Title: Just finished, thanks for a great game experience!

Hey guys,

just finished Aquaria (the full ending), and wow, what can I say!

I was almost done the game, but I got a little apprehensive after the King Jelly fish battle (tough bugger  ;D). The ending was hard (for me anyway), I had to try about 6 times, got more prepared, and finally nailed it.

I have to say that this game experience... scratch that... journey is one of the best I've played. This reminds me of the Ninja Gaiden/FF3(US version)/Grandia 2 days! IMHO this game, and others like it are works of art, truly are. This is one of the few games where everything comes together in harmony (lets call it a minor 3rd  :)).

From what I understand there were basically only two guys that created Aquaria. Alec and Derek, making a game of this scope must have taken a lot out of you. Hopefully you got a sense of accomplishment from it, because you should!! The music is awesome (I already bought the soundtrack w/ signed poster!). The story is what really pulled me in, truly truly top drawer, I'm talking like Firefly level of storytelling. You could make this into a series of novels.

And on top of it all, a prairie boy! I'm one province to the left.

Thanks for creating a great universe for us to get drawn into. Looking forward to Marian, and any other future projects you have.

Take care all.  :-*
