Aquaria Anniversary ~ December 7
« on: November 30, 2010, 01:36:54 am »
I'm working on recording a podcast with Derek for the anniversary of Aquaria's release date, December 7.

It'll be the first time we've really sat down and talked for a few years now, so it should be pretty interesting. :)

I've been interviewing indie game developers for a while now, you can find the other podcasts in the series here: http://infiniteammo.ca/blog/tag/podcast/

Looking forward to it, too. By the way... Is wishing "happy birthday Aquaria" appropriate?

Ah, year 2008 was good because of Aquaria (I bought my copy in April -08). I think I'll celebrate this anniversary in December by drawing fan art :D

Looking forward to it as well. How long do you think the podcast will be?

Usually they're about 2 hours long. :)

I wonder if I'd be able to stuff it on to my MP3 player, considering it's only 128 MB. It's already full to the brim with Aquaria music and Space Interceptor: Project Freedom music (say, anyone else played that game?).

Wow, so we just finished recording and it was about 3 and a half hours. I might try to cut out some small pauses and stuff, but overall it flowed pretty quickly. I think we ended up talking about a lot more than just Aquaria, but there should be some interesting Aquaria tidbits in there to chew on.

Ah, splendid. Well then, I guess I'll need an extra large cup of coffee... or a full coffee pot, actually.

"Developer diaries" and such forms of media are always interesting. Thank you for sharing this information.

I'll surely listen to the Podcast, for the people interested out there, as Alec said, it's 3,5 hours long and you should probably know it's 135mb.

Also thanks to a certain other person on here I was talked into doing fanart myself, as Vetehinen hinted at with his earlier post. However thanks to a sudden job and me not being such a healthy person it's being horribly delayed, though I must mention I'm giving it my best!

EDIT:
Just finished listening to the whole podcast. There were a lot of topics so I won't go into every one of them, but I agreed with a lot of them. Also Alec, you sound like a great guy to talk to, same for Derek of course. There's a lot of interesting discussions. :3

God sees and knows everything, but at least he won't gossip about it.
