Um, I just thought, with the OST and all comming out, and with plans for a boxed release of the actual game on the cards, would it be possible to make it so that people who buy the OST and have already bought aquaria could get the boxed version of Aquaria thrown in? Without the serial of course, as we already have one.
I just think it would be a great insentive for us to buy the OST in the first place (not that we need one :P) but also give us people who already bought the game the ability to obtain the potential boxed copy at the same time, without having to pay for it again, or deal with extra shipping costs. You could even charge a little more for the effort going into designing the new box art and the manufacturing concerns :)
Also while I'm at it, the music which includes singing, I believe it was from the voice actor who played Naija? It would be brilliant if you could get a bonus piece or two with her talents again, her voice is stunning, and the talent which went into the music was amazing. I'd just love to have some more songs with that level of singing in them, maybe come up with some lyrics for already made songs? Just a thought :)

In other threads Alec has said he'd love to make a boxed edition. :-*
As far as the singing goes, now that is an interesting idea. :D Although its probably pretty hard to come up with good lyrics. >.<

Perhaps we could get Sir Paul to work on it for us? lol just joking but that is seriously a great idea nd she does indeed have a wonderful voice and talent :D

Well I don't think the point is "make a boxed edition" so much as "give the people who bought the game a box if they want one". The new Sam & Max games from Telltale gave their season purchasing customers a free boxed version in the mail. But I don't know if Alec and Derek can afford the expense.
-
And so they shouldn't have to. The were thinking about a boxed edition anyway. Thats why I mentioned they should send it to customers who already bought Aquaria and order the OST. That way any shipping costs are handled by the customer, and as the customer has to pay for the OST anyway, they can even throw in a few extra dollars to cover build costs. It would just mean customers who already payed for it can recieve the box and disc without having to re-purchase aquaria :)
-
I think if we end up doing a boxed copy, it would be a separate product and we'd offer existing customers a discount. But since we want it to be a special edition with a bunch of extra stuff included in the packaging, there wouldn't be any way to make it free.
-
Ahh ok, that's fine, I just didn't want to be paying the full price again for what I already bought, if you plan to put other stuff in the box, and give us a bit of a discount then I can settle for that :)
Though it still stands that I think you should get Jenna Sharp back for more of the songs ;)
-
That is exactly what I thought a boxed set should be Alec, I love little extras :D

I'm writing a new 8 minute song for the game that features Jenna. We've been recording demos this week, and hopefully we'll get her into the studio this week or next.

That sounds awesome!
Any chance we might get a preview? Lyrics, sound bytes, maybe some secrets we haven't been privy too?
Keep up the good work regardless. Can't wait for the OST, and if there is going to be a boxed edition...it will be awesome.
-
woo thats awsome, and 8 minute song? Thats fairly long but not complaning. This is a must buy for me :)
-
Oh man, now I can't wait even more than I couldn't wait before! >.<;;
-
I'm all over the discounted box set! And definitely all over the OST with a new track with Jenna! :D
