is a colourful and physics based Puzzle/Shooter, you are tasked with saving the people of a mining colony from a world that appears to be fighting back against the miners, along the way you fight various creatures and bosses and different methods to attack them with. The games difficulty is not very high but unless you know what you are doing enemies may surprise you. The game also comes with a Co-Op mode to allow you to play with your friends. Shooter is an addictive and charming little game well worth the small price tag. To 100% the game you may be looking at 4 to 8 hours. - 9/10 My #1 PSN game, now on PC? Fuck yeah. Pros: - Addictive and fun - Colourful with nice graphics and Physics - Good controls for mouse and keyboard (To say the game was built for consoles) - Plenty of levels Cons: - Once learned, an easy game - Very few Achievements

Rating 7.5/10 What is it? 2d sidescroller, controlling a ship to solve puzzles using water, lava and a magnetic liquid to save your crew members. The Good: + The game's main premise has you navigating the enviroment, destroying the environment so that water and lava can mix forming new terrain for you to destory and progress further along. Keep in mind this is a simplified version of the game, as you progress the game introduces some new mechanics and ships to keep things varied. + Combing the different liquids together is really cool and adds a fresh new gameplay idea, combining different liquids together provides different results. +Graphics fit the enviroment nicely + Some cool boss battles + Achievements are easy to get and shouldn't provide too much trouble. The Bad: - The game doesn't really take its ideas far enough leaving a very easy game. The game doesn't get that much harder as you progress either. I was a bit disappointed when I beat the game. -Roughly 3 hours long, 5-7 hours if you go for achievements. Conclusion Although I had fun, I felt the game was a bit basic for my taste. I would have liked the game to be a bit more challenging especially in regards to the puzzles as the game does introduce some cool elements later on in the game.
