Pixel Pusher is a funny little game. It’s really simple: use your finger to push a blue smiley-face “pixel” around and make him touch the other pixels flying all over the place. Touching a red one ends the game, but the black ones get you points and the yellow question marks are surprises that either make the game easier or harder.

My first impression of Pixel Pusher was omg this is stupid but after seeing the Top 100 global scoreboard I just had to get on it! This game has a way of growing on you and if you can get hooked on a game like PapiJump you can definitely get hooked on this one.

What makes Pixel Pusher fun is the yellow surprise pixels… they can do a variety of things like speed things up (bad), slow things down (good), make your blue pixel guy bigger (bad), make blue guy smaller (good), make your blue pixel invincible (very good), etc.

Another catch in the game is that your blue smiley pixel gets progressively bigger as you score more points, and the bigger you get the harder it is to avoid the bad red pixels.

There’s no sound in Pixel Pusher which is a little disappointing, but the more troubling issue is that the game seems to get kind of buggy at certain times. After submitting my high score on a couple of occasions the blue pixel’s movement became way too choppy to play the game and I had to restart it. I’m not 100% certain that it’s related to high-score submission, but it sure seemed that way.

My only other complaint is that the high-score submitter doesn’t remember my name so I have to keep on typing it in. If reduxsoft could fix this along with the choppy-movement bug, the game would be a lot easier to enjoy.

Overall I like Pixel Pusher and $.99 isn’t much to pay if you’re looking for a simple, mindless game to keep you amused.
