Sorry for the spam. This is the game I am working on now: PixelJunk 1-4. It has no name, you can name it for us. :)

Hi Bock, long time, no see! =)

This footage reminds me a lot of Subterrania for the Megadrive (which itself was probably based on something else).

Is there any chance of it coming out for XBL Arcade? It looks hot!

Final trailer for our game (japanese version) is out:

Game release on December 10 on PSN.
It was hell of a year :)

Seriously looking forward to that game! (tried it at Gamescom in Cologne this year). =)

Wow, I haven't been on here for a long time and I just saw Bock made Soul Bubbles, I have to find this game now! Congrats! Unfortunately I don't have a PS3, so I can't try the PixelJunk game.

Well, it might still be in the bargain bins...

Pixeljunk Shooter is a pretty awesome game.

The concept is great, and it is very addicting.

I hope your company makes more games like this.

Long time, no post. :)

My wife and I finally bought a PS3 a couple of months back, and there was an awesome deal on the PixelJunk library of games (100 yen each) a few weeks ago, so I bought all of them.

PixelJunk Shooter has quickly become one of my favorite games ever. It's simple, addicting, and beautiful. It's everything I got into games for in the first place.

It was nice to see the name of someone I know on the credits screen. Thanks, Bock, for working on such an incredible game. It was nice to finally meet you in person (two years ago already!) here in Japan.

(I merged your post in existing topic hope thats ok)
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the compliment on the game :) I'm quite happy with how Shooter turned out and it fits nicely with my fetish for old-school games made in a pleasing modern way. I heard about the 100 yens deal that is really a steal.
Hoping to see you again in Japan.

The new game I've been working on has been announced yesterday:

What was your responsability on in ? Can you disclose it generally ?

(Edit: "programming it" is not an answer :) )

Banana holder?

At least we have footage on that!

Media Molecule? Wow!

Tearaway looks like a great game. I might have to buy a Vita.

Niloct, I am working mostly on gameplay programming, minute to minute game design and tools/workflow improvement. We're still a relatively small team so the truth is that many people are doing a bit of everything.
