it's not coming any time soon. Alex is working in other games and also needs holidays.
Dereck and Alex are having separate projects.As a fan of this game i would love as many a sequel of this game but we have to understand that game making  needs a lot of works,effort and funds.

Also search about one of alex next projects in infinite ammo web site: MARIAN.
I have the feeling it will be as good as this game.

*HACK* Alec *COUGH* >_>

None the less, he's busy and not very motivated because of the experience with Aquaria and the comments he's gotten on it.

To me, Marian is a successor to Aquaria in a number of ways. (some tangible, some less so)

I don't know if I have the confidence to make another big game though, especially now that I'm on my own.

I hope you and Derek haven't parted ways. My God, I can't believe you guys made such an amazing, inspiring, beautiful, kick-ass game like Aquaria with only two people; what sort of confidence were you looking for? Please, don't let a few pissy comments from people who couldn't make a game half as good for love or money ruin this for you. Ninety-nine percent of the people who've bought and played this are thoroughly in awe of you and Derek. This is a game made by and for people who are meticulous, creative, bright and quirky, and who dream. We live in a society of nit-pickers who focus on the glass as being half-empty instead of half-full. This coming from a person who's been missing all the memory cutscenes and I still love this game; one of these days we will figure out what gremlin has caused it, and I'm not letting it spoil my experience. You are just plain frakkin' amazing, Alec; don't let anyone try to convince you otherwise. Confidence? You need more confidence? Give it up, bud; you should be so proud of yourself.... have a little faith.

what ?¡¡¡ you are loosing all the cutscenes...
This game story is rather good this is my second playthrough to just make all the achievement and even this time is still as fun as the first time.
I remenber not many games i could play like this ... simphony of the night, super metroid, zelda a link to the past or ocarina of time,metal gear, castlevania III or Golden axe and this game (i don't care what some magazines says about giving a 7 as meristation or ign) is a classic.
It has gameplaywise, storywise,secrets,beauty,music and flying monkeys...but thinking of this is why i feel is good that marian looks like a right choice instead an aquaria 2 game.Sometimes i've seen games as Ico or Shadow of the colossus that tell part of a story and the rest is let to your imagination this is better  than an  overmade  script, and also give the oportunity to be creative to have new gameplay elements. Marian can be as good or even better than aquaria with enough time and work.We shouldn't ask for aquaria2.Also i think we have tools to make mods with a wiki and aquaria untold stories could be tell by fans.(myself have no idea about LUA or programing so i can't)

P.D: i want a marian trailerr¡¡¡¡:P

Derek and I split up a while ago, and IA is now just me.

I haven't found a positive way to talk about it yet. :)

I'm still working on projects related to IA that I intend to finish... somehow. Hopefully I can put together a new team that works better, and/or do more of the work myself.

But it is positive? At least in some ways?

Ummm I think only in the sense that it was probably inevitable. (clashing personalities) Better to find out sooner than later.
