Yeah, buying Aquaria a third time was it definite worth (~ not to mention the other games)

I will try with a few other guys of my class to make a port for the Pandora 

Would also be interesting to see a port for upcoming plattforms like iPhone OS (~ iPad) or Android, since more people got attracted to tablets this year. Just time can tell what will happen

@Titch: I guess it will cost more if the package will include such a plush, but I think it will be defenitly worth the money (don't forget it isn't easy to produce a high qualatiy, limited boxed version with extra stuff) 

I would appreciate something like a nice Naija (or even a small pet) plush too (beside the magnets of the Macworld Expo ). Perhaps you could talk with Danielle (Ed's woman) about such a thing (she even offers individual commisions for 35$, hopefully mine will arrive soon ): blog & shop.

Sorry if I am asking the obvious here, but is the Version 1.1.1 for Windows DRM free? Does that mean that I can have it simultaneously installed on my home PC, on my laptop, and on my work's PC, without any problems (and winthout being illegal)?

Yes we can....

I wan't to say: Yes you can 
(I even did this with the old Version 1.0.3, but I had to use the licence Key 2 times to activate the game)


Lets see what the coming Patch 1.1.2 fixes

Could you post the sheet music for that piece Alec? Thanks! It's much truer to the soundtrack than my halfhearted attempts. 

Hopefully the arrangements will be included in the OST booklet, so I can scan some "easy ones" (are there some tracks, that are playable even for beginners ?), enlarge/print them and play some by myself (although I am aware, that it definitly won't sound as good as yours Alec) 
[or in a easier way, perhaps you could just put them as some kind of copy protected PDF documents on the CD ]

Than how about a "who-copies-Alecs-Pajama-Jam-Session-1-at-best" 
At least we could try something else, perhaps I could cook a "Dream Meal" in some kind of sleepwalking mode.
Mh, lets see what the christmas days will bring

I would suggest some kind of "pre-invastigation" would cover at least a few ones, too see how many people are interested in it (paying money for an pre-order bounds more people than just a simple "one-click-vote" and you could offer a 5$ discount, instead of 25$, just 20$ like the game). Hopefully your & Jennas work will be as good as allways (= awesome) 

For the Special Edition: I am really looking forward to it,  since the game showed me what a Independent Gamedeveloper could do (long time before I recognized WoG, Gish or CC) compared to the "mono-mass comercial market", at which companies sells often the name or the graphic of a title to attract customers (less than the core content, like the story)...
If you do a Special Collector Edition (perhap you could mention that it is limited too 1000, so you could calculate the costs ?), I hope we could still make it unique by giving you our names for the title screen etc.; moreover it would be great if some goodies will be included (such as a printed Manual, an Artbook, a Map of Aquaria and some other bonus) 

[PS:  I don't know what you thought about the price, but if it's for me; I am willing to pay nearly any amount up to 80$, which I think is normal for a rare limited Collection Edition (if it should be cheaper, I still wouldn't complain)  ]

Support / Bought the game and still haven't recived my emails #2

« on: June 08, 2008, 06:59:43 pm »

Hio Bit-Blots (Alec & Derek),

like in the topic here i would like to get the E-Mail with the Link to the Game. I bought it for my sister as a gift at Wednesday (= for 4 days), but i didnt receive a answer (just Plimus message in which they write they send me the Mail, when they get the money).
I sended you a E-Mail with the referenznummber at your "admin bit-blot" adresse.
Hopefully you can help us to get the game today (it should be her birthday present for the 08.06, thought 3 days to check the money would be okay Oo).

[Edit]

Okay thanks (for the help/support), got the Mail with the download
