Hi, I'm John Davis, Q-Games Community Manager and Assistant Producer on the latest PixelJunk title, Nom Nom Galaxy! We're honored to be part of the N4G Indie Month and to be in the company of such great developers. I'm also excited to talk about contest we're running now for a chance to win one of the exclusive Nom Nom Galaxy t-shirts we'll be giving away at PAX Prime!
If you're unfamiliar with Q-Games or the PixelJunk series, here's a brief primer. Our company president, Dylan Cuthbert, got his game dev chops on projects like the original Star Fox and development of the PlayStation 2. In 2001, he founded Q-Games in Kyoto, Japan. We've had our hands in small bits of the PlayStation 3 development, including my favorite PS3 visualizers, Earth. We've also done some great DSiWare games, like Reflect Missile/Trajectile and X-Scape. And we were lucky enough to return to the Star Fox universe on the Nintendo DS (Star Fox Command) and 3DS (Star Fox 3D). But gamers are probably most familiar with our PixelJunk series! Since 2007 we've developed and published seven PixelJunk games and various expansions on PSN.
Nom Nom Galaxy is the latest in the series and our first game to debut on Steam. It's unlike anything we've done in the past; a 2D genre mash-up of base building, tower defense, and galactic economic domination through soup that we like to call SoupCraft! This is also our first Early Access title, which has been both amazing and incredibly stressful.

Day 31 | Q-Games
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
"a 2D genre mash-up of base building, tower defense, and galactic economic domination through soup"
I mean there's literally nothing else you can possibly ask for!!! BRING IT!!
@ 4:40 in the video, I didn't think he was gonna do it, I was wrong
