I looooooooooooove this game.
Love it, love it, love it. Not so much the jumping parts - whic in fact I hate, but I will get over it ;)
I love this sweet poetic story - in parts it is pretty depressing and tough, but there is allways a beautyfull fight, a wonderfull scenery and a fantastic artistic touch to both the simplicity of the storyline and the environment itself, that just makes me want to spent hours I don't have, solving the puzzles for Naija, so we can reach the end and see what happens.
One of the best games I have ever played. Must suit my personality somehow!
If you ever feel like adding optional subtitles in other languages - I would be happy to work on one in Danish for free.
Oh, and thanks for the forum . Makes the overwhelmingly difficult parts light up a bit ::) lol!!!

Glad to hear this from you :)
As for the unconditional admiration, spread the word about Aquaria through the world - it's the best we all can do ;)

This seems as good a place as any for my gushing.
Oh wow. WOW. I just finished with all the treasures and memories, the ending is so great. I've got to say this story and the art was unbelievably gorgeous, the music was stunning - easily in the class of multimillion dollar games. The whole thing was a pleasure to play from start to finish, even the frustrating sunken city singing puzzle, the trick to which I figured out AFTER being walked through it by kind forumers, and Veil "bubble hopping" part.
Overall this is one of the best games I've ever played, and I've played some pretty damn good ones. You guys have a bright future in the industry if you play your cards right.
I cannot wait until Aquaria II: The Aquarianing (disclaimer: made up)!
P.S. Alec, I know you need Derek to return from IForgetWhereia to make a soundtrack (and even then I don't know where it fits in the priorities), I will be eagerly awaiting that particular release! The music was my favorite aspect of the game.

Aquaria breaks any scoring scale that I could possibly put it on.

Man, I've been keeping up to date on the one persons negative review, and I'm so confused by it. Judging the game entirely on the demo release, basising his criticism towards the full release without ever even giving it a try.
I just can't say how much I love this game!
The only constructive criticism I can give is add effects of recipies in recipe menu.
;D :D ;D :D ;D :D ;D

Yep :)
I know a game is great when the map is so gigantic that my "current location" is a small white speck in a giant grey ocean and I think "Man, I wish there was more."
Also, IForgetWhereia is Australia :P
Oh and as for constructive criticism... Hmm, sharks with frickin' laser beams on their heads? Hooray for outdated Austin Powers references!

I wish I knew how to mod 8)

I wish I could remember all the praise I've already given this game in a least 5 other threads.
