Someone just commented on my sequel mod review worried the project's dead. I don't, but I understand if people are worried. Anything you want me to tell them?

Thank you to NikonAquaMagna for those video reviews. I was reminiscing so many beloved scenes again, and it helped to hear your thoughts on the game, the characters, and even the creators. Knowing that you also cared a lot for this game and felt hurt and frustrated regarding the lack of a conclusion or sequel was cathartic.

Aw, shucks, thanks. I only discovered this game like, a year or two ago, but better late than never right? I still really enjoy it.

Just replied to your comment on youtube.

The screen tearing and other issues really aren't so bad when I'm just playing the game. I've had to fiddle around with OBS to get it to record Aquaria, and it reacts to every game I record a little bit differently. It's probably my fault. The game does run very smoothly when I'm playing it normally.

The screen flickering is where things get WEIRD. The times it happened were only ever in full-screen mode. The top or bottom half of the screen would quickly flicker black, sometimes alternating back and forth for a few seconds. I don't know what to do about that.

By updatepack, what do you mean? A beta of future content, or some fixes to the current build?

Sorry to double post, but I finished that Sequel Mod video. It feels cool to be the first person on youtube, if not the first in the world to review something.

As you can imagine, it's the last video I'll make about Aquaria for some time. Enjoy.

No prob. SOMEONE had to give the game its due praise. There just aren't that many Aquaria videos on youtube, and I haven't seen anyone upload videos of mods like "Beauty of Aquaria," so I may as well review the Sequel Mod while I'm at it. I'm editing that video together right now. As you can imagine, it's significantly shorter than either of the other two parts, but I still found quite a bit to talk about. I figured I'd include a bit of Li's opening narration to draw people in at the beginning, but I ended up being happy enough with it that I went ahead and uploaded it as a sneak peak at part 3.

Here's that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xohf5dltcS4

I just recently uploaded the part of my Aquaria review that focuses on the story. The last coupla' minutes touch upon the sequel mod. My next video will cover chapter 1. I dunno if you want me to make videos for each subsequent chapter or not, but this one will at least give people who may have trouble jumping into Aquaria because of its downer ending the hope they need of the story going somewhere.

...oooooooohhhhh. I thought I had to stay the hell away from the jellies 'cause I'm playing as an ordinary fragile human. Guess I was thinking too hard.

Okay, moving on...


Aaaand I just met the Krotities. Nice to see these guys have been replenishing their numbers. Good for them.



UPDATE-

Just beat chapter 1. I was pretty impressed by the Dunkleosteus fight. Seeing how this part of the story is over, I can't wait to find out what Naija's been doing in the meantime, and how all of the other stuff you've been showing off plays into this. Like... I was a little surprised by how abruptly things ended, because I was sort of expecting that other stuff to appear, but now I just take it as a good indication of how far along the other segments of the sequel are.

Anyway, take your time. Looking good so far.

Oh, geez. I found Naija's cape, but now I don't know where else to go (well, that I haven't already). Is there some hidden power Li already has that I just haven't used yet?
This is a frequent problem. Open a map. You should go to a place where you see sparks on. See sparks on a Melody Cave? Go there. See'em on Energy Temple? Go there instead!
It is a hard-to-find feature, so... Use it well, young padavan!


Oh, but I've already done that. Problem is the song cave is infested with giant anemones blocking the path and I assume I need to get some power up first that Li can use to destroy them. His blaster doesn't do it. Oh well.

I have a second copy of the game, now. I downloaded the update and copied and pasted it into the game's folder. ....aaaaand now I'm stuck.


No wait... NO WAIT! I GOT IT! It works!

I got the game on steam, and I can't even access other peoples' mods, but I'll happily buy the game a second time in a few days if it means getting to try the sequel mod.

You can just get an update from this post and follow the instructions there. That works perfectly fine with the steam version and nets you an updated game liberated from steam. No need to re-buy.


Yeah, I've seen that post, and I've copied the game's files, but I wasn't able to... "separate" it from steam, so I think I could still get in trouble. I really don't mind paying the ten dollars to get it from this site, though, just to be safe. It's no trouble. I just don't want to accidentally make some horrible mistake and not be able to use steam anymore or something. This is completely new territory for me.

Sorry to say, it'll be a while before I get to the review. I only have two other reviews to finish in the meantime, and I'm already editing one of them, but I'm trying to limit my presence on youtube to one big review each month. So I'm going to review something this month, I'll review the Metroid Prime trilogy in one video in May, and I'll try to get both halves of the Aquaria review done in June. It's not that far off, but just letting you know anyway. I may need some help when the time comes, but I'll follow your instructions as best as I can. If people like the Aquaria review, and I get the sequel working just fine, I'll definitely make a follow-up about it.

In a few months, I'm going to be doing a two-part review of Aquaria, and hopefully give the game some decent exposure, since hardly anyone I know in other circles seems to know about it. I have scripts written down for two parts. The first part focuses purely on gameplay with minimal spoilers, then I'll wait a few weeks before uploading the second part, which focuses on the story and what my experience was like seeing it all unfold, since I want to give people enough time that HOPEFULLY  they'll have purchased and played it by then.

Anyway, at the end of the review, I'm going to mention the sequel mod, and if possible, I want to capture some footage of it. Who knows, I might even review it in a third video. Plus, it seems nobody else on youtube has done this, so it would be cool to be the first person to do it, and again, spread the word about it.

I got the game on steam, and I can't even access other peoples' mods, but I'll happily buy the game a second time in a few days if it means getting to try the sequel mod. I just felt like letting you know and making sure you're okay with this. Hopefully I won't miss a step and mess up the downloads.
