The next PixelJunk game has players shooting clouds with a machine gun

Q-Games has announced its newest PixelJunk title for PS5 and PSVR2, the third-person exploration-action game Dreams of Another.

Directed by artist Tomohisa ‘Baiyon’ Kuramitsu (PixelJunk Eden 2), Q-Games says Dreams of Another is built around the philosophical theme of “no creation without destruction.”

“Rather than destroying objects by shooting—as in traditional shooting games—here, your shots materialize and create the world,” Kuramitsu told the

.

“This unconventional mechanic offers a gameplay experience that challenges the norms of the genre and invites players into a whole new dimension.

“As a developer, I’ve long been interested in finding a new perspective on third-person shooting games. Could we create a game that explores the beauty of life and creation in the context of destruction? This question inspired Dreams of Another.”

The world of Dreams of Another is crafted using point cloud technology, which Q says creates an “ethereal, impressionistic dreamscape”. Existing in an abstracted state, made up of clouds of particles, the environment reacts to players’ gunfire, transforming into objects they can interact with.

“The story revolves around two emotionally scarred characters: The Man in Pajamas and The Wandering Soldier,” the game’s director explains. “While the focus is on these two characters, players will also interact with sentient objects like talking trees and doors, uncovering their thoughts, emotions, and secrets.

“As you journey through the dream world, you will witness the unfolding story of the characters and their experiences, discovering what they have encountered and how they feel along the way; all the while piecing together the mysteries of the world and navigating the liminal space between dreams and reality.”
