Title: Feeling tired and uninspired.
Post by: Echoic on July 21, 2008, 07:11:20 am
Bah.


I've not been here forever and 9 days it feels like. Kind of been feeling guilty about not playing the game too.  :'(

What spurred me to stop playing for a while is that freaking simon says boss. GAH.  >:D

What a frustrating thing that is.

So me being me, gets frustrated, finds another game to play, never to finish the one I gave up on. I can't count how many games I've never finished due to that.


But Aquaria is just so.....amazing(cliche, I know, but I couldn't think of another word) that just can't find in my beating chest to give up.

So I guess I'll give it one more try(or nine).


Long story short, someone made me a userbar over at Nifflas(the creator of Knytt/Knytt Stories/Within A Deep Forest) site forum featuring Nijia, and gave me some motive to play once more.


Maybe this is a pointless post, but if you like my userbar, I'll give you the code for it.

Bah, bah, bah.  :-\

That's neat.  I never thought about using the fish in my userbar.  But I like how it looks anyway.  Creating an aesthetic for one's post is important, even if mine's not very creative.

Just a thought but but have you thought of hitting esc during the simon says boss to give yourself a little thinking time?
I have been trying to beat him for a while but it's kind of hard because of my lack of co-ordination due to tearing some ligaments in my shoulder 3 months ago so I got my son to beat him for me this time... Next time when I'm fully recovered I will damn well beat him just you wait and see   :P lol

Yeah it took me about 10 trys to beat this boss. I had almost given up and was going to ask a friend to see if  he could beat it for me. I always got up to the 7th note, but the 8th being with the time limit always threw me off. But when I went to show him, I beat it first try.. go figure. Then I tried it again since he doesn't go away just to see if he would give me something else, and I beat it again, but with no prize I was left to wondering why he just stays there like he does. lol

"Crazy ol' Simon" is the most annoying boss! I spent 20 minutes on him; partly because Norton Internet Security kept on reminding me to update my subscription, causing Aquaria to lose focus at a crucial moment.  >:D

That's exactly why I use ClamWin Portable these days instead of Norton, it doesn't steal resources when you are doing other things, and is only running when you want it to run. :)
