I don't know if anyone started doing such thing, but a map with notes that show the place name, in Image format, would be useful...
That would be a kind of "walkthough" to know if you missed anything, still letting you figure out how to get there/how to beat the boss.
Just a suggestion. ^^
Alec: added spoiler tag!

Here's the map!Alright, the all-area'd one is done.

It's still missing a bunch of really obvious stuff, like the Blast Peg boss, Arnassi Armor, etc, but I'll fill them in when I get them on my next save.
So yeah, don't submit stuff yet, as I'm not going to edit it unless I personally come across the stuff and there's still tons of stuff I know about that I just haven't picked up yet.
Whew.

Waiting for a mirror to host original file as well...

Great Idea.
But I believe to remember a related mention that is may come in poster form, when the game is released as a box, including also the soundtrack.
By the way, I would pay up to five Dollars more (No Euros, though), if the box contains a Naja plushie. ;)
-
I was thinking about a PDF version for now, since the boxed version does not exist at the moment.
But the plushie would be great! :-*
-
I'll probably make a .PNG version, or something when I beat the game to go along with my treasure list.
-
Hey, I'm gonna start work on a world map now, unless someone else already has?
Not notationing it or anything yet, just to get all the places joined together. I'll have to move some things around due to overlaps, but it shouldn't be too hard.
-
Just a quick update to say I've nearly mapped out the entire world, just one or two more screens left. I've added all the stuff I've come across while doing it, so obviously it's still going to be missing a lot of bosses/treasures/etc until I go back through it a 2nd time and add them :D!
-
Don't worry, I'm pretty sure lotta players will be able to pinpoint the missing treasures location. ;)

Neat'o.

Nice work dhakkel!! :D

I never noticed before that the central structure in The Veil looks like a crying face...

WOW! :o There is ALOT I have yet to explore, lol. Its not really a spoiler for me since I'll have fun exploring anyway and not going to use the map, unless I'm stuck or something.
One question though, if you go through the energy temple again, would you have to kill the energy god all over again? just curious since there is obviously only one way out after a certain point.
-
Excellent work - that's really well done :D
-
Thanks, all.

Nope, the God is still dead. No bosses respawn.

Cool then :) because it is certainly fun to go through the place killing stuff :)
-
I'm curious, how does one get to the "simon says" miniboss?
-
If you found it on my map, look in the key. The Simon Says area contains one "super secret turtle", the other one is uh, in Arnassi Ruins I think.
-
Sorry, I think I must be color blind.
-
If you're being serious then that sucks :(. The game itself gives a normal turtle icon for the secret turtles, I tinted the secret ones red but I didn't want to make them overly different from the normal ones :x.
-
Just put a "Superman" Logo on the super secret turtle then! XD
-
Yes, the turtle to find the Simon Says boss is in a fish fissure in the Arnassi Ruins.
And hell, this map is beautiful. Kudos for taking the time to put that together.
-
Maybe this topic should be stickied to help other that need a map?
-
What a great map.
I wouldn't have known the turtle in the ruins was special. I found him and thought he was a just a normal turtle.
-
Okay, you're map is awesome, but where is the Dual Form located, I just couldn't seem to find it on the map?
-
Because it is not in a single place... It's not hard to get it, so just explore a bit. ;)
-
Yeah, you get Dual Form if you just proceed with the story. It isn't a reward from a boss or something like the other forms so I didn't include it on the map.
-
file removed :(
-
Just arrived in Open waters and already need the map? It is more fun without. It is always more fun to figure things out by yourself. Come back when you are really stuck. ;)
-
Yeah, I concur with Xia, don't use the map now, even if you're stuck somewhere, find other places to go to.
It's like playing the first Metroid with a complete map next to you.
-

how come when i click on the map link, it doesn't show me a map..?
-
Well I love to explore but I hate it when I have no sense of direction. I used the map from the first moment I started up the game. I relied on it to show me where I've gone and where I havn't, and sometimes where I've yet to explore altogether. There's no shame in looking at the map.
-
Not at the minimap in the game and the map in the game, there is shame to look on the map while you haven't even completed the game yet, but that's just my opinion.
And it doesn't work cause it's gone, I dunno, it was deleted or something.
-
Yeah, it is quite unfunny to check the spoiler-filled complete map to decide where to go next. Of course you have to use the in-game maps, you are totally lost without them.
-
I found out mid game that I could open my mini map as a big map. =p
Like, when I was just lost in Kelp Forest or so.
A lot of things to me were unknown until I became stuck and started trying things.
-
Happened to me. Was having this feeling of being freaking lost in the wood, if you know what I mean. Till I found the Q key :)
P.S.: Link to Aquaria Map is dead ;) Mirror anyone?
-
Was already posted that the link is dead, weĺl have to wait for the dude who made it or the dude who saved it, I could look in my cache/temp files when I get home.
-
The first post contains a link to it... I'll save it on imageshack (with tags "Aquaria", "Map") and post the link on the first post.
Argh, Imageshack resize the big things... If anyone can provide a mirror then, that'd be appreciated. (I do have a server, but ftp down atm :S )
-
Appears to be back. Hope we're not doing tons of damage to his bandwidth :D
-
The link to this map seems to be gone. Where can I find a saved or active version of it? Thanks!
-
Chibi might be posting it but because it's such a large image it's only a possibility at the moment.
I was looking for it myself last week because of a missing piece of treasure but even that map wouldn't of helped me remember what it was that I was missing :-[ I've played the game 3 times now and I can recall the map and swim around it without needing to look at the large one, But I can't recall what every treasure is and where they are found :o :-[ :o
