I decided to post a piece about Aquaria on my Blogger page please let me know what you think about it and I don't mind honesty if it's helpful.

The adver is nice, especially since Indie games don't get nearly the attention the deserve.
Personally I would think a more epic feel to the advertisement would have been helpful as well as some screen shots from some of the more unusual areas, like the kelp forest or the icy veil.
The links are a very clever touch, as no one truly knows the majesty of Aquaria until they play it, or at the least see it in action.
Love how the only thing that would make Aquaria not he best Indie game ever would be a sequel :)
More power to ya for getting the word out! :D

I'll get some screenshots of the other areas once I've beaten the last boss Shadow. Or is it possible to play one of the older saves without losing the last one?
Thank you for your helpful critique that is a good idea :D

I also blogged (http://robert.walkertribe.com/2008/01/review-aquaria.html) about Aquaria a while back.

Nice write up Roger I wish that I were as clever with them, just knowing grammar is not enough when it comes to writing something that grabs the reader is it :( Oh I have tried but I always fail after the first sentence..
Has anyone else done anything to advertise Aquaria on their web sites or blogs, and if so why not post a link to them here as I am sure that we would all like to see them, the more the merrier :D

Thanks for the compliments, though I don't know who Roger is... :)

Oh damn my bugbear strikes again, sorry Roger I am well known for gettig names mixed up :-[ I did mean you as you so gentlemanly hinted :-*

Sorry Roger? XD

Damn I need sorting out sorry ROBERT ::), I'm not shouting I'm just making sure that I get it through my own thick skull :-[ ::)
-
Ah, don't worry about it. :)

It looks like I seem to be making an habit of appologisng and saying thank you to you Robert but I refure to be embarrased by doing so, thank you again for letting me off :-*

My ridiculously crappy webpage The Flying Monkey Apparatus (http://www.theflyingmonkeyapparatus.com) still has a pretty gushing review up. Too bad I've been too busy with my real life job to actually make the place not suck. The site serves no real purpose at this point, so it isn't like anyone will ever see it.

I kind of like the look Quemaqua it doesn't need much to make it look really neat, and your pasteup of Aquaria looks very good, I'm just sorry that I don't feel much up to reading it today as I've got a lousy headache :(

I was actually surprised when I saw the look of the site. It is very strange I'll admit, but it is no less likely to be seen than any of the other blogs int eh world. The Aquaria section surprised me thoroughly. There is so much detail going into the three page section, and the screen shots are so vibrant and varied. Anyone who see's that part of your site will be hooked on Aquaria, I'm sure of it.
Kudos on spreading the word. The more people here about Aquaria, the better.

Oh wow, I hadn't read that one yet...

Silverflagon,
I just wanted you to know that I thoroughly enjoyed your piece on Aquaria. Very nice indeed, and hit all the major points of the game as well. Had I not been following Aquaria more than a year before it's release and had not already played the game, I think this review would seriously have swayed me to purchase the game if not try it right away. None-the-less, thank you for the enjoyable read.
