I'm tempted to buy my name on the credits for that film, just so i can be in the same credits as Moe from Winnipeg. 8)

Well, I want it on a Gameboy SP.

Not a Gameboy Advance SP, just a Gameboy SP.

I am totally behind Obama all the way. I think he would do wonders.

Well, she does kinda warn you about it the first time you go near the Abyss.

I had a little look around it anyway, figured that I wasn't doing it how I was supposed to, and went to the Kelp Forest instead ;)

...because my computer lagged a microsecond is not much my fault.

I'd like to play devil's advocate here and say that the console versions never lagged for me (even on gamecube :o - also I did have it for PC and still didn't have the problem), so that is either a) a bad port, which is hardly bad game design or b) your computer being underpowered, which is hardly bad game design.

As for the camera angles, I always found it much more important to keep the rhythm than to actually watch the screen; you pretty much always have a chance to look ahead of you and scout out the whole area anyway.

Hmm now.

Sea Cucumber MkULTRA, you sound like precisely the sort of person who would not like Aquaria. So is it any surprise that you don't? It's like a ten-year-old girl going on the Halo 3 forums and saying, 'needs moar ponies' or perhaps, a so-called "hardcore" gamer buying Pippa Funnel's Wonderful Fun Happy Horse Racing And Looking After Horses Game: Horsey Challenge! and complaining that there isn't enough variety in the weapons, and some of the controls are a bit twitchy. When making the game, the designers have surely taken on board that no game will ever be 100% accessible, nor will it ever appeal to anywhere near 100% of the current market for games.

Alec and Derek have clearly made their own game. It barely even matters what their core audience thinks about the game, let alone a guy who doesn't share similar tastes with them.

If they wanted to sell 2*X copies of Aquaria, they would have already implemented all the suggestions you bring to the table, and they'd have made a game that they didn't like. I'm trying to avoid saying the phrase "sell out", because I hate it, but you'll understand what I mean if I do.

Any hints but not outright spoilers would be awesome (I've already done a search of the forums for Dual form, and both times I did it, there was no indication of what part of the game it was in/how far in).

Sounds like you already read too many spoilers  ;D
