PJM Trophy Help

PJM 2.0 Patch has been Released

Hey Everyone

One of yesterdays notable releases for the PSN was the patch for Pixeljunk Monsters. People have been wanting this patch for a while it gives some nice features and small fixes and most importantly is trophy support.

I personally like the fact we can lock the preference of the upgrade or sell feature. I don't know how many times in a tense moment I have sold a tower instead of upgrading one.

So download and enjoy. I'm sure PJM just breathed new life into itself and got some new customers with this patch. Thing to learn from all the developers out there.... support your products and customers and we will support you!

New PJ Monsters Update Patch Comming

Hey Everyone

There is a new patch that will be coming out for Pixeljunk Monsters that might bring you back to playing the game or buying it for the first time. Here is some of the new things being added:

Difficulty Levels:
There is now a Casual mode, the Regular/Ranked mode, and Hard-core mode.

Tower Menu selection:
You can now set the default menu to appear when selecting a tower! Now you can choose which option appears as the default, instead of the last action you selected. So no more accidently selling your towers :)

Tower Balancing:
Those of you who have purchased Encore know about the reduced cost on the Ice Tower, and balanced functionality of the Tesla tower. This patch applies those changes to BOTH islands, not just the Encore island.

Video Recording / YouTube Support:
Ever since Q-Games included this feature into PixelJunk Eden, we knew it needed to be in Monsters as well. You will be able to record up to 10 minutes of gameplay and upload it directly to your YouTube account, or send it to your video folder on your PS3’s XMB.

XMB Custom Soundtrack Support:
You can now make your own custom soundtrack to listen to as you play PixelJunk Monsters and Encore! I’ve personally been enjoying listening to the PixelJunk Eden soundtrack while I play Monsters, as well as listening to the PixelJunk Monsters soundtrack within Eden! It’s great how well those fantastic soundtracks work in other games.


Oh and did I mention that there will be TROPHIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Brief Description:
Inspired by the popular and addictive "tower defense" genre, PixelJunk™ Monsters takes the simple real-time strategy concept of building, researching and base defending and presents it in a uniquely attractive style. With meticulously hand-drawn 2D art, PixelJunk™ Monsters recreates the look of a classic with crisp graphics designed for optimal viewing in Full 1080p HD.

In PixelJunk™ Monsters, the player controls a defender-of-the-forest character in a lush 2D environment. The player's goal is to strategically defend the pathway to his homebase from an onslaught of various threatening monsters. In between waves of monster attacks, the player scrambles to reinforce his defenses by collecting gold coins and jewels from fallen enemies to finance new towers and research deadlier weapons. Eventually, the player can harness the elements throughout the 20 different stages to cast lightning storms across the forest. Gamers can enjoy PixelJunk™ Monsters with a friend in offline co-op mode, which requires careful strategy and communication. Additionally, PixelJunk™ Monsters will support online leaderboards for both 1p and 2p co-op.


Key Features:
- Simple But Deep – Simple controls make PixelJunk™ Monsters easy to learn. But mastering the challenges of tower upgrade and placement requires deep strategic thinking, leading to hours of addictive gameplay.
- Visually Charming – PixelJunk™ Monsters features a unique hand-drawn art style with over 20 stages and weather effects.
- Distinctive Music – Features original music and sound by Japanese ambient techno group Otograph.
- Online Leaderboards – For tracking both single player and co-op high scores.
