Title: Aquaria Hype thread
Post by: SBKT on February 21, 2007, 01:40:56 pm
Here we talk about the game and hype about it. Mainly basic protocol and stuff.

I'm advertising this game on the site I came from, IFCA. Everyone agrees it totally kicks most 3D game's asses.
Yay, glow, I have no clue how it works or why it's blocks in Firefox!

I have been promoting aquaria to some of my friends. My brother said that Aquaria looks like some cheap 2d game. I slapped him and he went back playing WoW... where he belongs.  Also i hae been advertising aquaria on different forums i frequent.

Finally, solid proof that video games encourage violence!

Oh Jack Thompson, where are you in our darkest hour? :'(

Says the man who uses a violent man known as Alucard, AKA Integra's pet for an avatar.

Aha, man, it's only MMO's that promote Violence, they suck. Maple made me so mad, dude.

Seriously, though, this game is awesome, I'm gonna tell my school about it.

As for hype for the game, I've only told one person about it on a forum I mod over, and I placed a link to it in my blog. Plus, since that person I told to is very excited about it, she's willing to create an article (http://marco-bgs.blogspot.com/2007/02/aquaria.html) about her first impressions about the game on my blog (http://marco-bgs.blogspot.com/2007/02/aquaria.html) (hopefully that will give some sort of publicity).

Plus when I get an estimate on exactly when the game will be released, I may create a banner for my blog and a siggy for my forum to show it off (along with a link to this site of course).

Haha, you guys are awesome.  The only thing I was warn against is spamming other forums or generally annoying people about the game.

But otherwise, thanks with a capital THANKS! :-*

well, that won't be a problem. I annoy everyone on every other forum. On the one I came from, it's only been a month and a half and I got nearly 4700 posts. I'm insane, yes?

Didn't you warn us about that? In fact, I think that's the first thing you did...

Hey, I'm SBKT from another forum and I tend to be a real jerk there.

Oh no he didn't <Snaps dem fingers>  :)

I think I've got at least 5 people to actually state interest at my forum, and the thread itself has around 115 views now.  Exposure is fun!  Even when you're still wearing pants.

That's a different kind of exposures, and send me nude pics nao!  :-X
That's good, though, I suppose. We need all the help we can get on this thing, right?
