Dylan Cuthbert, the lovely man at the head of Q-Games and its associated PixelJunk subbrand, has let us know what the 4th title in the PixelJunk canon will be: Shooter.

You’ll remember that there was a competition for fans of Dylan’s games to come up with names for the project and then he’d select a winner for his underground water based platform puzzler. The winning name sounds just fine to us, although I personally, naturally, preferred my own choice of Pixeljunk Geo.

  1. Pixeljunk Bacon would have been better.


    • Yeah sounds much better to me!


    • Much more memorable – would have got my vote. Though I honestly thought PIXEL JUNK: ELEMENTS would win since so many people were suggesting it.


  2. So they sorted through the thousands of applicants and decided “shooter” was the best? My suggestion was PixelJunk: Crust, which I prefer to shooter. Why didn’t they call eden “swinger”? >.<


  3. Shooter???? Yeah, THAT matches the videos and screenshots…


    • O, they have made such a huge mistake with this name – everyone hates it!


  4. i thought it was called Pixeljunk Dylan Cuthbert since it said “Pixeljunk 1-4 is called…” and then continued with Dylan Cuthbert…:P

    Shooter however… is a horrible name for that game….


  5. I think my effort was the best Pixeljunk: Evolution


  6. Eeesh. Might as well have just stuck with Pixeljunk 1-4. At least that was original…


  7. well it kind of fits in with the rest of the names. But I do think Geo sounds a lot better


  8. Jeeez… for a moment I read Pixeljunk 1-4 Is Canceled…


  9. How does that even match the video…?


  10. Really? I was thinking of Shooter, but found it way to unoriginal O_o

    Well at least the game looks like fun :)


  11. I came up with ‘Blaze’. ‘Shooter’ is a horrible, boring name. From that choice, almost any other name would have been better!


  12. I suggested “Elements” since it has to do with elements… sounds logical, right?


    • Yeah, me too, as did a couple of pals on another forum I frequent. Not overly keen on PixelJunk Shooter, as it doesn’t sound very original/interesting, does it?! I suppose for those uninformed persons looking to buy the game on PSN though, it leaves no doubt as to what the game is about…?!


  13. I sent in PixelJunk: Rape.

    Still no word on that…


    • Neither on PixelJunk: Swine Flu


  14. Overwhelming majority of the PS.Blog commets hate it. Don’t blame them/ Not exactly creative is it? Sounds very generic too


  15. PixelJunk: spunk. You can’t beat a rapey rhyme
