Well you have to find a way to charge yourself again.  You might not have noticed it...but he is vulnerable in one spot just before he fires his mega-laser...but that timing is a B*TCH.

Yeah I just beat it. Sorry for making you post.

I agree that time does suck.

Anyway it was a great game guys and I'll be sure to look at your future games for my buying decisions.

Damn it I'm stuck again.

Not to sound hopeless but now that his eye is out I don't know what to do.

I did that super form song and went into naija's pink form and damaged him once but that's it I could only do it once. What do I do after I damaged him already in super form?

You got it pretty much.  But you have to use the charged sunburst in sun form.  Not just sing the song.

I see thank you.
Ugh Action-Adventure games always have final bosses I can't figure out to beat.

Yes bind it.  Using the bind song.  Not to be confused with "blind" which involves light.

So I shoot it, then I blind it (sun song), then I bind it (bind song)?

blind the eye, bind it. repeat until it is out. Then something will change and you have to do something else, including Li.

Bind it?

Okay I've finally got to the final boss in the game but I can't figure out how to beat him.
I beat his first 3 forms but now I"m on to what I think is the last one (where you are fighting him in his giant form in some different dimension.
I shot his eye until it turns into some red looking knitting ball and I can't damage it anymore. After this point I just can't figure out what to do, I can't hurt him anywhere else.

Where do I neeed to attack next?

Have you tried using Hot Soup or one of the advanced soups to inccrease your speed?  That will also increase the height and distance you will boost out of the water.  As for the area he refers to in the eastern side of that bowl, he's talking about the cave with the tent.  You may notice a foreign presence around that area.  Try chasing it.

I didn't know that it would increase my jumping ablitiy.

Also cave with tent?

Finally do you mean that red bird?

I just don't know what else to do. There is a little space that I can see in the Western veil above the save point but I can't get there even if I use the beast form.


Is there like a gliding abilty or something similar?

Anyway I just don't know what to do next can someone tell me where I should go please?

It looks like you missed an area in the Veil. Go back there and explore on the eastern side of the left bowl.

If you mean that thing that's faded to the right of it I already went there.

Alright I'm back people.

Anyway I feel as if I've done everything necessary and I just don't know what to do next.

Caution MASSIVE Spoilers!

Here's a map of everywhere I've explored.



As you can see I've been everywhere in the game, however when I go to the deep dark waters and go to the bottom right end I end up in 2 dead ends.

One is with a giant gold metal door, with the logo on these crates that the octopus is sitting on, on it.



Another place I go to (this is if I just go straight right) is one where I hear a voice saying that "You'll be mine forever my love!" (or something similar) that is really deep and I eventually find a giant rose with a stem full of thorns that I cannot go into.

I've pretty much done everything I could think of in the game except fight a wall climbing crab monster that I can't figure out how to beat but he looks like a "side boss" nothing primary (please tell me if he's needed).

So does anybody know what I should do next?

That above was a hint, just in case you haven't noticed. If it's not enough for you to figure it out, try to light the lamps in the whale in a special order.

Thanks. I've put about 15 hours into this game and I'm still very impressed with it. I mean I can't believe this was only made by 2 people. Anyway I hope that I've almost beat it, I'm going to explore some more and see what else I can find.

Come on people.  This thread was STICKIED.  The question was already answered.  He didn't have to be cautious at this point.

Why would I read a thread full of spoilers when I'm not done with the game?

I'm currently at this part right here.



I've entered inside a whale by learning a song, and I realize that I have to sing the same notes the squid does, yet the door will never open up. Even if I go to that one gate with the Wutang like sign shown on those cardboard boxes it won't open. I just don't know what to do, what do I do with those notes and how do I open that barrier to the pearl behind the squid?

My 2 cents:

Right now I don't think we could handle working on a sequel, because we really just feel like working on something new.

That said, the sequel would be quite different from the original and involve a number of new ideas and game play concepts, so I don't think it would feel like a rehash either.

I also think it would benefit the sequel if we waited a while and came back to do it at a later point in our lives when we have a different perspective on things. (no idea when that would be) It would be interesting thematically, we could kind of challenge our old ideas.

I see, thanks.

I can't wait to see your next project.

Well I heard that Derek and Alec discussed about making a new game, one that I believe that doesn't have anything to do with Aquaria.

And I know that Alec said that they did "plan" for a sequel but they don't know if they're ever going to make it. I hope they do though. That's all I know.

And no need to be sorry, would've just been more handy. ^_^

I hope they do make a sequel. Aquaria is the first open-ended action adventure game since.....Zelda on the NES? I'd like to see them evolve the genre once more and put some polish. Though the game is great there are some rough edges around the game, but that's really normal for a new take on a genre.

I'm personally very excited to see what they'll do next.
