Thanks.
I was looking for good music to listen to on my HDD and found the Aquaria folder. Sounds even better than I remember.
I didn't know about the pajama jam so that's another great one to listen to (and play some of  ).

The yellow blob is "Coward". You can get some good items from him. The better ones have lower chance, but he'll be back every time you go there. He's fast, but if you go around that area a few times, you'll see him. He's not very strong so you can get him with a shot or two, even if he's just off-screen.

Those multiplying shrimp guys - Yeah I've seen them get out of hand before. The last form you get is good to clear them away.

Disappear? Like Coward? Or like the octopus which goes invisible?

Awesome! I keep listening to your (and Alec's) amazing work for the past month. I could listen to them all day... oh wait... I have. 
I tried play some of them myself, but I haven't much talent in playing by ear.

I'm really glad you still went ahead with undiscovered waters; you really made it shine. I was also delighted that you included lost waters (probably my favourite in aquaria) in the medly. I loooove that whole sequence from The Sun Temple->Lost waters.

You get the recipe for swamp cake somewhere in Mithalas, I think. Or maybe it was somewhere high in the kelp forest. I used it effectively twice (other time was the Mithalas priests), but it's great for bosses (or anything where you need to swim around the same general area), especially the jelly fish king, since the poison lingers around and kills any new fish. I'm not sure if it damaged the king himself as well.

We love you Alec! Or at least your work.

It'd be hard enough for me to release a week's work on something, let alone several years worth, where it's nearly become part of you! But it means a lot to the OS community; hopefully you'll see results!

I thought this guy was looking hard, but fish form poison allows you to outrun the smaller ones and kill the bulk of them allowing you to make quick work of the king.
