Post by: illithid235 on December 08, 2007, 03:26:59 am: I can't access the site to buy it!! *whines*

I guess this is a good sign for Derek and Alec though? I hope it's not a whole day before I can get it.... regardless...

CONGRATULATIONS!!! This is an amazing feat you've accomplished, Bit Blot. You should be extremely proud of yourself for crafting a unique piece of art.

Thanks Bit-Blot for this pretty awesome birthday present, just for me! ^^

Though, there is a bug with the HTTPS website of plimus... I used the HTTP version. Though not as secure as the other (https verison), it worked for me.

Didn't have an issue with the https:// myself. Everything worked fine and the transaction went securely and smoothly.

Thanks, Alec & Derek and everyone else who helped make Aquaria what it is.

It's greatly appreciated.

Same here... Been refreshing the page all day long, and it's past 3.30 AM over here now, but I've been waiting for what seems forever now, so I refuse to sleep until I've played with it a bit (http://img472.imageshack.us/img472/7523/officechairbyk6yx9.gif)

Cheers.

And a big cheers to a fine gentleman from the edge forums who pointed me, and others, in this game's direction. I didn't even know it existed until 5 days ago!

Post by: Lingwo on December 08, 2007, 04:13:33 am: Finally :)
Been following this game for ages. Finally it is out, i thought i'd join.
Games like this is what makes the indie games scene stand out.

Just have to wait for the secure server to work. I would use the unsecured method but i don't trust my PC :p

Post by: illithid235 on December 08, 2007, 04:15:25 am: Okay, stinky PayPal. I had to fuss with some account problems, but I got it sorted out, and I'm downloading now!! I really hope it runs smoothly, because I have no programming knowledge whatsoever... looking forward to immersing myself!!

Post by: Balthier on December 08, 2007, 04:41:51 am: I'm so jealous of you guys right now.
I just tried the demo and the bit I played was surprisingly good, amazing indeed.
I know this game had a lot of hype on the "indie scene", so I approached it with caution, and now I'm deeply impressed.
The only bad thing now is that I don't have the money (plus the game is twice as expensive for me, here in my country), so I'll probably be able to play the full version months from now. :(

Okay, now I'll go read this really good book I just got as a birthday gift. Once again, congrats Alec and Derek for releasing the game (and the other people involved in it too, of course).

Post by: Quemaqua on December 08, 2007, 04:44:06 am: What happened to the idea of shipping a CD alongside the download purchase? It makes me sad to see that this isn't there. I guess at some point this officially became download only? That makes me sad. But I'm pathetic and refuse to wait, so... a-downloading I go. At least once I reinstall XP on my new HDD. It better go fast. Daddy needs to swim.

We'd love to do a CD version later on, but we wanted to get the game out first. We'll see how things go. :)

Post by: Quemaqua on December 08, 2007, 04:53:04 am: I trust you guys will make an upgrade available for those of us who purchased already if it's in your power to do so, and if not... I'll figure something else out. I've been behind this project too long and hoped too much for its success to bother waiting. Great to see you guys still active on the forums and responding to people. That's one of the things I like best about you both.

Here's to a great round of launch-day sales! I'm off to get this computer in better shape so I can play for the next two days until my eyes dry out and explode.

It's party time!

Going to buy the game right now.
