Are you sure you're right-clicking?  You don't just absorb them you have to get close and right click.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure about right-clicking and getting close (is two pixels close enough? ;-) )

...maybe it is not possible to absorb specific kinds of projectiles. I used the ability on different shots in the Open Waters zone. Have you guys used it on other bullets than from the bosses?

As for the sequel: we don't need an entirely new game. Just use the mod editor to make some more levels and continue the story. That'll be fine for me.

Right Clicking in Spirit form
allows you to absorb enemy projectiles, projectiles disappear in the process (effectively eradicating a source of damage)

Right Click works in a small radius. Area of Effect is around the "spirit" (blue orb you control)

for every 5 projectiles absorbed
HP is healed incrementally
5 projectiles do not have to be onscreen at a time in order to heal - absorbed projectiles are still counted toward the next time you absorb (therefore you can enter and exit spirit form several times in order to 'gather' enough projectiles to heal)

moving into projectiles will damage you, so don't get too close

btw you can collect blue healing particles in spirit form by moving over them

some more information:
if attempts are made to absorb an enemy projectile in which the enemy has been destroyed, projectile will not be absorbed

Sorry, loke, but absorbing projectiles definitely does not work in spirit form (I am running 1.0.3 of Aquaria). I have tried it several times and there is no effect at all.

If it worked in previous versions, I can't tell. If that was the case, then Alec either deliberately or accidentally removed it from the game. May be he can give us the answer.

Gameplay / How far can you get in Naija's nightmare?

« on: December 22, 2007, 02:27:47 am »

I have almost beaten the game, and now I was wondering how far one can actually get in Naija's nightmare right at the beginning of the game.

I know it stops when you die, but what if you don't......

Tablet PC support would be really great for this game. It would be even more elegant to play the game with the stylus than with the mouse.
