Hi! Should I say something? I should probably say something.

Over the past couple of years, I've just been hanging out in the IRC channel, helping fgenesis brainstorm and otherwise nagging him and talking about programming projects. I'm quite a bug magnet while I'm playing games, so I'm doing a lot of beta-testing for this particular mod. I suppose I'm also a sort of sounding board that fgenesis bounces ideas off of. So I'm basically not helping with the mod per se, though I like to think that my role is important. ;)

 :o Had a bit of a heart attack when the site went down the end of November.  :D
My first thought was 'I'll never get to play this mod!  So is there a way to add me to a mailing list just in case this site disappears into cyberspace?

I've been lurking around,  very intrigued by the teasers shared and the fact that there is still some passion for this game.

Can't wait to play!  ;D

I've seen you join IRC for half a minute few days ago; that was you, right?
IRC is (and has always been) our primary means of communication, so if you're able to join #bitblot, nothing can go wrong ;)

For refererence, webchat link (it's also in my sig).

Yep, that was me. As soon as the site came back up I purposely came to this thread looking for the IRC link in your sig!  ;D
Not that I have no idea what IRC is.  :-[  (But i bookmarked it anyways.)

.... anticipation.
 ;)

Return of the Sith!
*DUN DUN DUN DUN DUNDUN DUN DUNDUNNNNNN~*
Religion is a superstitious belief created by humanity in the need to understand how and why the universe exists.
Just my opinion. Not putting down religion or anything; I prefer to call it "life lessons," a kind of way for society to teach kids the difference between right and wrong.

Man, it's been a long time since I've been here. I rediscovered Aquaria recently, and it makes me kinda sad to see the front page of the mods forum page full of spam. :/

But it's wonderful to hear that this mod is still in progress! If there's anything I can possibly do to help out, just let me know. I'm not a coder or an artist, but I'm one heck of a gamer, and could probably be a beta tester if you want me to.

Let's keep this alive! Long Live Aquaria!

This is being dealt with (sort of). Be patient. :)

Except that progress is far too slow for my taste. But yes, we're on it. At times I get the feeling that i'll be old and grey before we'll be finished, but that's just me... ::)
There was simply nothing interesting to post for quite some time, so no news here.
You can hang out on IRC if you like, or just drop in at times, that's always motivating. Plus, all the new things happen on IRC  ;D

Let's keep this alive! Long Live Aquaria!

after quite a bit of practice, i believe i've gotten the aquaria style of music down a bit.  obviously i won't be absolutely confining myself to that style, but i will largely use the same themes present in the music

https://soundcloud.com/naxcilliac/ramping-up  this track is for an area that ramps up right before a boss. 

please keep in mind soundcloud DOES lower quality of sounds by a pretty big margin (you can download the track if you want to hear it in its actual quality).  I will update this post as I enter more tracks.

A little fun thing on the side, especially for those who have used the win32 MessageBox() function for debugging.
This breaks my previous record of the longest error message:


^ Derp. Herpdarblarblderp. The OK button is somewhere far below.

Besides this, chapter 1 is nearing completion -- looks like we finally got our bearings together and all the previous work on tech + background stuff is starting to pay off.
But we're all having a busy august, and this is just the first of a few more chapters to come.

I wish I had more to contribute than lurking, but I am still checking in; looks like things are progressing, one way or another.  ::)
It's always nice to see a new post in this forum.
