So, has anyone seen this? (Sorry if it has been posted, a quick search turned up nothing.) New PixelJunk game: the idea seems to be to take one of those falling sand toys and turn it into an actual game. Looks quite nice, I think.





Seems they are having a naming contest to come up with an actual name right now.

(I'm not sure if I'm allowed by law to post Pixeljunk games under Indie games anymore, but eh.)

Wow :D That game looks amazing :D As for the naming contest, i'm almost sure it will become PixelJunk: Elements. I've scrolled trough the Sony forums, and this one has been submitted alot :D But the gameplay looks awesome

Well up for this, it looks amazing.

One problem I've had with Pixeljunk games is that they're made with NOTHING but large, high definition screens in mind. A friend of mine has a fairly good, but normal TV, and he can't enjoy Pixeljunk games for shit.

This looks very, very cool already.

And I think "Elements" is a cool name.

I just saw the video, what platform is it being developed for?

Looks very...strange? strange, but interesting.

PS3.

one of those falling sand toys

To nit pick: the falling sand stuff uses cellular automata, and looking at the video it would appear that they're using smoothed particle hydrodynamics, i.e a "proper" fluid sim. AWESOME!!
