Title: Aquaria on Steam - Why no Sale?
Post by: NBlast on November 29, 2012, 01:22:03 pm
This is a humble topic, borrowed from Aquaria's Steam Game Center.

If you didn't noticed, Aquaria wasn't discounted on any larger Steam Sale for some time now. Nearly every larger/smaller game have at least -50% price cut during the sale, but Aquaria isn't the case. There are only few of examples of games that wasn't discounted on Steam (Summer Sale, or Autumn Sale).

There sre some people that are waiting for opportunity to grab the game cheaper, since they are not sure if the game is worth it. As a mega fan and owner of Aquaria I'm sure that it is worth even more than 10$, but every price cut may convince people. Many gamers didn't discovered this gem, so maybe give them another shot?

I posted that thread because it was rather strange to see every single indie game on Steam discounted, except Aquaria. This game needs more love! and players!

Good point you have there, I bet it was just missed (like the plimus issue I pointed out to Alec via twitter not too long ago).

Is there a way to inform Alec or Derek about this case? Do they visit forums after all those years?

Derek usually not, but Alec drops in  every now and then (betwen few times a week and once a month according to my observations). I usually spam him on twitter (@infinite_ammo (http://twitter.com/infinite_ammo)) if there is something that needs to be taken care of.

It would be nice for Aquaria to get a sale when Steam on Linux is publicly released. (BTW I've got an official invitation to the beta. No longer need to right click on the icon.)

No Aquaria on Winter Sale 2012. That's sad... :(

I noticed that Aquaria went on sale on Steam as part of their Linux kickoff.  Great to see it getting some attention!  Hopefully this will bring in some new fans.

(I know I'm new to the forum, but I've loved Aquaria for some time now. Just never knew what to say here before)  ;)

Hey! There is an indie sale right now on Steam, that lists every IGF Winner with sale price. Alec! Show that you made a great game and made Aquaria on the IGF Winners list!
